Reply | What is your second sport.

Playing
Have been involved with wheelchair tennis for over 40 years and still try to play twice a week. I also played wheelchair basketball until my late-thirties but gave up to concentrate on the tennis which is a more inclusive sport as I can play with able-bodied friends.
Started dinghy sailing after I retired and enjoy racing against other sailors with disabilities once a week on a nearby reservoir.
Watching
I've been going to Loftus Rd since I was seven and I've had a season ticket since 1980.
Also enjoy watching tennis, rugby union, athletics and gaelic football (pleased with Donegal's revival this season). Loved boxing in the 70's and 80's but only watch the odd big fight now. |

One which always made me smile was the graffiti added to the British Airways Concorde advert;
'Breakfast in London, Lunch in New York. Luggage in Brazil' |

Reply | The season that was - Preview
at 15:05 7 May 2024
Finally got round to reading your Coventry preview today after a hectic few days and it was well worth the wait. Fantastic analysis of the State of our Club over the past few seasons and some sage advice that our owners should heed.
The paragraph comparing QPR to an errant child was inspired and made me LOL.
Thanks for all your hard work throughout the year and have a great summer. I’m so pleased that you and all the dedicated fans who go to all home and away games were rewarded at the end of the season with some very good team performances. Hopefully this helped compensate for all the bad ones you’ve seen over recent seasons.
See you back in the C&S in August. |

Very sad news.
Tom looked after us in the East Paddock wheelchair user section for the last 10 years plus and always greeted you with a friendly smile and usually a team sheet. He was a great servant to the Club over many years and will be sadly missed.
Condolences to his family and friends. RIP Tom. |

Very enjoyable reading, thanks Clive.
Great to have a decent Championship referee. Suspect he will not be around this level for long - promoted to Prem. |

Agree that he's been a great addition and makes a huge positive difference when he plays.
I really do wish though that he stops blaming other players when it is sometimes his mistake. He even appeared to have a go at Begovic when he played him into trouble with an awful back pass and Asmir did well to kick it into touch. Also played two or three aimless long balls in the first half and only saw him put his hand up in apology once. |

Thread | VAR. No thanks.

A great point made by one of the posters on another message board:
"Imagine, just imagine, if in the midst of the mad celebration of Dunne's wonder goal the big screen had flashed up “VAR Check” and how that would have punctured the mood. Even if confirmed 2 minutes later, that ultimate high wouldn’t have been the same. No to VAR" |

Superb.
The quality of Jimmy Dunne's winner only matched by the quality of your three paragraph description of it! Thank you.
One of those 'I was there' moments that will stay in the memory forever. |

Lovely tribute to your Dad, Sevenhoop. He certainly was a loyal supporter and it's fantastic that so many of your extended family are now R's fans.
Those moments with your son when Jimmy scored will provide an unforgettable memory and I'm sure most of us in your position would have burst into tears too.
RIP your Dad, Tommy.
Totally agree with you also that Jimmy is a person and player we should all be proud to have at the Club. |

Agree that it was not one of his better performances last night. However I thought that was largely down to the very good marking job Furlong did on him. Seemed to follow Ilias even when he dropped deep and is very hard to beat in one-on-one situations. He's a strong, fast and intelligent defender and probably one of the toughest opponents Ilias will face in the Championship.
I'd love to still have him in our team and that goal-line clearance, as mentioned elsewhere, was outstanding. He even managed it without using his hand! [Post edited 7 Mar 18:40]
