Queens Park Rangers maintain a long-standing rivalry with several other clubs in the area such as Chelsea, Fulham, Brentford and Watford. Queens Park Rangers Football Club was originally formed in 1882 by the old boys of Droop Street Board School. The club was known in the early days as St. Jude’s. They obtained the name of Queens Park Rangers when they merged with a team called Christ Church Rangers in 1886. They called themselves Queens Park Rangers because most of the players came from the district of Queen’s Park.
