QUEENS PARK RANGERS
One other aspect we’ve met 14 instances within the Premier League is Queens Park Rangers, who had two stints within the prime flight between its inception and 2015. However not like Portsmouth, QPR have by no means crushed us within the division. Founder members of it in 1992/93, the West London membership remained within the PL for 4 seasons earlier than being relegated. They returned in 2011 after a 15-year absence and stayed for 3 seasons earlier than dropping again into the second tier. Two United legends, Mark Hughes and Ray Wilkins, have managed QPR in opposition to us within the Premier League, in 2012 and 1996 respectively.
Basic match: Queens Park Rangers 1 United 1 (1995/1996)
Wilkins was the person in cost at Loftus Street when United visited in March 1996. Having by no means mustered something higher than a 0-0 draw in opposition to Sir Alex Ferguson’s aspect, the hosts took a shock lead after 64 minutes, due to a Denis Irwin personal objective. QPR have been threatened by relegation and three factors in opposition to two-time Premier League title winners United would have been a large plus for Wilkins and his aspect. Nonetheless, it wasn’t to be, as Eric Cantona struck proper on the demise to say a late level for the Reds. Little did we all know, on the time, that this could be the final time United would play within the Premier League at Loftus Street for 15 years.
