Take in Sagrada, the port, the beach and Las Ramblas. There's other Gaudi buildings worth looking for.
Montjuic where the swimming took place in 1992 has spectacular views but the pool itself looked in poor condition. Is it worth it? Debatable.
Parc Guell is superb but it's a fair walk to decent transport.
Watch for the pickpockets. Many years ago, my son was walking home at 6am, the worse for drink, when he got collared. The thief got lifted by the neck against a wall. |

After the traumas if this season, you probably feel that age already.  |

Alleged interest from both Plymouth and Rotherham.
After a successful loan at Torquay in Nat Lge South, I'm a little surprised at the level he could reach. |

Ridiculously OTT about the coaching. A really good set up Might provide 1 player per year. Assuming they haven't been nicked by the other dozen or so clubs around us.
AFAIK, we'll keep Hawkins, Murphy, Aoraha, Talla, Bala, Salamon. Leahy and Tuck have moved up from U18s. Lloyd had his contract renewed. Shann is injured |

Jude-Boyd and Woodman had already been announced. I cant think there are (m)any surprises in that list.
There's little point in keeping 21+ year olds if there's almost zero chance of reaching Championship level. |

The last time we gambled like that was with Austin and Johansen. Within 15 months we were in trouble, as they faded.
Besides, there are key players ( Willock, Armstrong, 3 keepers) out of contract, so we prob can't keep them. |

Sounds like they'd already made their mind up in January.
A bit different to the tribute to Drewe. |

They are getting the departures done in good time.
Kakay, Adomah, Jude-Boyd, Drewe and Dozzell.
Who's next?
My money is on Archer. |

The best answer is none of the above.
Maybe the odd 1 or 2 might have done more if we'd kept them. But, generally, they find their right level. And it isn't the Championship. |

If you exclude those who came from elsewhere to join the Dev Squad , the definition of our own is more limited. But its a perfectly valid model that QPR have been pursuing for years.
The counter to that is the number of players from the Academy that have been poached by other clubs. 13, I recall, netting us a mere £700k.
We'd all like to see a kid join at Junior school level and go on to make 100+ appearances in the First Team but that really is a rarity. Especially in London, with so many other clubs on the doorstep.
Maybe Heston will help us to attract and retain better players who can do that. Let's hope. [Post edited 10 May 7:53]

Very harsh re Academy. Any academy producing 1 player per year, on average, would be a success.
Kakay - 100+ apps
Eze
Chair?
Lumley
Kolli
Armstrong |

I think Hunter was a touch over ambitious.
We would t be getting g shot of Dykes nor Cannon. Unless there is a huge transfer bonus from JCS or Eze.
If I am correct that reduces the scale of the incoming.i suspect there may be some left field arrivals from Europe. |

I read each Championship team will appear 24 times. That leaves 22. I'm struggling, as an overseas supporter, to justify a subscription to QPR+ |

Neither of us are homophones but Olly Alexander's show was cringeworthy. More like gay pyrography than a singing competition.
It was one of the most embarrassing spectacles I've seen for Years and Years. |
