QPR 1976-7 UEFA Cup Wants

[nedzelic16]

Good Afternoon,

I'm looking for three away programmes from QPR's 1976-7 UEFA Cup campaign:

Slovan Bratislava v QPR (20/10/76)

FC Koln v QPR (8/12/76)

AEK Athens v QPR (16/3/77)

I've been looking for a while and am not actually certain whether programmes for these games exist so would welcome that advice as well!

Many thanks

I am almost 100% certain the last two do not exist. I have the SB one (see attached).

That said, I have noted that at a not so long ago auction there was a Koln v Spurs UEFA Cup programme for '74 (to my memory). So, that is why I am not fully but almost 100% certain. The AEK is a no. The QPR historian thinks that neither exist.

Thank you very much for such a helpful reply - great to have the mystery solved. And thanks for sharing the SB cover, I"ll continue to keep an eye out for it.

I have been collecting Rs programmes since 1973. For the 1976/7 UEFA Cup season, there were programmes issued for both Brann Bergen and Slovan Bratislava away but definitely not for Cologne and AEK Athens.

For the only other UEFA Cup campaign in 1984/5, there were two very slightly different covers for Rejkavik (one with a yellow border one or orange) and a very rare programme for Partizan Belgrade. I didn't see any copies of the Belgrade programme on sale on match day, only the day before.

The first programme fair to be held at QPR since May 1986 will be taking place on Sunday 21 April from 10.30am to 2pm in the Forever Rs bar.
