Without wishing to anticipate Clive's previews (which I hope will include wise words from the resident cottager Konk), what are people's thoughts on Saturday?
I've seen Fulham a few times this season and have been very impressed. I backed them at 7/1 to make the playoffs after we turned them over.
Their midfield looks the best in the division to me.
It will be a real test for young Manning. However it goes for him, he'll certainly learn plenty and be a better player for the experience.
Do we sit back and try and nick one on the break, ala Reading, or will playing at home force us to chase the game?
Now that Konk has moved to the West Country, the question has to be asked as to whether he will be returning to lead The Rupert march to Shepherds Bush?
Or has he passed this responsibility over to a more right wing leader? If so, we need an updated photo of their preparations for Saturday!

Terry, I'm not off to Bristol until July/August, but I won't be about to lead any march I'm afraid, as I'm off for a bit of winter sunshine/sub-zero temperatures in Greece, tomorrow. As a Cat A+ super-hoolie, I'm usually followed about by the Met, BTP, MI5, the SAS and Native American trackers on derby days, so to give them a swerve, rather than drinking round Hammersmith or the Bush, I'm going to be plotting up in an Irish pub 1,700 miles away in Thessaloniki. It's the last place they'll be expecting it to go off. I'll be sat there with my wife, two year old son and friends of ours to watch the game/draw some horses/watch My Pet and me on the ipad, so this is me officially calling it on. If my son and I can sit there, watching the game, openly wearing red trousers and cheering on the Whites without it coming on top, then we're claiming it as a result. Fulham FC - taking the absolute pi ss.
"Well, guys, It's 7pm local time and still no sign of Rangers - I'd call that a result! This is soooo going in my hoolie memoir!"
PS. I am also missing a King Creosote gig that I had tickets for to go away this weekend - the sacrifices I make for my wife.

And some tw*t running the length of the pitch before tripping over the ball. Even Konk laughed I believe.
Urmmm, I have to out him on this one. There was no laughing at the time - other than from me whilst putting my head down in to my cravat and having an intimate chuckle to myself whilst staring down and admiring my hired spats from Moss Bros, King St, W6, a pair of red trousers and navy wollen sports jacket (I was going deep, deep, undercover in to the home end) whilst the Konkster bellowed forth some expletives with such ferocity that the sound waves traveled back up along the waters of the Thames as far as Hammersmith Bridge forcing Konk Jr to look up out of his buggy, shake his head woefully and whisper to Mrs K, "Daddy not happy Mummy?"
The less said about the penalty miss at the end the better, other than for me to wonder at the fact that the vibrations of the ball hitting the post so hard could be felt up in the back row as yet more wailing and nashing of teeth ensued.
Cant see lightening striking twice this season though. Best is that we hold out for a 0-0 or 1-1 draw.

Mate, even the lads you’ve known since school completely forgot you weren’t Fulham - possibly the finest undercover work since Gary Johnston’s “Derka derka” effort in Team America:
PS. You’ll be pleased to know that the horsey obsession shows no sign of abating: we’re now up to 2 (Two!) Hobby horses, a horse puppet, a horse pillow, fu ck knows how many Schleich horses, various horse magazines, a horse jigsaw, a stable set and a horse sweatshirt…if he’s not camped out in Ladbrokes by the age of ten, I’ll eat my top hat.

and relax........
Mrs PP is going - 4 visits, 4 wins is her record this season!
To counter that though, my brother in law has just left my house and gone back to University - Moved in before Wolves, just before our three match winning streak, and moved out just after the Reading game.
Has never seen us lose when taken to a match either...
Can we not knock it?

I'd love a win of course but would take a draw here and now. 4 points off them season is some way to claw back the appalling results we've had over the last few years.

It's the hope that kills you, and we have hope after winning 3 on the bounce so we know what's coming our way.
However, if we put in a good performance I'll be happy enough, I suspect we'll draw. I think using Hall in his sweeper role will allow the 2 CM's to press Cairney & Parker/McDonald and limit their impact on the game. Wszolek and Mackie/LuaLua to keep their full-backs in check and we could get all 3 points. So we'll probably lose to a last minute penalty.
Really hope we make a game of it and not get stuffed again as per usual LR games v Foolham. They look very good but we played very well v reading so hope we keep form and at least get a draw

The loft is home to some of Rangers most authentically working class fans and a hotbed of Trade union activism and class struggle. Karl Marx famously said of QPR, "Class consciousness is key if the proletariat are to overthrow the capitalist class, and in all my travels, never have I met a group of people as class conscious as the supporters of the Queen's Park Rangers. I expect the revolution will begin in Shepherd's Bush. Or Russia. But probably the Bush".
(Below) Rangers fans enter the Loft:
These Rangers fans have come straight from work at the Ruislip Colliery to watch the match — thousands of authentically working class workers will join them from mines throughout the Middlesex coalfield as well as the shipyards of Berkshire, the Steelworks of Buckinghamshire and the slums of Holland Park, Notting Hill and Ladbroke Grove.
(Below) Half-time and fans queue patiently for the toilets in the Ellerslie Road stand:

This won't be easy, but we are on a run, we have nothing to fear, in fact for a change they won't be relishing coming to the bush. We owe them another beating, and I feel we will do that, 3-0, yes 3-0 to the super hoops.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
