Striker George Goddard 's 37 goals won the golden boot in the league and also set a QPR and league record. During the campaign, the FA ordered the closure of Loftus Road for two weeks as a result of crowd trouble and had to play outside a six-mile radius. So on the 1st March, the League Division 3 match against Coventry City was played at Highbury[ 1]
