Southall born left back Joseph Wingrove joined Uxbridge in 1911 and from there joined Southern League Queen’s Park Rangers, although he lost a considerable proportion of his career to the First World War, when he saw service in the Armed Forces. After the War he continued playing for Rangers and notably played in QPR’s first ever Football League match, against Watford in August 1920, playing 26 times in Rangers’ inaugural League season, most notably being part of their FA Cup giant killing team which beat First Division Arsenal 2-0 in the First Round. He left the professional game at the end of the 1920-21 season.
