My motm, shading it from Kolli due to his personal circumstances. I thought I saw him gesture to the Heavens when he scored and reckon that was for his dad. |

I remember him being a big fan of Thin Lizzy - I bought him a CD of their greatest hits. Trouble was, he had already bought it - so I've got that CD now! 😀 |

Chris was HantsHoop. I made friends with him when he wrote on these pages that he was physically unable to get to Loftus Road anymore as his wife couldn't take him. I offered to take him, and this became a regular thing as I became his carer and we sat in the front row of the Loft. I was initially pleased as my seat was free, but unfortunately he had little money, so I had to pay my share.😄 Sitting in the front row could be dangerous, especially when the team were warming up and on one occasion I had to protect Chris' head from Taraabt thunderbolts! Given that he suffered from brain tumours and leukemia, this was quite an important action although we laughed when the crowd chanted, "sign him up!" to me! It's not disrespectful to say that he wasn't a natural friend for me but we developed a friendship based on our love of QPR and sometimes wicked humour. Once, after a great home game, my car broke down near the ground and we didn't get home till the wee hours of the morning, somehow it wasn't as bad as could have been and we kept our cool and sense of humour throughout. Eventually, he was no longer able to travel the long journey from Locks Heath and I returned to SAR. However, we enjoyed a few great seasons together with promotion, survival and relegation. I visited him several times in his flat, even took him fishing before he moved away to Hindhead, then ending his days in Scunthorpe. Sandy his wife kept me in touch over the final period of his life, which ended today after he lost his battle with leukemia. I wish he could have seen tonight's game, I felt very sad that he didn't.

Baadiff commentary is actually quite good, but they struggled to accept that it was a great goal, talking about it being a sliced deflection at one point.  [Post edited 27 Nov 20:46]
