I second the solar panels
Got my first EV in 2015 (as mentioned above) and also got solar at the same time.
I do about 8000 miles per year and I reckon 70% or more of that is free miles as I charge the car regularly from the surplus solar. |

I've been 100% full EV sionce 2015 and I've never regretted the decision.
Currently have a Kona 64 which has a real world range of 325miles plus in the summmer and 275 in the winter.
Charging costs 7.5p per kw so about £5 for 300+miles of driving. never once had any 'range anxiety' .
So many untruths about EVs being quoted as gospel in mainstream media and certain youtubers (ie MacMaster)
Last month I travelled from Devon to Norwich 356 miles (6.5 hours of driving) which only necessitated one charging stop whilst we had breakfast at Rugby services
If you are able to charge at home then an EV with decent range is a no brainer. I even saw last week the new Model Y on offer for a 3year , 10,000 miles per year, Personal Lease direct from Tesla at just £399 per month. |

I know the season has been full of its or buts. The many missed "should have scored" goals and last minute goals conceded etc, but I fear the Begovich flap up against Plymouth last week will be the two points that cost us our Championship status.. We had 3 points in the bag rather than the 1 we ended up with. A win then I think we would have survived even if we do not get another point in the next 3 games (which I can't see us getting).
Sliding doors.. |

Willock spent
Chair selfish and predictable
Armstrong poor and not Championship standard
Dykes useless and also not Championship standard
I would have taken Willock off at half time and played Smyth.
Dykes is not part of the solution so he’s part of the problem
That said fine margins. Their first goal was a fluke. That doesn’t happen or Andersen scores it’s a different game. But we could have played another 6 hours and we wouldn’t have scored
We need somehow to survive this season and then have a clear out in the summer allowing a rebuild. Get rid of Dykes, Willock, Armstrong. Sell Chair. Start the rebuild from there |

I believe he has been the lynchpin of our improved performances in 2024. The best of our January 'transfers in' .
Its crucial he stays fit and plays the last 6 games
And as for next season he would be an absolute amazing signing |

I maintain that our recent decline started the minute we sold Sir Les to Newcastle in 1995 'Decline Number 1'.
It took us until 2011 to recover - 16 years
Then the wasteful spending on useless has beens by Warnock started the next decline. Exacerbated greatly by Mark Hughes - who in my opinion is the real architect of our current situation. 'arries reign just made what Hughes created even worse.
So the relegation of 2015 was 'Decline number 2'
I believed the damage caused by Hughes in particular would take at least 10 years to recover from.
So perhaps in the 25/26 season we start to see a 'competative' Championship QPR side |

This team is absolutely not Championship quality.
Nor does most of this team have any fight or desire - unless they feel like it and most of them didn’t feel like it today!
Only Smyth and Armstrong “tried”.
This was a game that meant so much to the club. Win and we are out of the relegation slots. Surely any team worth their salt would have fought tooth and nail? Not our lot!. To me until the last 2 mins of stoppage time there was only ever one team of players that “wanted “ to win today.
I’d give Armstrong a 3 and Smyth likewise. The rest were 2 at best. [Post edited 28 Jan 15:55]

Only one team has wanted to win today and it’s not been QPR.
Utter drivel
Not a single player above a 2 today
We are sinking fast |

I’ve just posted elsewhere. After more than 55 years of supporting the club, I am now almost at the point of not caring anymore.
TF and subsequently Ruben, together with the club management/team managers they have appointed have been slowly killing this club.
Relegation followed by a new owner and a massive clear out at all levels are our only hope of survival . I genuinely fear the club will be a mediocre league 2 team in 25/26 unless these changes are made. |

Until there is a complete clear out of most everyone at QPR we will continue to decline and to be honest I we could easily end up in League 2 within 18 months.
We need a new owner. Ruben is not hands on and is too nice. He has accepted and continues to accept mediocrity and failure from management, trainers and players. The culture of the club stems down from the top . The ongoing acceptance of repeated failure and unacceptable performances is killing the club.
We need a root and branch clear out of the various management teams / trainers / players . Lots of heads need to roll. But I cannot see Ruben doing that.
Ideally we need to keep Marti to start a rebuild and that’s about it.
Maybe the club needs relegation to be the catalyst for the massive changes needed because they ain’t gonna happen with the current Regime and in the Championship.
After over 55 years of supporting QPR, I am now almost at the point of not caring. My team is almost lost to me. This club is slowly disintegrating. |

Call in sick. Give Bournemouth a Bye to the next round.
If that doesn’t work play Richards, Armstrong, Kelman, Uncle, Dozy Dozell, Fox, Archer and 4 kids. Substitutes, don’t have any. |
