Going on from TGRRRRSSS comment on the 60 points thread, anyone know how the likes of 2T2B, LBlock (I think - the one with the Brass Eye avatar) and Smegma are? I know there were health concerns re 2T2B and Smegma. I hope they’re ok.
Can’t say I always agreed with the likes of 2T2B and LBlock, but I guess the message board is all about the wide range of opinions and supporting a team will always trigger a broad set of them. Except for a handful (like Konk and the Brentford 2 who I think are secretly Rangers anyway !!) at the end of the day we are all Rs.
I know a couple of posters on here from being at matches with them for many years, but it’d be interesting to put faces to avatars and username the next time we actually could all go to a game. As TGRRRSSS said, that’s life, but I look forward to going again when it’s safe. Being in Yorkshire, this site is a lifeline to connect with other Rs!!
Anyhow. Mind how you all go and COYRS!
Edit: I had originally put RBlock when I meant LBlock - hope both are fine tho!!

Only just seen this so sad. His passion for QPR was obvious and so sad to hear that he has passed away.
We've lost quite a few recently, David Price who used to be chairman for QPR 1st when we were in admin and facing a merger with Wimbledon passed away last month and Daniel Gregarious who was one of the most positive people I ever met and passed away last week.
RIP to all of them.

I don't post much these days but even though I remember his "Christmas" post it's still come as a shock to read this news. A great addition to this forum, always saying it how he saw it, sometimes ruffling a feather or two but never crossing the line, as far as I'm aware.

I had a good read of the link you were so kind to send and the family would like to ask you to thank everyone for the lovely comments made. It seems he was a bit of a character on there as he was in life, likeing to say something to get a reaction but always with a cheeky smile, tongue in cheek.
Despite being paralysed waist down and in a wheelchair, he never stopped trying to help his friends and neighbours and loved his dogs with all his heart, he was more worried about them than himself, they are ok but clearly missing their daddy as are we.
Thank you again for getting in touch,
Kind regards
Sarah and family.

Certainly sounds that 2T2B was one of life’s good guys.

Don’t know if this was the match where 2T2B got his name from based on Rangers third goal. Let’s hope so. RIP
Thanks for posting the vid DW what great memories, that's exactly what Jim would have liked as a send off on this thread....... Just watched it for the second time ...........

I didn't know him but reading Sarah's letter brought tears to my eyes.

I hope that this brings a little comfort to the family; seeing the involvement here and the fact that despite his health and mobility issues he was clearly still very active; albeit with people that may, by some, be seen as strangers.
Those of us on here realise that isn't the case and the bonds are stronger, in part due to the common burden of supporting QPR; but also just from the varied topics discussed and allegiances formed.
I have to say, this, amongst all of the other good stuff to do with QPR has left me feeling quite positive with the care & consideration shown and extended to the family.
Well done Clive & everyone else

RIP Jim This thread has been emotional to read. Thanks for following up Clive that was very kind of you. QPR fans are generally a good bunch and it is always sad when someone passes on. Posters on this forum (and thread) have shown how decent they are. We share a love of QPR, good football often reminiscing about the old days and fun.

There’s a life that was lived. We only saw a brief glimpse of his years and his life. And yet we all had an opinion and a definite sense of someone we never met or knew, truly.
His family knew him. Knew exactly how he is and how he lived life and loved it. In a way we just garnered and assembled from posts on a QPR messageboard.
God bless you Jim. God bless your family. You supported a worthwhile team. Queens Park Rangers.
