Dunne rescues QPR from more Boxing Day blues – Report
at 12:18 28 Dec 2025

Fair points, especially re performance in the cups. That's been going on for more than 30 years so baffling to know what the issue is there as different owners and management in that time.

True, but his team was also bigger, stronger and nastier which many seem to forget

I find the narrative that the club has a standards problem just because we are inconsistent a bit silly. Yes, it's an open league but still very competitive. We have decent strikers but our other forward players and midfield are either small or not very combative. Against teams of giants who have no problem resorting to the dark arts we get regularly dominated. No great mystery surely.

Stainrod says they are supposed to be professionals but must forget that they are also playing against professionals. I think the our playing style means it's difficult to dominate in some games away from home. Key is to stay in the game which we did but it's not always going to be pretty.

It may be the large dose of night nurse I've taken but I've got a feeling Beale might do OK if he gets another chance. He's desperate and presumably v cheap.

Fearsomely in-form Boro too hot for QPR to handle – Report
at 13:58 15 Dec 2025

Norf rightly mentions we get opened up down the middle time and time again. Do those with better football knowledge than me understand why we are playing two in midfield and a high press away from home to the form team in the league?

I think the main thing missing is the team could be a bit more niggly and if necessary shithouse our way through periods in a game when we are not on it and getting overwhelmed. Might then have turned a few of the losses into draws.

Haven't looked the stats but seems like we've shipped 2 or more goals in the first half a number of times this season. Regardless of results in other games that's concerning

The BBC
at 19:20 12 Nov 2025

I don't think the BBC has changed that much. It was always Liberal rather than left leaning and middle class to its core. It's tried to dumb down and worked itself into knots trying to be impartial. I don't think the news or politics coverage matters matters anymore - most get info online and that tends to be at the extreme end of the spectrum. I do love the BBC though, the same way I love ageing relatives. I can't stand Netflix, the home page makes me feel ill, but I know I'm in the minority.

We paid a decent wedge for Saito and should doing everything to get him firing again, including bringing him on against tired legs. Hard to fathom.

Yeah I guess so, but ultimately some players just see it as a job and aren't that emotionally invested in the same way we are.

You would think professional pride comes into play. But if your bosses have made it clear they don't rate you but then want you to cover, can't blame him if he's not as his best.

Seems like you're enjoying wielding some power of your own dictating what others can and can't post, Obviously no room for nuanced debate.

Don't want to stress Clive by getting into individual allegations. But in VG"s case their family are jumping on the bandwagon but some of them were allegedly responsible for the abuse and sexualisation that led her down that path. Rank hypocrisy in my view

Not at all. But my point is they would have been sex workers whether or not employed by E and GM

Rich powerful men use young sex workers shocker. VG was allegedly a sex worker before being employed in that 'circle' so they are the symptom not the cause of VG's problems, Not saying they didn't take advantage but if they hadn't employed her she would still have been a sex worker probably on less money.

I was talking about the older locals, who still hanker for being in Surrey before the boundary changes in the 60s. I must admit it was easier to get into central london when I lived in Sevenoaks so I have some sympathy.

Didn't Norf have to move south and survived to the tell the tale 😊. Carshalton locals get funny about calling it south london - north surrey don't you know. No tube or trams (yet) so may be they're right, lol.

I live in the area. Pubs as others have mentioned. Not sure about pool tables - the Mrs who's a native didn't know what bar billards is! Purley way retail via the Beddington Asda shortcut is only 15 mins away has pool tables, bowling and tv - not sure about championship.

Carshalton has ecology centre by ponds and Honeywood museum - community events / cream teas if that's your thing.

Charles Cryer theatre in high street has a nice restuarant and plays, tribute acts, jazz & community events etc.

Oaks park with cafe and also public golf course and lots of garden centres 5 minutes up the road.

If you're up towards the circle / st helier it can get a bit lively but not too bad.

Wallington up the road has a farmers' market one a month with jazz bands playing etc

Sutton high street has new community hub / shared working space building and a independent / arthouse cinema that has comedy nights etc
