Hope Vic gets well soon.
Proper QPR institution. Always had time for a chat and a good laugh.
Been in the trenches with him a few times, tough as nails. Yeovil away in the FA Cup was a good one from memory.
Wishing him all the best |

Yep, the few we encountered in the Shepherd & Flock were decent folk and up for a chat. However, the collection of life's misfits in The Swan at Hammersmith on the other hand before the game were a different matter. |

I have certainly had a few cracking nights out in the East Ham WMC back in the day with all my wife's family who were all from Canning Town. Double Diamond in big 'Len Fairclough' pint pots. Been to a few others over the East End, most sadly are now gone.
The most bizarre club I used to go to was the Gothic Lodge over in Balham with my friends big Irish family and it had a bar were no women or kids were aloud - rolled out there at some ungodly hours in the morning. |

That is sad news.
Big part of QPR terrace history.
I know he is not everyone's cup of tea, but most other London clubs and beyond know who he is.
The number of times he has asked me for a quid.....
Hope he pulls through and is ok |

Your travel plans remind me of a trip to the old Baseball ground back in the Trevor Francis era. My mate was late getting to St Pancras and we missed the train to Derby so ended up getting a train to Nottingham and getting a cab to Derby.
As we got to the ground we were jumped by a few Derby looking for stragglers and after a bit of non-Queensbury rules street fighting managed to get to the turnstiles after kick off and as we got through Clever Trevor stuck the ball in the net. Heard the roar but did not see the goal. The rest of the game was pony. 1 - nil away win, but still a good day out. |

Agree. Build the fanbase, regularly sell out the ground, improve the match day catering and drinks offering , boost income and all that combined then pushes the argument for a move to a bigger and better equipped stadium - as long as the location and design of the stadium were very well considered with the fans input |

Add rail seating to the lower School End might be an idea if we stick with giving that section to home fans. Might generate a good atmosphere from both ends of the ground and support the noise from SAR & Stanley Bowles stand |

One of my daughter's is travelling out today for the weekend and the opening of the games. Already she has experienced delays due to vandalism to the rail lines outside Paris.

I do worry that there is going to be lots of protests and disruption due to the political turmoil in France at present during the Olympics. |

I liked the CJ Sansom - Shardlake series. If you like those then you might like to try a series of books by Rory Clements which are of similar style but based in the reign of Elizabeth 1 |

Reply | Next England Manager
at 14:12 16 Jul 2024
I think Southgate has put great foundations in place and brought us some of the best moments with the England team in my lifetime (54 years).
Spain promoted their manager through the ranks and I think that is the way we should go. So go with Carsley, get a great tactician in to support him.
I do not want to see Lumpard, Gerrard or Racist John anywhere near the England managers job |

I would Like us start with a team that are all playing in positions they are used to
-------------------- Kane----------
------Gordan -- Bellingham ----Palmer
----------------Rice ------Mainoo--------
Gomez ---- Konsa ---Stones ----Walker
If this ain't working then go 442 with Toney or Watkins to give Kane some support with either Rice / Mainoo making way. Replace Gordan and Palmer with Eze and Saka when they tire |
