Born just off Ladbroke Grove and grew up just off Portobello Road so my allegiances are very much there.

Spent a lot of my mid-teen yoof in Northolt as had a friend there (lived in Earlsmead, right behind Harrow Borough FC) and we'd all buzz around up there at weekends on our motorbikes.

Other than QPR, Shepherds Bush holds no ties to me.

Have been fighting to distance myself from Shepherds Bush and Hammersmith for last 55 years but keep getting dragged back.

Mum arrived over from Co. Kerry aged 5 and lived in Winthrop House until she met dad who came over from Co. Kilkenny aged 16 years and 3 weeks (his words). They rented a flat in Fulham for 12months but then bought a house in Wembley when I arrived in 1967.

We then got posh and moved all the way out to Eastcote (no longer posh) which I emotionally consider ‘home’.

However I got sent back to Shepherds Bush for secondary school, first and then many jobs in Hammersmith.

Now in the more down at heal southern end of Ruislip still trying to work out if I will ever be able to afford to move back to Eastcote. 😂

Poll: With no leg room, knees killing me, do I just go now or stay for the 2nd half o?

I associate QPR with, Shepherds Bush, Acton, Harlseden, Hammersmith, Kilburn, Kensal etc.

I know we draw a lot of our fan base from a lot further out, but I've always seen us as an inner city football club.

Grove


I was born in St. Quinton Avenue at the old Princess Louise Hospital before it got converted to a nursing home, for those of you old enough to remember that.

W10 born and bred and proud of it..(despite my move across town in later life..)

Now, of course, i can't actually afford to move back..

Would have to say Ladbroke Grove as was a relatively short bus ride on the 52 from Willesden.

Born in Ladbroke Grove and lived there until mid 80’s when I relocated to the US - Boston. Came back from the US a few years ago and now live in the Chilterns.
The gentrifying of Notting Hill and North Kensington has to be seen to be believed. As a kid K&C Council purposely let North Kensington become a slum - all political and they are still at it.

Very much North Ken for me. Born and lived St Marks Road then moved up to dalgarno gardens / North Pole Road. Primary school was off Latimer Road then secondary in Acton before settling in Northolt at 16 ! Dad was around the avenues after coming over from Ireland and mum was Notting dale quite a mix !

Poll: Now it’s slightly clearer cut who do you want as manager ?

Slough born and bred,which also has changed beyond recognition,but unlike the Bush,has absolutely far call going for it……..very sad

P.s. apart from S.T.F.C


I was a postie in Slough for a few months, man that is a place with problems. At least the Liz line calls at Ealing Broadway for Rangers!
