Answers.

60s. On the left is Ray Brady, on the right is his brother Pat (they both signed from Millwall at the same time in 1963), while Peter Springett (brother of England international Ron) is in the middle.

70s. Bit convoluted this one, but former Stone the Crows vocalist Maggie Bell sang the theme tune for the late 70s TV series Hazzell, which was based on a series of books jointly written by Terry Venables, named after his one time Loftus Road team mate, Tony Hazzell.

80s. Paul Giles.

90s. Mark Kelly was a sub in the Third Round FA Cup tie between the teams in January 1990 and started in the replay at Loftus Road, which was won 2-0 by the home team after a goalless draw in the first match. Seamus Kelly was on the bench in both matches for the League Cup tie between the teams in August 1999 – both sides won the away leg 2-1 as City made it through on penalties.

00s. Brett Angell was in the Queens Park Rangers team beaten 4-0 by City at Loftus Road in November 2002.
