Apologies if this has been posted before. Well worth a read, and about as in depth coverage wise as you'll likely to see of our finances in a digestible way.
What do you think? 10 points on current form would be about right, well an improvement actually, but few teams nearer the bottom in there.
QPR 1 v Leeds 1 – 1 point Birmingham v QPR – 1 Brighton v QPR – 0 QPR v Yeovil – 3 Sheff Wed v QPR – 1 Middlesbrough v QPR – 0 QPR v Wigan – 1 QPR v Blackpool – 3
Where is the best place to lock a bike up around the ground, outside the OB station perhaps? Anyone any decent knowledge? Got a Kryptonite Evolution Mini 7 with cable so it's a decent enough lock.
Can someone bring up the FSF's campaign for safe standing? Can the club join Villa, Peterborough, Palace, Watford and others by backing the campaign and hopefully eventually give us, the paying customers a choice of standing or sitting?
Seems a few here are a bit miffed we didn't spend more. It's obvious we are gambling massively to stay in this league this season but if we don't, are you not concerned of the future of the club?
Is it a case of heads in sand (I'm half like this myself)?
Samba is a great signing but 12.5m! For us it's a huge amount. What happens if we go down, do these players leave? Relegation clauses?
I'm not saying we shouldn't be looking to strengthen and I do think its the case that we would have went down without investment but if this gamble doesn't work out I think our previous experiences with hard times might seem a walk in the park.
Any thoughts? Can anyone convince me we'll be fine.
That jumped on anyone that said anything negative?
A few posts of concern where batted away with a straight bat and a condescending remark or two? Everyone (well almost everyone) seems to have sh1t the bed last night.
Personally I think we are going to be ok, we have too much quality to go down (I'm aware this has been said before)
Hughes has to sort out the back 4, I know injuries play a part, but we were screaming at Nedum (or the back 4 in general) to pick up Jarvis on the left as in F Block we had a perfect view of the space he had for their 1st goal. but he stayed glued to the middle and low and behold, unmarked.
How that second cross came across too, players are not doing enough to stop danger at source, right through the team this is happening. We look so soft, teams seem to run thought us at will.
Another tough game on saturday, but a break after that... lock the defence in Harlington, tape them all to each other with gaffa tape, make them feed each other, or blind fold them and make them catch each other... do something with them!
I've been working from home a fair bit recently, and for some reason I was searching for a photograph of the back of F block, in the search, I came across a Youtube video of Adel in our championship winning season (see below)
Anyway... after watching it I went a bit giddy, and for a while I was thinking he might really make a difference this year, last year was pretty tricky for him in many ways, none of which I have the inclination nor need to go over again, but this season he could really arrive on this stage. Watching him and Faurlin together in some of the clips was a joy, and with Ally back, and the additions of Diakete and Park we have a really strong nucleus in midfield, whether it's a 4 or a 5.
Cisse too, if he can keep from going napalm he could get bags of goals, Zamora could have a better year, and with Johnson and Helgusson on the bench primarily, we have real depth up front.
The back 4 is a slight worry, I'd like to see someone new in there, but Green should be solid keeper.
So, few more bits and bobs to do, but I am beginning to like the look of our side.
Bothroyd even took his goal well the other night... MEDIC...
Hi folks, Brian Doherty (an absolute gentleman), whom I am sure some of you will know, had a sudden stroke recently, and is doing very well in recovery.
He's asked the club if they would save his seat in the Loft, the one he's had for 20 years, for a season, while he moves to a seat with easier access and continues his recovery. IE sell it this season, but for a season only. They have said they can't do this as we know they have new rules in place.
A group of his friends are looking to club together to buy it this season so its safe. Any money we can recuperate back through the season will be donated to the Stroke Society or a charity of Brian's choice.
Please help out if you can, we constantly say we are a family club, and it's things like that that prove it.

Clive, hope this is ok, sticky it if you don't mind.
