Cabinet Minister in the Lower Loft on Saturday !!
at 19:45 25 Nov 2013

My son and I were sitting next to Michael Gove on Saturday afternoon.
Fair play to the guy, I'm sure he could have sat somewhere in the posh seats, but he was behind the goal with his son and a few of his sons friends.
So whether one likes his politics or not (and I definitely don't, especially as my wife is a teacher who works 60 hours a week +), he was just a normal bloke, who was enjoying watching the R's with his son, wearing an old dog eared QPR scarf!
He jumped up and went as mad as the rest of us when Charlie Austin scored, we had a great view - he obviously wasn't a newcomer to football, he was very in tune with the game, clapping great tackles (Richard Dunne) and joined in a bit with the tiny bit of occasional chanting and clapped AJ when he came out for a warm up.
He almost made me think he was a good guy, until I saw him on Sunday morning on the Andrew Marr show, changed out of his jeans and back into the politicians suit (on a Sunday morning - what's that all about!)
Still - fair enough, on a Saturday afternoon he was an R's supporter, just like the rest of us!!

Season Ticket Printer info - where are you now?
at 08:38 22 May 2011

A few years back when the ST's went up by silly money - wasn't there a printer lurking on here who came out and announced the new prices?

I seem to remember everyone thinking it was nonsense as the rises were so high - then it transpired he worked for the printers who printed the ST renewal letters and info that was sent out to us and he was absolutely right - have I imagined this?

If I haven't - where is the printer now?!!

don't bet with Coral :-( they wont pay out on QPR
at 21:01 3 May 2011

I'm really fed up
last August I put a bet on with Coral for the R's to win the championship - £50 at 12-1 - I've never bet on us before like this, I don't know what came over me!!
All season I've been thinking the pay out - £650 would hopefully pay for most of mine and my sons season tickets in the premier league next year - however ... this is what Coral have to say in reply to my email asking for the bet to be honoured ...

Thank you for your message.

Please be advised that our Trading Team have informed us that they will be delaying the settlement of these bets until the result of the hearing has been announced on Friday re: a possible points deduction for QPR.

If we can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us at Coral Customer Services.

Kindest regards

So according to Duncan, the hearing is all about a points deduction - which shows how much Coral know !!

I've asked Duncan for the Coral MD's name and contact details so I can ask him for my money!!

Still, it was a fantastic day on Saturday and they can never take that away from us!!

at 18:21 8 Apr 2011

hello folks - every day LFW viewer here, my old ID disappeared so haven't posted for ages.
I am aiming to be 1st in the London Marathon next week in my category.
Category = Fat man, aged 51, born on the 4th of July, running in a QPR shirt !!
If I don't come 1st in this category, it means I will have pegged it somewhere along the route :-(

If you happen to be at the Marathon - please give me a big shout up - I will need it - this is my first marathon and I reckon it will be hard work!! (understatement or what?!)

I know there are other folks on here doing the marathon, so good luck to everyone !!

cheers Phil

ps: favourite cheese - very blue, with a glass of wine or 2 & a nice chunk of Christmas cake !!
