The appointment of Gallen, 41, has given encouragement to fans wanting to see more homegrown talent emerge into the first team.
Happy for Steve Gallen. Hopefully he’ll recommend Ehmer, Petrasso & co for first team places!

Makes perfect sense to promote Steve Gallen from the youth academy to first team coach as there will certainly be a few players well known to Steve that he coached that would be hoping to make their breakthrough in the first team this coming season.
Maybe this website could carry on the change by substituting the Richard Dunne picture at the top of the page to someone who’s actually a current QPR player…
