The Rise of a Ranger

March 17, 2016April 13, 2026 Site Admin

Back on a cold Christmas Eve night in 1969 I came into the world at the world’s best hospital, and so my love for West London was born. My first memories are from Wendell Road, just off the Askew Road. My Dad worked at Claridges and my Mum worked part-time. We went to Ravenscourt Park Continue reading

QPR Podcast

Simon Hall, Chris Charles, and Paul Finney bring you the most entertaining podcast ever to come out of W12. The regulars are joined weekly by QPR players old and new as well as the odd celebrity fan in this funny and often controversial podcast.

This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Open All R’s.

Interview with Steve Cook
byPaul Finney

Andrew Scherer and Erin Thompson are joined by QPR defender Steve Cook to talk through his 3 years at the club. They discuss his favourite moment at the Rs, building a positive dressing room, guiding younger players, which Ted Lasso character he would be, and how he’d approach management (which is perhaps not quite what you’d expect).
