Wolves 2 QPR 4

[@niceperson5962]

The more I see these old games and hear the those commentators and the names of all those players I realise what an important part it all played in my life. And although it was all those years ago it still seems like yesterday. The players and the soundtrack seem so familiar. I know all the players ... not like today. Just nostalgia I suppose ... I miss those football times so much.

[@carpediem4290]

Beautiful football QPR...Wolves too. That's "real" football when world was "real"...

[@converse91970]

Mick Leach volley an absolute beauty!

[@tonymack66]

Dave Thomas lives in my area and I saw him in the local supermarket just before lockdown couple of months ago.

[@LED1512]

Ask him if he wants to come back to Boro when this is all over and play outside left. That QPR side were spectacular at their best. Bowles could just wonder about for huge swathes of a game then pop up and steal the show, what a maverick. Gerry Francis was incredible in the hoops too

[@paulhollis8879]

Fairly sure that poor old Dave is almost sightless now.

[@tonymack66]

@@paulhollis8879 Yeah. That's right he has a guide dog to help him, but physically he still looks as fit and lean as when he was a player.

Hugh Johns, what a legend!

[@1061andy]

I loved it too - great ground spent many happy times there in the 70s

[@dominewimbury2039]

Dave Clement and Mickey Leach 😔 both passed away far too young, approximately ten years apart. Dave in 1982 aged 34 due to suicide, poor man, and Mick in 1992 aged 44 due to cancer 😔🙏💙

[@BetaCam200]

(05:40) - quick start by Phil Parkes, then Dave Thomas at incredible speed runs at the Wolves defence before Bowles ticks it in. What a goal!

[@harryshiambis9559]

My beloved blue and white hoops. Today's team should watch Francis,bowles,Webb and Parkes,a lesson in playing for the jumper.

[@andrewwise479]

Star Soccer with Hugh Johns!

[@wellington-yh8rc]

We used to get star soccer too on a sunday afternoon , great comms by the wonderful Hugh Johns and I remember a young Gary Newbon presenting . Always had to wait till the end of a really boring political talk show that was on before that my dad watched ..oh happy memories though .

[@grahamd4764]

John Delve the substitute. I remember he used to frequent The Target pub on the A40 Northolt. Of course it is no longer there but the roundabout where it sat is named after it.

[@mjh5437]

A rare appearance for Delve.

[@deanferguson9008]

The Target pub you mention , was where the punk group The Ruts played in thier very early days. Sadly now a McDonald's.

[@derekincambs5165]

QPR scoring four goals. A rare event these days.

[@tonyjordan205]

Joyous

[@chrismaynard6016]

Still remember THE great Hugh Johns.......and it's Kenny Hibbitt with his LEFT PEG and of course ONE NUDDDDDDDDING STOKE.....GREENHOFF!! Wonderful words. Great memories. Good football too surprisingly?

[@christown2827]

Loved the commentaries of "Uncle Hugh" Jones.

[@christown2827]

Johns!!

[@RecordMogul]

I remember seeing both Phil Parkes playing at Loftus Road one year. Remember that the second Phil Parkes started off at Walsall before joining QPR. But what a game for Mick Leach who I think was still getting booed at Rangers at this time. Imagine winning that penalty! I wish I could remember the game that Leach that played that turned it around for him at QPR when he became beloved by the crowd.

[@colinbaker3916]

Liverpool 1975. He came on as a sub and scored the second goal in a 2-0 win, the first time Rangers beat Liverpool. Leach kept Hollins out of the side with some brilliant performances. Sadly, he died quite young.

[@mjh5437]

@@colinbaker3916 I played at Loftus Road in an "unofficial" testimonial match for Mick which was organised by readers of the two Rangers fanziines of the day-"A Kick Up The R`s" and "The Whingeing Donkey"....the match footage can be seen here on YT elsewhere.

[@swaldron5558]

No tattoos, no names on back and no snogging after scored goal.

[@cbak12sg]

Rangers' third goal (with that fifty yard sprint by Dave Thomas) came second in ITV's Golden Goals that season.

[@daveb8370]

Dave Thomas actually had his socks pulled up

[@Daniel-deMerrivale]

Great football, great players loved it all back in the day. Don’t watch it now.

[@celticwarrior1365]

Mick was only 44 years old when he died from cancer, very sad.

[@tomellis4324]

@@markpaulo269 Why? He was a QPR player?

[@markpaulo269]

@@tomellis4324 He used to miss out on a lot of easy chances and his passing was not good often ruining our attacking play, this I believe from the 77/78 season onwards, not saying he deserved it but we were going through hard times the team was struggling ending with relegation the following season.
