I suddenly remembered this James Hayter hat-trick, achieved as a sub, in under three minutes :

The earliest hat-trick (in the EFL) since Opta Stats started in 2004/5, apparently.

Just a thought, is the strong wind in our favour this half?

Back in our comfort zone now, it's currently 40%...

Perhaps we need a member of the coaching staff to stand by the touchline holding an LED possession monitor. "Lads, lads, give the opposition the ball, we've gone over 50%".

Indeed.

Re. rotating players, surely playing a game then missing a game makes it hard to maintain match fitness and hit form?

Not the heaviest riff, but surely one of he loveliest? It brings to mind Blob, God rest his soul 😞.

Why QPR can't escape Loftus Road

The fact checking organisation Full Fact has been researching the accuracy of answers given by AI chatbots. Their initial findings are here:

https://fullfact.org/ai-benchm

Here's an introduction to their study and some key takeaways:

"We’ve spent the last few months asking five leading AI chatbots the same questions every day. It’s just the start of our project to benchmark the output of these AI models, to help ensure they operate in the public interest.

We’ve found some really interesting and concerning trends. The chatbots often give good answers; but when they don’t, they still answer with complete confidence. So how do we know what to believe?

Just a few examples: proposed rules not yet in force, such as using bank cards as voter ID during elections, were reported as law; outdated figures on levels of asylum support were presented as current; and plausible but incorrect statistics on the number of migrants arriving in the UK were constructed from accurate data.

In the next phase of the project we’re going to be asking questions in a variety of ways, and hinting at political preferences, to see what impact that might have on the answers AI provides.

Over time, we want to build a shared evidence base on how leading AI chatbots behave in practice, as they evolve. This extraordinary technology should work for everyone, in the public interest, and independent assessment from a charity like Full Fact is one way to help make that happen".

I was already skeptical about AI, due to its inaccuracy - I asked it one question, a tricky football one, and the answer turned out to be totally wrong, the vast amounts of power and water data centres are using (an AI powered web search uses 5x the electricity of a standard one) and all the jobs it will take. That's before we even get onto the subject of humans losing control.

Clearly, it has a big role to play but it needs to be used carefully and appropriately, with human oversight.

The Top 10 QPR players who didn't play for QPR

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the almost legendary Adsm Czerkas has cropped up on here yet. He managed as many as three appearances for us.

"But for me the number of players looking for physical conditioning or rehab support outside of the club has to be a big red flag".

That is exactly what I was thinking. I'm not sure how much proof we have but if that is happening, it's an indictment of the club.

Embarrassing Tourist Things
at 09:36 21 Oct 2026

When I was very young, 10 or 11, I think, my family went on a trip to see Canterbury, the place where my dad was born, and his relatives there.

We went to the cathedral and I was most impressed. I found the story of Thomas A Beckett fascinating.

I was so captivated by that enormous edifice that I snapped off a small piece of the crumbling masonry to take home with me. Shameful

Modibo Maiga. We had him on loan from Wham and he even scored on his Rangers debut.

Apparently, he played for us as many as eight times. I really didn't think he made more than a couple.

"Neil Critchley must be on Blackpool leisure beach".

That comment left me wondering where he is now.

It turns out that he's a first team coach at Ipswich Town . They've started the season pretty well, they're in 10th, currently.

Such sad news. I've loved Ted's trenchant posts and cheeky jibes at the false hoops, plus, as a fellow guitar player, I feel a connection with him even though we've never met.

He and his family continue to be in my thoughts and prayers 🙏.

Thanks for the update, Mart, you and your wife are in my thoughts and prayers.

One of my best mates, the person who first got me interested in QPR in fact, and with whom I have been to umpteen games, including Cheltenham away , is also battling back from a stroke. I'm rooting for you.
