I thought he was hopeless - he was in front of me in the second half on the left - Dunne had him covered and he had the first touch of a baby elephant! I think they swapped him over as he was going nowhere fast on the left. Oh and he looks like Paul Calf! [Post edited 22 Apr 11:02]

Reply | Who is your Non-League side?
at 16:24 20 Mar 2024
The mighty Hampton & Richmond Borough - flying this year under new management after a shaky start and now in 4th in National League South.
They have an ex-QPR player currently Issac Pitlabo who is doing well.
They also have had a number of ex-QPR players either loaned to or played early in their Non-League Career. Leroy Griffiths was signed from them. Seny Dieng was on loan for a year and had a stellar season 2 years before he hit the first team at LR and Jamal Lowe was "discovered" by Portsmouth playing for Hampton.
Up the Beavers! [Post edited 20 Mar 16:49]

My first footballing hero and great memories of his playing days.
The best Stan story came from Dave Webb who said that Stan turned up for training a bit disheveled but trained hard (ish). Back in the dressing room after Stan asks if he could borrow 50p for the bus back to Brentford where he was living. Dave gives him 50p. They all go outside to the car park and there waiting is Dave Webb's wife and young daughter. Stan goes up and says hi - gives the daughter something and wanders off. Dave gets in the car and says to his daughter, what did Stan give you - she replied..... 50p.
My personal story was in the mid 90's I got invited to a sponsors/players forum at LR. Due to traffic I was about 10 minutes late. But as I arrive who is also late and meant to be on the panel.... Stan. In we go to bar and he lets me order first and of course how could I not buy the great man a drink. "What do you fancy Stan" - "oh thanks mate i'll have a Kronenbourg......... and a large Smirnoff.....but not in the same glass"". Now, I would with anyone else turn round and say don't take the pi55, but it was Stan and I just laughed and clinked glasses!
Finally - my cat is called Stanley, and its perfect for him - wanders around the place, can be a bit lazy, breaks all the rules off the house, sleeps a lot of the day but spends most evenings out and about. But puts a smile on everyone's face in the house when he enters the room.
Rest In Peace Stan - god bless |

the alleged attack took place in France but the prosecution is in Belgium! Mmmm is this a private prosecution? All seems a bit far fetched to me. |

I think that as he is now a free agent he didn't have to sign within the window. Makes sense that he probably has or will sign a pre-contract agreement with us subject to medical, contract terms, international clearance etc etc. This takes time and as Hayden and Hodge probably took all our time yesterday Andersen will be announced in the coming days. |

Reply | Electric cars again
at 16:04 30 Dec 2023
Had an electric car for over 2 years - quiet, clean, quick . We have a Pod Point 7KW charger on the side of the house. Charges over night. When we go longer distance I have started using newer Shell Garages as they have 35KW chargers and going from 20% to 80% (over 80% to 100% charge is slower) is about 30 min. Its cheaper to charge from home (avarage half price of public charging). It costs me still about £15 for 200 miles at home. However, with all that said - without a charger at home I would not go electric. |

at 13:31 27 Dec 2023
Under Venables we did the massed ranks outside of the box and all rush into the box in different directions and in the ensuing chaos invariably scored.
Now we just put Jimmy Dunne and or Sam Field on the keeper wait for the ref to have a word then as soon as the ball is delivered the ref blows for a foul! Inept and frustrating in equal measure! |

A few deft touches - just in front of our bench - then when the ball didn't get to him hands in the air and face like a slapped ar5e! No tracking, when ball was lost didn't run and a couple of thru balls he was asleep. Not good - |

I think he has 6 weeks to prove himself - otherwise I would send him to Scotland or L2 on loan at least re-coup some of his wages and see if thats the jolt of playing for St Mirren or Colchester gives him the wake up call. |

Found his level in the Gibraltar League . Was there in Feb and walking down the high street with a QPR jacket and a local shouts out "you Rs" - turns out there is a Gibralterian enclave in West London so there are quite a few that have returned home but not before succumbing to the heartache of supporting our club!! |
