Completely random question, but I've often been puzzled how Queens Park (not Rangers; and I mean not QPR not not Glasgow Rangers, but Queens Park, oh you know what I mean) then and now an amateur club, could afford to build and play at Hampden Park? It always seems funny seeing under a thousand in such a big stadium (no MK jokes). When it was first built it held over 100,000 and it meant Glasgow had the three biggest football grounds in the world at the time. I know Queens Park were successful early on, but how did they build such a huge ground as an amateur club? I know they've got a lot of financial help in more recent decades to maintain Hampden, but from what I've read they just seemed to have funded the original building of it themselves. I'm guessing it had something to do with a wealthy benefactor but does anyone know how?
Out of the literally hundreds that I'm sure there's been, is that the longest ever Queens Park question on TCR?
Oh not this again. How many times do we have to answer the same question?
