Reply | Best and worst gigs you've attended
at 13:27 26 Jun 2024
To add to the list. I was fortunate that as a teenager my Dad took me to loads of Soul concerts in the mid-late 8-0s, see all of these before I was 18:-
Cameo, Atlantic Starr, Alex O Neal, Freddie Jackson, Keith Sweat, Melisa Morgan, Teena Marie, Jean Carne, Will Downing, Mica Paris, Fatback Band, Guy, Maze (others that I have probably forgot!!)
I actually went to the Jazz Cafe last weekend for Fatback, Bill Curtis still doing his thing at 92 years old! Was a superb night.
I also recently see SOS Band, Melisa Morgan and Glenn Jones at Indigo O2 last month. Melisa Morgan was excellent, SOS Band very polished.
Best Gig out of that - Cameo were amazing
Not got a worst as enjoyed all II have seen in some way!
Been to many others over the years (not just Soul) Louis Dunford in recent years has been excellent as well as Passanger. |

Reply | EDB Signs new contract
at 16:22 10 Jun 2024
EDB posted on Twitter/X "Long Term Deal". What is a long term? I get the sense its not 1 or 2 years based on that. I reckon it will be 3 with an option for 4 (pure guess ) |

It was always going to happen with an option. As mentioned, would be good to get tied down to a further year (or two) on top of that. It may be happening.
Who else do we have with a contract up (apart from Willock) that we done have any option on. |

You won't need a VPN/Visit an overseas country for the game as its not a 3pm Sat KO.
Pretty sure it will just be avbialble via QPR+ in the UK. |

Very sad. See Conrad many times in the early 90s. See him lots of the bigger events e.g. Dreamscape, United Dance but I went to a smaller event in Great Yarmouth back in Oct 1992. Him and Bukem, small club and was stood 6 feet away from them both and watching him do his thing was brilliant (so was Bukem to be fair on a very shoddy set up)
His intro on the Dreamscape 4 set that was then sampled was superb. It was actually "So get ready to Hardcore It, Jungle It, Come with it my man"
RIP Conrad |

Hogan posts on X a fair bit (or did) Always seems pretty swirched on.
He left us when he 26/27 years old and has then never really played consistently anywhere since. Seems a waste of a decent footballer.
I assume he made enough money in his 4 year contract with us to last him a lifetime! |

As I walked away from the ground on Saturday we were 100/1 and I thought that tells you everything. I then looked at the table and thought, unlikely but we could still get dragged back down.
Checked the odds on Sunday and noticed Betfred had us at 250/1 which I tought was madness. I stuck a tenner on really hoping it loses. They have now cut us back to 50/1 (when I last checked)
I know it seems mad betting on us to get relegated but its like my Home Insurance, Critical Illness policy,, Life Assurance etc.. I hope it never pays out. [Post edited 23 Apr 8:35]

I think the Cat A will be based on what we charged them coming here.
Watford write to all clubs at start of season and offer £20 (may be £25) for away tickets if the other club will do the same. We never play ball with any of this and always charge top whack, this means that we end up paying top whack when we go away (unless a club is super generous!)
Here is Coventry info for the return fixture and we charged them £37

Reply | New EFL/Sky deal
at 11:14 12 Apr 2024
iFollow only scrapped for UK based Picture (Commentary for UK and overseas Picture will stay with iFollow)
It means the club will lose any income they got from people in the UK buying the Midweek games (but will get more from this deal to offset that) I am not sure how many UK based fans would have paid the tenner each midweek game.
I think thats a shame as the Red Button service is very poor (almost not worth bothering with IMO) The tenner to watch a midweek away game via QPR+ was worthwhile over that.
This from Sky SIte confirms that
Domestic streaming audio services will remain alongside existing audio-visual arrangements for international audiences via iFollow and club streaming services. |

Spot on, this is not about people going for a swim on Matchday (although I read you can!!!) This is about those young and trendy folks, spending their hard earned cash at one of these rooftop bars that are all over the place.
As much as it pains me to say this, but it will be rammed in the summertime, there will be memberships before you know it and they will make a good few quid from it.
It will be like this place https://www.sohohouse.com/en-us/houses/shoreditch-house
Remember there are only say 25 games there a year, so no more than 50 hours of football. |

I can actually walk to a game if we do go down (and Stevenage dont go up!)
To be fair there is free parking all around and even the large showground opposite is free (only places are the Retail Park and Tesco that have a limit om matchdays)
Anyway dont worry, if we did drop down you can all park at mine, come in for pre-game drinks and we all take a nice 15 min stroll to the away end!
Call me mad but I still think we will stay up. Nothing but wild optimism to base that on though! [Post edited 1 Feb 17:19]
