All the OSC Committee members join me in sending their heartfelt sympathy to Ron’s wife Teresa and all his family in their great loss. It was at the age … Continue reading →

For the semi – final, second leg at Loftus Road, my Dad took me and my Brother to the game on the Metropolitan Line. We had moved to the East End by then but I was born in Paddington.

As … Continue reading →

The respect and pride amongst QPR fans for your lap of honour is something I will not forget. Best of luck for the future. Garry Coady – Ireland QPR Joe, many thanks for all your hard work and … Continue reading →

In my Youth Report for last Season, I pointed out the problems that Joe Gallen had had in getting his U18 team to be CHAMPIONS. In it I said, “This highlights what a good Manager and Coach he is.” On 28th June, he was called to a meeting and then ‘Laid Off’. Well, at least Joe has one thing in common with Fabio Capello (ex – Real Madrid), they both finished as Champions and lost their jobs !!! Joe came … Continue reading →

This episode is from Series 3 and was first transmitted in January, 1995. The main two characters are ‘Richie Richard’, played by Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson plays ‘Eddie Hitler’. They live in a squalid flat in Hammersmith and spend much of their time together in it, insulting and fighting each other which often results in all out violent slapstick. In the opening scene, Richie has just finished reading ‘War and Peace’ and has become bored because he hasn’t seen … Continue reading →
