So many police on 23:11 - Nov 19 with 15208 views | ozranger | It was just as bad as with Millwall. No entry to Ellerslie Rd, bar from Loftus Rd prior to the match and police everywhere. There was some talk prior that the Met had heard that something may go on. So, I guess with nothing else to do on a Friday night, they chose to come out in numbers. Given I went via White City station, I don't know if anything happened on Uxbridge Rd after the game. I am wondering if it was closed off as it was for the Millwall game. | | | |
So many police on 23:29 - Nov 19 with 15042 views | paulhoop2 | Saw loads of Luton walking in with claret everywhere . Big kick off on the green also. | |

So many police on 23:36 - Nov 19 with 14952 views | hamptonhillhoop | Saw a bloke had been knocked unconscious on the Uxbridge Road by Loftus Road. Blood coming from his head. Had been put in the recovery position by a passer by. Don't know if he was Rangers or Luton. Was a bit unpleasant round there after the game as Rangers fans walking towards Acton were coming into contact with Luton fans turning left from Bloemfontein. police telling people to keep to the wall as they walked on the Hammersmith side of the road [Post edited 19 Nov 2021 23:37]

So many police on 23:39 - Nov 19 with 14909 views | 1MoreBrightonR | We tried to go down to Uxbridge road and there was some bottle throwing on the back streets and a young one bloody, but refusing help from QPR fans as he was a Luton fan, then we took another road to Uxbridge road which was also blocked off by the police.. Gave up and walked around to the new bar opposite white City. | | | |

So many police on 07:59 - Nov 20 with 14208 views | Dorse | This sort of thing is so fcuking nobby. Why can't these people just stop it? If they want a ruck, why not do MMA? It's basically the same thing, just without the bottles and at least they'd already be caged, saving the OB the bother. | |

So many police on 08:12 - Nov 20 with 14141 views | Logman | A lot of police on Uxbridge Road and hold-ups getting onto Uxbridge Road BUT there would have been trouble and more fighting if they hadn't been there. | | | |
So many police on 08:37 - Nov 20 with 14032 views | Juzzie | I think it’s more than just having a ruck. There’s the mob mentality and the sense of ‘we took their territory’ (or at least tried). Its all so primeval. | | | |
So many police on 11:40 - Nov 20 with 13500 views | Dorse | But they always give it back. Makes you wonder if a kind of 'Territory Library' scheme might be worth exploring? Just book the territory you want to 'take', then rock up in your best Stone Island / Burberry combo and stand around like you own the place, saying rude words, before packing up and heading home, safe in the knowledge that you are double hard and a top boy. Dorse Industries with yet another winning idea. | |

So many police on 12:30 - Nov 20 with 13244 views | themodfather | why are held in at Millwall for an hour sometimes? when it's a one way walk to station, fenced and nowhere home fans? so at qpr, police let all away fans straight out? so let them out, into a cordon and slowly escort up SAR , this lets home fans disperse and get ahead , by the time they get to white city, some may get central line and police can lead others to wood lane station for ham/city trains. health and safety works many ways . this goes on and on. fans may not be saints but police are poor with management of fans. | | | |
So many police on 12:56 - Nov 20 with 13093 views | Bruno4England | A lot of people claiming to be ITK suggesting unconfirmed reports that a Luton fan is in a coma after the Uxbridge Road fight are true. | | | |
So many police on 14:10 - Nov 20 with 12680 views | BuckR | Blimey Sounds like the away game could be even worse then off the back of that, I already hate that sh*thole enough! | | | |
So many police on 14:11 - Nov 20 with 12676 views | baz_qpr | Got the impression that this was preorganised hence why the police presence so heavy. QPR saying on twitter that due to health and safety regs they can't hold back the visiting fans anymore. But the old bill were so off the pace last night they should have been a much heavier presence around LR / Ellerslie. Against Millwall they managed to create a situation where they marched the away fans down Uxbridge Road right at the moment all QPR fans were coming out from LR and Ellerslie and of course it happened. Putting this on a Friday night was madness a perfect night of Gack, booze and fighting for those that get off on the things. Really the club and authorities need to agree that games such as Millwall, Luton, Cardiff that we know are always going to kick off are played Sunday lunchtime to cut all the nonsense out | | | |
So many police on 14:14 - Nov 20 with 12647 views | Bruno4England | It's likely that we won't get any tickets at Kenilworth Road this season and if the bloke doesn't pull through the fixtures for a few years will be Sunday afternoons with either away fans banned or complete bubble matches. | | | |
So many police on 14:15 - Nov 20 with 12637 views | Bruno4England | Wouldn't say pre planned as such. There is a long rivalry with Luton and every match has trouble. | | | |
So many police on 14:25 - Nov 20 with 12560 views | Hadders | Wow, that's horrible - obviously hope he pulls through. Violence at football is such a load of embarrassing nonsense. [Post edited 20 Nov 2021 15:00]
