I've only ever known it in it's current guise so seeing pictures like the above will be just as sad as the actual leaving and never seeing it/being there again. | | | |
Griffin Park on 13:10 - May 20 with 4016 views | philc | I can remember the South Africa Road stand going up, the old wooden stand on Ellerslie Road, where I sat to watch my first ever match, and the later developments. So I’ve seen the changes over the years which possibly limits the physical attachment. What I would miss would be the atmosphere, especially under the lights and some of the great memories over the last 55 years. | | | |
Griffin Park on 14:03 - May 20 with 3782 views | ted_hendrix | For the life of me I couldn't imagine watching QPR in a new stadium and I'm not to sure I would even go. No point waxing lyrical it's all been said before a thousand times, the thought of our stadium being demolished doesn't bear thinking about. All that history gone forever--the noise--the floodlights seen from a distance as you walk to the ground for an evening game--the smell of the bloody place, never to walk down Loftus Road again. Nah. | |

Griffin Park on 18:42 - May 20 with 3329 views | colinallcars | I seem to remember that we had to sell Ron Springett to get the money for a new roof on the Ellerslie Rd stand. At least that's what the adult supporters told me as a young lad. What I do remember as a youngster watching from the SA Road, was seeing supporters seated in the Ellerslie Road side brushing rust off the clothes whenever a heftily cleared ball bounced on the roof. | | | |
