A LEGEND
Stan Bowles: On This Date...At this Moment...Thirty Five Years Ago, Bowles Started Becoming a QPR Legend
-
On this day, Thirty Five Years ago...Stan Bowles became an instant QPR Hero...
Bowles made his debut at home to (pre-Brian Clough's) Nottingham Forest, September 16, 1972, two or three days after signing from Carlisle for a club-record 110,000 pounds. Bowles, wearing from that very first game,
HIS #10 shirt. Within an hour, he had made the first goal for Don Givens...and scored the second...as Gordon Jago's QPR won 3-0 (Andy McCulloch getting the third). And QPR, of course, went on to promotion.
QPR's team that day.
