Thanks Clive
You have an uncanny knack of venting all those frustrations on my behalf and your putting into words means I don't have to.
Being an (over) 50 year QPR fan I feel I've earned the right to do exactly that but given the time, effort, passion and expense you've endured over the years, no one has earned the right more than you.
Also glad to know it's not just me that worries about our owners pulling the plug and wonders why they do it...

Cifuentes placed on garden leave as reign that promised so much unravels
at 04:10:57

Experience of this club has taught us that if the other parent was courting other partners, that parent probably had a bloody good reason.
I tried to explain to an Australian colleague recently how, as much as I am prepared to sit up til 3am to watch my club cough up dross, if they ceased to be, football, bar the odd international, would be over for me which I'm sure is true of most fans - sometimes I just wish it were otherwise.
As sonofnorfolt said, I dunno how you do it but I'm glad you do Clive. All anyone wants is to be understood - you get me......

Brilliant Saffa - captured the drama & passion completely.

Heckingbottom should have been sent off either then or retrospectively for clearly telling his keeper to go down. The cameras picked it up so there are no excuses. It is a scourge on the game & they have the chance to make a statement here.

When Chekhov saw the long winter... - Perryripheral Thoughts

There's the rub Alex, I, like most of us didn't get the choice.
Dragged along to what had been a third division south club to see the latter stages of Rodney lighting up Loftus Road and then the new dawn of Stanley. Follow that up with the golden era and by then I just thought it would be like this forever.
Great article and you're right, one can never let go completely but apathy is less painful.

Interesting that Birmingham, Blackburn & Plymouth have the same record over the last 5 games as us - won 2 - lost 2 & drawn 1. So do Leeds!

Here’s one you might have heard before – Report

Apart from the brilliant & often hilarious writing, I think the reason I've followed Lost For Words for neigh on 10 years now, is the fact that you seem to see things exactly the way I do. On my recent trip home, my Liverpool born, Australian wife & I attended the Preston, Hull, Southampton & Cardiff games (as it was a delayed honeymoon I concluded taking her to Millwall may have pushed her devotion a little too far & opted instead for the Colosseum)
The ball on the wing, constantly being recycled backwards & across was mind numbing & we were both desperately urging someone to take the game by the scruff.
Usually a fan but I thought both Smyth efforts were appalling last night, they were not half chances but were treated as such because why.....too early? Even at the level I played I knew in that position. low & hard, low & hard and that was before goalies were all seven foot!
As you say, after a few better performances I was actually guilty of fancying us, but to play that team, in their current form for 98 minutes and not be able to get 1 goal, I fear the worst.

Marvelous Clive
I'm on the other side of the world but I feel I know Shirley - even pictured her.
I didn't pick QPR, my mum & dad being from Shepherds Bush and Notting Hill respectively meant I had no choice. I still don't & wouldn't have it any other way. I try to explain to the locals, who tend to follow whatever state they find themselves in, no matter how bad they get, if QPR cease to exist, so does football in any meaningful capacity.
I am there in December - see you in the Crown & Sceptre.

Clive, you really are a credit to this club (or us fans anyway)
You’re knowledge of ffp and it’s fatuous inconsistencies are really eye opening.

Good job I work in here alone - many laugh out loud gems in this one.

Agree with everything you said (except the bit about Chair scoring Armstrongs chance) but performances like those of Smyth & Armstrong make sitting up til 2am (soon to be 3am) on a Saturday night/Sunday morning much less confusing - I didn't for once rouse my snoring wife from the couch this week (she does try) asking why I put myself through it.
We'll be there from December 2 through to New Year. Will pop into The Crown & Sceptre & say hello on match days.

Screams, the like of which, not heard since a certain Bobby Zamora slotted home with his left could be heard at 2am, emanating from a certain Gold Coast apartment.
happily, thus far, no eviction notice has arrived - perhaps my neighbours thought I was merely being murdered.
