Extended highlights of the 1-1 draw played at Loftus Road on 22nd January 1986 in front of a 27,000 capacity crowd. The dramatic replay followed a week later........
Fair comment paul, I was at this game in the ellerslie road stand supporting QPR, 27000, 18000 were Chelsea and on all four sides of the ground, good old days of packed grounds, scarfs round the wrists and all! days of proper football and proper fans.
@@raymartin574Qpr v Liverpool the Semi Final 15.000. Was 15.000 Chelsea look how packed ground is then look at the Liverpool semi final. Was loads of Chelsea side stands seats and enclosure where i was loads and in the Loft Terrace on the wings and a packed away end. Yet away end well over half empty the replay at Chelsea. Was 12.000 Qpr. 15.000 Chelsea. Was only 10.000 Qpr the semi final v Liverpool.
Chelsea's season started to collapse in this game. McLaughlin got injured and although Speedie was in an offside position when Dixon scored, he was clearly not interfering with play and the goal should have stood. A few days later Dixon was injured against Liverpool in the FA Cup defeat and then 3 days later they were beaten by QPR in the League Cup replay. To add to all that Niedzwiecki was injured against QPR in a league game two months later and never fully recovered. After being well placed in the League all season and second at the New Year they fell away and finished 6th. The fallout from all this lasted for 3 years until they were promoted again in 1989 after relegation in 88.
Quality ground cracking away end ! Rangers C mob underrated crew and Chelseas lads in those days up there with the best! I was at it all through the 80s with Everton’s mob and had some tasty encounters with both mobs especially Chelsea.. Boss days loved it
o everton ......... everton probably the best northern away mob who come down south come to QPR , were not mugs , Everton got what they come for ........Respect Everton , they didnt respect Rangers , they got there fingers burnt .......... ( and everton know it was Rangers , not Chelsea x )

If only those QPR fans who say 'where were you when you were shit' or 'west London is ours' without any sense of irony watched this so they realise chelsea have and always will be the main club in West London. Qpr and Fulham have never been on our radar just another club where we'd outnumber the home fans before all seaters, same as palace, Charlton, Watford, Luton etc.
Chelsea weren't the main club when Rangeres finished second to the future European Championsi in 1976 .You will Rangers finished above Chelsea quitet regulary in th early 1970s.Obviously things have changed when Chelsea won the lottery wern Russians took over.Not as cleasr cut as you'd think on today's standard, assuming thsts's where the sweeping starement came from You Rs
@@JamesofQPR I'm not saying qpr have never had a better side than chelsea, they've had some good and exciting sides over the years but chelsea are the only major club in W/SW London, hence why there's no real rivalry with QPR, Fulham or Brentford
@@paulw6183 Welcome back Paul - its been along time!further down league until nHistoryBrentford could be Chelsea's main rivals in West London they get promoted that would be incredible In direct reply to you main point,I suppose a team that has win the Chamoion Legue/First Division title that have to be considered a major club in any area really.All the best Paul
I'm in the front row at 29:15 (in front of a guy in white) cheering which I believe to this day was a legit goal. My best mate,a QPR fan, is to the right as we look and pointed out the lines men's flag! Loads of us Chelsea in the Loft that night (as ever) and a 27000 crowd. I'm not mentioning the replay!!
Good to see Doug Rougvie playing for Chelsea. Don’t know why but loads of Alex Ferguson’s Aberdeen side that beat Real Madrid to win the ECWC never went elsewhere and were really successful. I suppose Gordon Strachan was.

There were prob 12,000 Chelsea in the ground.. but it is just up the road.. West Ham had similar numbers there in 1988..
Where was 15.000 Qpr. The gate was 15.000 v Liverpool Semi Final so alot less than 15.000 Qpr v Liverpool and Chelsea. Was 15.000 Chelsea 12.000 Qpr this game. Was Chelsea on all 4 sides. Lusten to the Comm he says more Chelsea than Rangers he was right. How comes only 15.000 v Liverpool the Semi Final.
I remember QPR,Luton Town both had plastic pitch. For the young uns today that means not grass! Artificial! the ball used to bounce higher and roll further.
Awful decision...Speedie interfering with play.....a joke, I bought four tickets for the South Africa road stand...they didn't even bother to ask if I was a qphaha fan....
Not QPR or Chelsea fan but their kits were classics. Especially the Guinness 1

great Rangers team. We turned Chelsea over at the Bridge in the replay. Pride of West London
then you fucked it in the final!!! losing to that yellow shit
And then absolutely murdered them 6-0 in the league a couple of months later.
I was there and the replay, which I preferred 😀
proper atmosphere!
Was in the Rangers end that night which was full of Chelsea as usual. Proper support unlike nowadays.

@@chelseachelseaboy Quite right. Although Speedie was in an offside position when Dixon scored, he was clearly not interfering with play.
Jim Smith top manager RIP. Derby ram
Cracking nights football. Feet never touched the ground in the away end. Don't make 'em like that anymore.
‘Chelsea as many as qpr fans’comment by motson? Avin a laugh! it was always ‘spot the qpr’ fan joke there. Embarrassing fan base!
That pitch was awful
