            Crewe away when George Santos scored one and was simply everywhere around the pitch.

            My fave recently was the 2-0 at Burnley when Vine run 60 yards with the ball being chased Keystone Kops like by Kirarly and half of Burnley's defence. Never celebrated a winning goal for so long before it hit the back of the net:boss:

              Away at Wycombe about 5 years ago. Gale force winds, so the ball never left the penalty box area in front of us, even when there was a goalkick. Most surreal game I've ever been to.

                A few obscure games 4 u! Yeovil (a) FA cup at old ground 3.0 (think Falco was on scoresheet?). Wimbledon (a) FA cup at selhurst 1.2 (awesome away following). Huddersfield (a) 1.2 ( day we got relegated, son and heavily pregnant wife in tears. and some northern **** tauntng us with a "weakest link" banner.) Cambridge (a) 1.2 (remembered 4 me and my son almost crushed by stampede as it kicked off when some plum of a copper returned a "coin" back in2 crowd!) Wigan (a) 2.1 (last minute winner and the congo on train home 2 the tune of DouDou M'Bombo!!!!!)

                  Bank Holiday at Everton 5-3 was also a great memory

                  o-3 at goodison park, i think mentioned by someone above, if i recall it was the year after the ferdinand hatrick, great team performance, I had parked about a mile away on walton road and walked back amongst eveton fans who to a man were gushing with praise about the qpr performance. seem to think bradley allen got all three but could be mistaken, can anyone confirm?

                    Yes Bradley Allen got all 3. Seem to recall a Sinton hat trick against Everton at LR, so three QPR players got hat tricks against them in about 3 years.

                      Luton away in mid 80's when they had an away fan ban - there were loads of Rangers in the home ends, many of whom had to become members of LTFC to have the ability to buy a ticket. Others were invited as 'guest' by Luton fans who probably hated the away fan ban.

                      Oxford United away - always packed out the away end

                      Blackpool away FA Cup 3rd rd in early 90's - had a great weekend on the beer as did a few thousand other Rangers that weren't just there for the game.

                      Yeovil Town FA Cup 3rd round - Yeovil were a non league team at the time and were famous for pulling off Cup upsets. We won 3-0. Falco scored at least one goal. Probably two. Trouble after the game. Police escort back to the train station - must've been a good hour walk down country lanes. We soon got tired of singing and 'larging it' with fields and sheep either side of us lol

                        Yes, there were about 10 of us standing outside after a Luton fan had got us some tickets. Plod picked up that we were QPR although no colours, and said "We know who you are, if theres any trouble, you're all nicked, no matter what". Charming. It didnt kick off, there were more QPR there when the ban was on than in the previous season

                          Had a bit of a mare at Southampton a couple of months back.Drunk 3/4 of a bottle of Vodka on the train there,plus more beers in the pub before and at half time.Well tanked at the end.Took 1 and a half hours to walk to the train station.Fell asleep at the station.Woke up to find the last train to Reading had gone.

                          Ponced a lift of a coach to the station at the airport and headed back to London.Changed at Basingstoke,then Reading.Eventually got in just after midnight.

                          7 hours to get home from Southampton FFS!!.:embarrassed:
