    5 years ago this very day, many of us here were learning the tragic death of one of our young players Ray Jones in a car crash in the early hours.
    For me it was my 'JFK' moment, and I remember what I was doing and where I was when I heard the tragic news like it was yesterday.

    Ray Jones RIP. you will not be forgotten.

    I remember driving back home from a gig and just caught the news which mentioned a football player has been killed in an accident. when I eventually got home at 330, I switched on Sky and saw it was young Ray.

    A terrible loss for his family, friends and QPR. the boy had an abundance of talent and Im sure he would have won a England cap or two by now

    RIP Ray - gone but never forgotten

    31 will always be the number Jones will always be the name.

    Gone but definitely not forgotten.

    RIP Ray Jones

    All of the above. Remember his goal against Cardiff, cross by Nick Ward, sliding finish from Ray in the final minutes of the game.
