ntupdate =Jake S Cole (born
September 11 1985 ) is an English professional footballer currently on loan to Oxford United from QPR.Cole has been the number 2 keeper at QPR for a long time, being understudy to
Chris Day ,Paul Jones , Simon Royce andLee Camp , but has been praised byJohn Gregory as being a model professional. On the few occasions Cole has been called in due to injury or suspension, he has performed well, making few mistakes and some good saves. Towards the end of the 2006–07 season he became first choice keeper after Lee Camp was recalled from his loan spell to Derby County.Cole has been given the number 12 jersey for the 2007–08 season, indicating that Iain Dowie will be signing a number one keeper before the start of the season, with rumours focusing on a permanent signing of Lee Camp. Camp was then signed for a fee of £300,000 therefore limiting Cole's first team opportunities; however Cole continued to impress for Ranger's second string with manager John Gregory saying in 2007, ""I have been impressed by Jake's overall attitude and ability. He is a fantastic understudy to Lee Camp."cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/q/qpr/6949833.stm |title=QPR keeper bags new one-year deal |date=
