Brentford match 28/10 18:16 - Sep 6 with 16626 views | brydesantis | Hi there, I am an American football fan and making the trip over the pond in a little over a month. I must confess I am a Spurs supporter, however I have always had a soft spot for QPR and as luck would have it there is a home match on Friday the 28th at Loftus Road that i will be able to attend. Anyways, I have registered on the official ticket site but obviously will have to hope tickets for the Brentford match go on general sale. Is there a chance of that? I am aware Brentford is a local rival, so was wondering if that would be an issue with tickets. If it does sell out can you get tickets on stubhub? I know Tottenham has that option (albeit you pay through the nose) Also, If any of you could be so kind as to suggest a pub that would be a good place to get a few pints before the match and a bit of an atmosphere? Thanks in advance and wish you lot all the best this season, hope you get back up to the Premier League. Cheers, bryan | | | | |

Brentford match 28/10 on 09:16 - Oct 8 by enfieldargh | I chose the Cleveland Browns as my NFL team probably because they never did anything which kinda drew me like a magnet to a team similar to Qpr in expectations terms Go woof woof or whatever they say in the pound Notice I used the kinda word, I was expecting a p,attic toy inside |
That's pretty cool. This is by far the least amount of expectations the Browns have ever had (and that's saying something) on the bright side I think they finally have a good coach, he's just going to need a lot of time to sort this shite out | | | |

Brentford match 28/10 on 15:34 - Oct 7 by runningman75 | I am from North West London but occasionally venture to the more expensive parts of London. Saw you said you were staying in Kensington. Visit the Churchill Arms Pub , Kensington Church Street, Fullers Pub so you can get London pride and real beer there. Also you can walk up to Notting Hill and see the lovely though more gentrified Portobello Road market. |
My favourite Kensington pub is this place..good pub food too. http://www.scarsdaletavern.co.uk/ | |

Brentford match 28/10 on 10:40 - Oct 8 by thame_hoops | $9 + Tip for a cold bud light in the aluminium bottle at M &T bank stadium but they bring the beers to you in your seat, I thought it was just baseball that did that. I love your crappy weak beers especially the light ones but I've noticed in bars now you're all massively into craft beers. The Ravens fan podcast I listen too, the guys are always going on about pumpkin beers?, wtf |
I had a handful of $9 coors lights yesterday at the Indians game haha. As for the craft beers they are getting more and more popular. I do like trying out new brews but admit it's getting out of hand with all the different flavors. This brewery southern tier makes a beer called PumpKING Ale. It's pretty damn good actually but I can only do one of them as its sweet and almost 11% alcohol. If I'm honest I'm more of a whiskey fan than beer though I general | | | |

Browns are utterly hapless two more quarterbacks hurt today. We may set a record for quarterbacks used in one season, he'll we may have already | | | |

Brentford match 28/10 on 16:06 - Nov 9 with 1740 views | brydesantis | Just wanted to say I had an amazing time at this match. R's were pretty poor to be honest, so I was disappointed in the result. In a local derby they didn't seem up for it as much as Brentford. The view from my seat was incredible and the leg room was just about enough.. Also had a good time getting some pre match beers in at the Queens Pub (I believe that was the name) U R's are a friendly bunch I hope to get back more often! PS: The Superstore needs some work! There wasn't a great big selection of items in there although I did manage to still spend 100 pounds | | | |

I did had dinner there was very good. Thanks for the suggestion. The only bust I would say was I went to the Crown & Sceptre before the match and it was a cluster. The barmaids couldn't even tell me where the ground was, and then all of the beer taps went out (or were flat) We found our way to the Queens Pub right by the ground though which was a good atmosphere. | | | |

Better late than never with the 'just back' report Bry! I'm glad you enjoyed it despite the result... Wasn't sure you'd make it what with the World Series coming to Cleveland. At least you can tell people you were there when Brentford won at Loftus Road. Good luck with your country'n'all anyway! | |
