"If he’d been a steady solid Championship keeper throughout the season then those games would not have become “key”" Very well put. |

Unreal, when you put it that way. I've always considered them an underachieving club, but that post really drives it home. |

Aston is correct, fb. Post-Brexit, players from the South are not allowed to sign for English, Welsh or Scottish clubs until they are 18. |

Arrow-up for this one, without a doubt. Incredibly sad that a club legend has left us but arrow-up for his massive contribution to our club, without a doubt. Great to see so many informed tributes already, from ex-players and great fans who witnessed his work first-hand. A quick google showed up this great LFW post about Frank Sibley from Nadera: "Nearly 40 years at the club, our youngest ever player, coach, manager, League Cup winner, 5 promotions, his family are all QPR - Frank Sibley is genuinely one of our legendary figures. I'd like to think that, if the new training ground ever gets built, the club would name the various facilities (pitches, changing rooms, classrooms, media suite, etc, etc) after former personnel - Evelyn Lintott, Wally Draper, Alec Stock, Frank Sibley, Daphne Biggs...the list goes on. Make it appropriate to the person, so the Daphne Biggs classrooms, the Wally Draper Gym, that sort of thing. It would really enhance the club's history and bring it to the attention of every future generation of QPR player. This is us, this is where we come from, who came before us - that should be important to a club like ours." Beautifully worded, Nadera. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam uasal. RIP. I have posted this phrase as-Gaeilge down the years many, many times. I'm not religious, but I love the tradition and the history of it. The phrase changes subtly, and I wouldn't expect anyone to notice, but it changes nonetheless. In general it means "To the right (favoured) hand of God be his/her faithful/beautiful/noble/etc soul". This time I've used the word 'uasal'. As Gaeilge we spare the usage of the word uasal. You hold that one back. It means noble. There's no higher. Thanks Mr.Sibley. |

Damn. You were on my list. Actually, you were my list. |

Well, she rose through the ranks in eight years, ended up with the National FA, and now she's on the way to a top division club, so she's clearly talented. Whenever I've read her or watched her I always found her inspiring, empathetic and eloquent; the kind of coach I'd want to be coached by. I wish her well. As for Rangers, I view this the same as I view a player leaving. Do we have the knowledge to recruit someone better? |

Let's be fair now, if any of those went in he'd have been disappointed. |
