Miguel Sanchez Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 (edited) Week 8 update One death this week, former Queens Park Rangers maverick Stan Bowles: Stan Bowles, QPR legend and former England international, dies at 75 | Football | The Guardian Quote Tributes were paid on Saturday night after the death was announced of the former QPR and England forward Stan Bowles at the age of 75. Bowles, who had lived with Alzheimer’s disease since 2015, was widely regarded as one of the game’s great entertainers during his 1970s heyday, and was an enduringly charismatic figure. In a statement, QPR said they were now planning a “fitting tribute”, calling Bowles “a darling of the Loftus Road terraces [and] undoubtedly one of the greatest players to have ever pulled on the famous blue and white hoops. Many would argue that he is the best.” The club already has a stand named in his honour. QPR also put up a nice tribute video: Is something lost from football in the age of professionalism and money, in that players like this don't and can't really exist any more? Probably. Bowles died at 75 so he's worth 50 Base Points for @Moomintroll. He also gets a Solo Shot bonus for a total of 100 points. As a result, the standings look like this: 1. mozam76 402 2. lolls 316 3.

101 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 That compilation of Bowles features genuinely some of the worse goalkeeping I have ever seen. Kids playing in full size goals are better than some of those men. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
