4. it’s the early 60s and we’re off to Kent to face these non-leaguers. The men of Kent hit the woodwork twice in a tense 1st half ending 0-0 but by the end the Rs triumph 3-0 (7,4)
6. A non-league team from Somerset we beat despite their famous old sloping pitch (6,4)
7. The opponents of a doubly-strange FA Cup 3rd Round tie. Strange cos QPR won it and strange cos it was 4 days before Xmas rather than the usual January - it would be 14 years including a visit to a car factory before the Rs would win away in the FA Cup again (7,6)
11. These plucky Dorset part-timers were no match for the mighty Rs in this 1946 first round replay (5,4)
14. Our first post WWII away win in the FA Cup against a league side came here in the Midlands in 1958 (7)
15. A crazy season in the early 70s as the Rs win 2 (TWO!) FA Cup games away from home. The only other time we did that was ‘82 on route to Wembley. The team in question here we’ve also played at Wembley - allegedly! (6,6)
16. A journey south of the river in 1956 saw us conquer this Isthmian League London side 2-0 with Nigerian international Tesi Balogun opening the scoring (7,3,7,6)

1. The last team we beat away in the competition in 2013. We also beat them on a neutral ground in a very famous game for the Rs (4,7,6)
2. The name of the ground that saw QPR’s only post-war FA Cup win on neutral territory (8)
3. Early 70s and a London derby again. But this time it’s a non league team in an evening replay. By all accounts a hairy, lairy evening was had by the few thousand Rs that turned up (6)
5. “Friday night and the gates are low” HMHB once sang about this team. The Rs hadn’t won away in the FA Cup for 8 years but managed to beat this lot with Nigel Quashie finding the net (8,6)
8. A town synonymous with QPR FA Cup 3rd Round exits but this year we surprisingly beat them which set up a home tie in the next round and the greatest goal ever scored (12,4)
9. The only team post-war we’ve beaten twice at their ground in the competition. Not confirmed if this is one of the reasons the club left the ground in 2008 (10,6)
10. Another non-league replay triumph for the Rs. The year was 1953 The place - I was once told by a local that so much shagging used to go on in the cavernous barn of a bus station that it was where the UK’s first public outdoor condom machine was installed. I’ve fact checked this and apparently it was the first outdoor condom machine in the WORLD! ((8,7)
12. The early 70s and 30,000+ people turn up to see us win our our only FA Cup away game against a London league team post war (8,8)
13. QPRs first and only FA Cup away win after extra time. Young Warren Neill heading home the winner (13)
