STOOPID GAME
It doesn't go back far enough for me

Hate this STOOOPID game

EDIT Is it because the Third division N and S happened about 1958...and they haven't got those records????
 
I was born in June xxxx.

We had finished third in what is now the second division and had just missed out on promotion to the first div (Championship) by 2 points. (Remember it was 2 points for a win in those days.)

Bury and Walsall were promoted. Watford were in 4th place, 6 point behind us.

Our best result that season was a 9(nine)-2 home win against Tranmere!

I may be a tad older than you .................. consider me your older brother, ha! ( 2nd of June 1961 )
 
Second in the old third division after 14 games. 1 point only behind Bristol Rovers and 2 games in hand.

Know your place little brother, I was born on the 1st!! (A palindromic birthday 1-6-61 and no, it is NOT my Pin number!)
 
Although I was born on a Saturday (during the reading of the football results at 5 p.m.) QPR did not play that day. But we did two days later on Monday 23 January 1961, winning 3-1 away at Newport County, keeping us 2nd in the old Division 3. But we finished 3rd, Bury and Walsall promoted.

By reading the other posts I realise I was born in the same year as Eamon and Aussie. Sorry for outing your age Eamon......but I am 6 months your senior.

Unbelievable, I couldn't win a chook raffle even if l bred it myself.
Oh well, it's always good to have a big brother to look up to and to buy me beers when in need.
 
I hadn't known that I was born on a Tuesday until I looked at these stats, so the previous Saturday we had won and we also won the next Saturday too, not bad considering we had ended an eight game losing spell a couple of weeks before that.
We eventually finished 18th in the old Third Division (South) that season.
