    14: Anthony Philip David Terry Frank Donald Stanley Gerry Gordon Stephen James Oatway

    More commonly known as Charlie to friends, family and the football world, Oatway was named after the QPR's 1973 first team squad due to his parents being huge fans of the team. The name Charlie came after an aunt told his parents he would look a right Charlie if he was named after the entire squad. Since that moment the name Charlie has managed to stick.

    I remember when he was born. I used to go to school with his elder brother Roy and they used to live in Loftus Road. They lived in the first house to the right of the Loftus Road entrance.
