Queen's Park Rangers Club Profile

Queens Park Rangers Football Club originated from the amalgamation of two teams in 1885 and was originally known as St Judes, changing to its present name two years later. The club moved to Loftus Road in 1917 and has been based there ever since, bar two short stays at White City.

In 1920 they became founder members of Division Three South and remained stuck in that division until 1948, when Rangers enjoyed a fine season, winning the league and making it through to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

There was a quick return to the lower standard, however, and when the divisions split they settled into the new Third Division until a burst of activity in the late 1960s. In 1967, under the management of Alec Stock, Queens Park Rangers won both the Division Three title and the League Cup, after a thrilling victory over West Brom in the first League Cup Final staged at Wembley.

This was followed by another promotion to the First Division but the rise proved too sudden and they were relegated the following season.

When QPR next went into the top flight they were better prepared for it and in 1976, with a side containing the likes of legendary Queens Park players Frank McLintock, Phil Parkes, Gerry Francis and Stan Bowles, they were pipped in the race for the League title by Liverpool.

QPR reached two major finals in the 1980s, losing narrowly to Spurs in the 1982 FA Cup Final and being beaten by Oxford in the 1986 League Cup Final.
