David Seaman signed in 1986 and was the Rangers number one for the rest of the decade.

Seaman signed from Birmingham for £225,000 and came with a good reputation after winning 10 England under 21 caps. Seaman looked a quality keeper from day one and was quickly compared to Phil Parkes as one of the greatest every QPR goalkeepers.

Much the same as he is now, Seaman was sometimes dodgy from free kicks and crosses but his shot stopping was superb and he always organised his defence with the authority you'd expect from a future England keeper.

His first season at Rangers was very much a transitional season as Jim Smith made many changes to the squad who reached the Milk Cup Final a year before.

Off the field problems including a proposed merger with Fulham and Jim Gregory leaving as Chairman left Seaman's first season as one to forget. His second season though was much better and he began to enjoy some good times at the club.

Rangers led the First division table as Seaman sat behind one of the strongest defences in the country. When the defence was beaten Seaman was always on hand to save the day as he began to fulfil the potential he had shown glimpses of in his first season.

Rangers finished the 1987/88 season in 5th place as top London club and Seaman began to build a reputation in the game of being one of the best young goalkeepers around.

He was beginning to get mentioned as a possible successor to Peter Shilton in the England team and he earned four caps for his country during the run up to the 1990 World Cup.

Seaman was an outstanding keeper and produced some unbelievable saves to win us game after game as we continued to do well in Englands top division.

On many occasions Rangers would know that one goal would be enough as Seaman was almost unbeatable at times and when on top form you just knew that Rangers would keep a clean sheet.

Seaman was always a popular player with the fans as he always acknowledged the fans chanting his name and used to enjoy a laugh with fans in the Lower Loft when the ball was up the other end.

During his last season at the club Seamen made one of the best saves I have ever see in a 3-2 win over Liverpool. A header was coming towards him and Ian Rush diverted the ball to the other corner from just six yards out and amazingly Seaman managed to react and tip it over the bar despite being wrong footed. Its an superb save and words don't really do it justice.

Seaman's last season at the club saw him produce some superb performances, one of which came against he team he joined a few months later. Against Arsenal in the FA Cup Seaman produced a string of good saves to earn Rangers a replay which we won 2-0.

He was also on top form for most of that season helping Rangers to a good finish in the league and a Quarter final appearance in the FA Cup. His performances against Arsenal in the league and cup must have had a bit influence on George Graham breaking the transfer record for a goalkeeper when he signed him from Rangers in 1990.

Seaman remained a popular player with the Rangers fans until he mentioned he'd rather play for Arsenal and from then until now he has always received stick when he has faced Rangers even eleven years after his departure when he returned in the FA Cup in 2001. Arsenal won 6-0 that day but even then Seaman got a lot of stick from the Rangers fans.

To his credit he always took it as a joke and usually just laughed off anything thrown at him. It's a shame he left the way he did with fans taking an instant dislike to him for wanting to leave.

It's seems like madness now but back then loyalty still existed in football and when a player made it publicly clear he wanted to leave then he was instantly hated by the same fans who had adored him just days before.

Since leaving Rangers he has become the England number one keeper and won three league championship, three FA Cups, one league cup and a cup winners cup, plus he has played in two World Cups and two European Championships for England which slightly justifies his decision to leave the Rangers in 1990.

Seaman will go down in Rangers history as one of the finest goalkeepers to ever wear a QPR shirt.
