That's me with the closed fist next to GroveR and I think directly in front of yourself E17 - think the keeper was Dazzer who once gave me about 150 old QPR programmes when he was moving house.

Feel blessed to have had versions of this forum to get me through the trials of being Rangers - with a big thanks to Northern for all of his work. Really is nothing else like it out there!

I have a season ticket in there and it is very rarely full so not sure we are missing out on much really. Probably only been properly full once all season.

I'm gonna move back to Stan Bowles next season - while the cheap cost had been nice and there has been a good community built up in the main season ticket bit behind the goal I do miss knowing what is happening at both ends of the pitch!

He was the only player of any quality in our side! Lovely bloke too

I know I've had the same log-in and password since setting up on here as a fourteen year old and I'm now 38!

Me and my mate Rob (NeasdenHoop) used to bicker with each other endlessly on the site. Probably a lost history of our teenaged various dating mishaps somewhere in the archive if such a thing exists.

I remember the Beesotted game well and a member of strike force sitting down to have a er flavoured cigarette before the match had even started, half the team sprinting far quicker to the bar at half time then they ever had during the game itself and having rings run round by a semi-pro they had on their team who was an annoyingly nice guy to go along with it.

Top 10 Championship players 24/25
at 14:11 17 Feb 2025

Thought Kwadwo Baah looked a bit special for Watford but looking at his stats they don't really seem to stand out much.

Liam Cullen looked a cut above against us on boxing day - though we were so below the best that is perhaps not hard.

QPR v Fat Frank's Lady Godìva first eleven match thread
at 07:05 12 Feb 2025

The most annoying thing about our delivery is we're actually joint 3rd in the table for goals from set pieces - as we know we're a huge threat when the ball actually gets in there. Not sure how many of our 10 set piece goals are free kicks (where both Paal and Chair tend to have decent delivery weirdly) to corners.

I personally think Chair looks a lot improved playing in the 10 role and bringing both wings into play effectively - but might be a set up better suited to home games.

Bringing Lloyd on for Frey can be problematic at times as they want different things and we don't seem to adapt - Frey wants it into him or on the air so he can battle for it, while Lloyd wants it knocked behind to chase and hassle defenders into a mistake. They are not like for like replacements but we don't seem able to adjust our tactics to suit the relative strengths of the one coming on from my limited understanding of footy tactics

Can get annoying but not like the ground was particularly full yesterday - was surprised how empty it was actually. Need to go on a losing run to fill it up again evidently!

Cracking atmosphere I thought though - voice only just recovering,

saito challenge on travis first half....
at 19:39 5 Feb 2025

The Saito pen was right in front of us and looked soft at the time but on replays probably the right decision..

The highlights for Dunne seem to show it was actually just their player with two hands pulling Dunnes shirt so should be a pen for me as no attempt to play the ball whatsoever.

This has shades of my old Football Manager tactic of just constantly scouting the South American u20 sides and hoovering up all the talent a la Chelsea. Won me a lot of leagues of course so surely merely only a matter of time till this fella wins us the Champions League.

We are going to be the Cat 1 Prem academies to us for Perth Glory at this rate. That'll be two teenage prospects nicked if he comes in.

Would selfishly love to see some young talented defenders coming in - though supposed we did sign Rocca Friel and are after that Aberdeen CB.

at 06:56 26 Jan 2025

Could see it rolled over the line and then seemed to come back the other way. Lots going mental around me on School End Lower but looked definitive to me. Did think Fox could have cleared it if he'd reacted quicker.

I was actually watching Madsen with a lot of interest (albeit via the QPR+ coverage from my Tuesday home in Belgium) and he seemed to put himself about a bit. Not a lot going forward but he put a few challenges in and cleared a couple in our box - definitely looked like he was working a bit harder. Perhaps watching Morgan has shown him what he needs to do but he is miles off him as an athlete so never going to be able to replicate that.

Extra impressive given the state of some of those pitches.

Always intrigued when we sign a teenage striker, hope he develops well.

Morgan new contract

Continuing with picking up Prem academy cast offs and seems a Leon Scarlett has signed on as a scholar after being released by them - midfielder.

Has anyone watched much of the development squad this season? Some of the players that came in over the summer and had website pieces sounded rather promising - likes of Rocco Friel, Jack McDowell and Rohan Vaughan alongside Kieran Morgan. I've not watched a Dev game this season however.

Delighted with that news.

Comes across as a pretty grounded 18yo and futures looks bright. Fingers crossed he keeps developing at the rate he is as he'll be some player (and sale) soon enough.

Is it too early?
at 14:51 7 Jan 2025

For this season I would just us like us to get to a nice comfortable 60-63 points - somewhere around 10th - 13th tbh. Not hoping for too much more - but continue to develop the young players and gel the team. Hope against hope 2025/26 can see us be a consistently good team through the season with a smaller number of additions - none of this being great for twelve months but still finishing midtable as we were terrible for 3-4 months either side of it.

There will, however, be a f*****g riot if they let Jimmy Dunne leave on a free.

I mean I can't say I have watched a single minute of another Championship game live this season. Caught the odd League One and Two game but I rarely watch televised footy anymore. Almost 40 and still hitch a ride on my dads SkyGo.
