I've been going to Loftus Road for 35 odd years and there's only been two times I can remember when there were significant numbers of away fans in the home end;
1) Chelsea, 1986 Milk Cup 1/4 final [1-1 draw and we done them 2-0 in the replay :)] - 'kin loads of the cnts in the Loft.
2) Portsmouth, league game in the 90's when they were in Ellerslie Road and got into the upper loft. It was the game that created 'R Block' as we know it today (combined with lower loft now being the family stand).
That's about it. The West Ham FA cup game doesn't really count as that was due to forgeries of away tickets forcing Police to move West Ham fans into the west Paddocks and moving out QPR fans from there into east Paddock and lower loft.

Birmingham fans in the home end on 12:36 - Apr 27 with 1367 views
I like the story of why Birmingham sing Keep Right On To The End of the Road. From what I gather the fans picked it up from one of their Jock players during a mid-50s season when they reached the Cup Final without a single home tie. Alas they lost the final to Mancester City and Bert 'broken-neck' Trautmann. Regards to the Brummies. I usually have a good time when I'm up there. Looks like we'll be meeting again next season too.
