The moment I knew my son was absolutely hooked. His first away game aged 10 v Reading. 3-1 down with a few mins left. Pull one back, then equalise in injury time. Away end going nuts, turned towards him and he was in floods of tears and gave me the tightest hug I've ever known. Poor sod doesn't know how many years of misery he has ahead of him.

my old mum used to rib me rotten about when Rodney went to Citeh... I cried my eyes out and hid behind the curtain at home. She reminded me about it right up to her death 5 years ago...
My youngest son cried when we lost to cardiff in the play offs....
Got to admit I shed a tear of joy when we won the play off final - was also pretty emotional after the man city game where we lost but stayed up... that was a roller coaster of a game - celebrating with the citeh fans outside the ground for two completely different reasons....

Twice

1) After BZ scored his winner

2) In 2011 when we faced Chelsea at home in the league. Had waited for years like that day and it was magical - To win as well was a bonus

Twice I can remember.
After the cup final replay in 82. 7 year old me went to bed inconsolable . Went to the first game but wasn’t allowed to go to the replay on the Thursday night as it was too late .

And after the play off win . Sat in a hotel room in Vegas …early morning there …unable to find the game on anywhere in the city so sat and followed people’s Twitter feeds . Obviously knew O’Neil had been sent off and we were under the cosh .It was hell .
Then got a text from a work colleague just saying “Goal”.

Presumed it was for Derby and threw my phone across the room.
It carried on pinging with messages so after about 5 mins I went and got it and of course we’d won. Out of sheer relief and joy I wept like a child 🤣🤣.

I remember crying when we lost the League Cup semi v Aston Villa in 1976/77. My mum let me stay up and watch the highlights on the b/w portable telly in her room, and I just bawled. She had limited sympathy, since I was 19. (Not really - I was 9.)

I'm pretty sure my friend Justin and I were weeping when he rolled down the terrace into my arms in the FA Cup Final in '82 after Fenwick's equaliser.

I also cried with relief when we won at Hillsboro to ascend to the mighty heights of the Champ.

It's crazy, ain't it? How does football do this to us?

Yes all of this, I was In my older brothers car when the sports news came on after the main news and they said that Rodney had been sold to Man City, In them days car radios were pretty shit so I refused to believe It up to the point where my older Brother said If I didnt shut the fck up he'd stop the car and beat me up.

I was honestly distraught, beyond consoling I just couldn't believe It, I didnt think those things happened.

Celebrating with the City fans was mental, If results hadn't gone the way they did then we were gonna have to fight our way out of Manchester.

I never got to meet my Lad up there that day, he got home sometime the next day.

My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

After the Coventry defeat in 1996.I was so pissed when I finally got back to Euston that my Mrs had to come and get me from the gutter.”We’ve been relegated “I said.Shut up and get in the car as you’re embarrassing I was told.
I think that was the last time I drank Stella for the whole day too.What a coincidence that it was the last time I shed a tear over QPR.

Loss at Carrow Road in 76. I wasn't there, too young for aways then as my mum & dad weren't Rs, but I remember my dad took me to some other London game. Walking back to the car, I heard the result on someone's transistor (the days when you all tried to walk next to the bloke with the little radio) and was in complete bits.

Relegation from the Prem first time round at Forest. I'd moved to Nottingham a year earlier which didn't help. All those gallows humour chants (Grimsby on a Tuesday night etc) we sang through the game suddenly felt very real at full time. We then all refused to leave til Wilkins came out - felt like it took about half an hour, but was probably a lot less. We knew he'd fckd up but loved him anyway. The prevailing mood was we'd come straight back up - alas my gut feeling that we could be gone for a long time proved more accurate.

I remember feeling very low after the defeat at Norwich and Liverpool's win at Wolves.

For reasons unknown I did shed a few tears near the end of the 98/99 season when we looked like being relegated to the third tier of English football, I was on the train listening to a radio commentary and us losing once again.

Two seasons later when we did get relegated I just thought you silly barstewards.

Yes the Forest one is a great shout. Can’t remember if I shed a tear or not but I remember it being very emotional that day . Went up on the train on my own as it was a gut feeling that we wouldn’t be back in the premier league for a while .
I’d forgotten that we stayed until Ray came out long after the game . Also , before that , have I misremembered or did the Forest fans invade the pitch at full time and a large number come right up to us and start applauding us?

The ‘no points deduction announcement’ is certainly another emotional moment .
Was milling around on South Africa with thousands of others when the guy who used to do the Football League show on BBC 1 announced it outside the main entrance . I was about 100 yards away from him but the news and the cheers and roars of joy swept up SA road like a wave . Grown men in tears everywhere, everyone hugging each other and probably the first time my 12 year old son really saw what this club meant to people .
I still get the lump in my throat watching the The Four Year Plan when it gets to that part .

I was milling around with you that day, a very strange atmosphere around HQ.

We went in to the ground afterwards, took our seats, and the crowd started singing ''There's Only One Ally Faurlin.'' I turned around to my mate and said thank goodness there is only one of him!

I expect to have a few tears in my eyes at the Leeds game, next month.

I'm coming back to clear out and sell the childhood home. The home I set off from to go to my first QPR game in 1974 and from wherever I was on the planet, the one I returned to when visiting the folks.

Now they've departed, I won't be returning to it anymore and a huge chapter in my life will close. And with it, the realisation that the next time I go to see the Rangers, I'll be a tourist in my homeland.

Ya, Mart, think the Forest fans applauded us, at least in the end.

It was their last home game so they all steamed on the pitch in traditional fashion.

At first, some of theirs were throwing shapes and the usual gestures our way, but in the end most if not all applauded us.
