An Emotional Day
QPR 0-3 Southampton
Southampton ran out comfortable winners in what was a very emotional day for everyone involved with Queens Park Rangers Football Club following the tragic death of Ray Jones. In respect, I won't be compiling a normal report but am posting a selection of photos from the day. I would also like to mention and thank Southampton FC and their supporters who respected the day impeccably.
QPR: Camp, Curtis, Stewart, Mancienne (Cullip 84), Barker, Rowlands, Leigertwood, Bolder, Ephraim, Blackstock (Nygaard 69), Sahar (Nardiello 69). Subs Not Used: Cole, Bignot.

Thanks Lofty. It has always been said that your blog represents what it means to follow a team every week, in good times and in bad. Everyone was thinking about Ray this week so thanks for sharing this.
There was a good article the other day saying that QPR was sure to have a good tribute to Ray since the club is getting far too much practice mourning its own young stars.

Well done for A fitting tribute Lofty. It was a very emotional day, and it is the first time i have ever left the game not caring about the result or the performance as it did not seem to matter in the context of what had gone on. A big thanks to the Southampton Team & supporters, the behaviour was a credit to football. Rest in Peace Ray and thanks for the memories.

Thanks all for your support, I thought the occasion warranted a pictorial tribute rather than my usual report ramblings.
