Thanks for all the marvellous previews and reports, Clive.
As Winston Churchill said - this is not beginning of the end or the end of the beginning, but maybe the bit in the middle.
Sorry, the ESB is having an effect ! |  | |  |

You have brought multiple highlights and have proven a great familiar comfort during the last 15 months when it was badly needed Clive so I thank you for that .Going through this crazy pandemic where nothing was normal you stand alone in providing the best entertainment and that feeling things would be back eventually with amazing writing .
Also Brian Mac for his ever present match thread typing and the usual suspects kicking every ball from their living rooms and venting or celebrating it was just brilliant .
Having the QPR team playing so well for the past few months helped too of course.
Brighter days ahead in 2021 hopefully |  | | |

Thanks Clive.
Amazing efforts from the team in the second half of the season - let's hope we can keep the team together for next season.
This website and your updates have been a highlight during a very difficult year when many things we took for granted were taken away from us.
Hope you have a relaxing break during the summer.
Cheers,
James | | | |

Thanks Clive - think that line about loving the club & now being able to love the team is a great summary at end of the season. Been bloody enjoyable ride since Jan. |  | | |

Thanks from me too, Clive. I'll get on the Patreon at some stage. Your work on this site deserves proper support. |  |

Brilliant report as always Clive. Thanks for all your fantastic efforts cheering us up when we were a bit crap and helping us ride the current wave that we will hopefully surf into the sunset. |  |

A lovely way to sign off the season, both on the pitch and in the LFW match reports. Can't wait for the Netflix show.
Thanks so much for all your efforts Clive in this season of all seasons, it's been a real source of joy for many of us. Enjoy your summer and let's hope we'll all be cheering on the the boys in blue and white, in person, come August. |  |

A superb last day report that has provided a fitting conclusion to as season's worth of quality reports that have had me moved, in tears of laughter at times and just amazed at the consistently high quality (and high output) that you provide.
In the strangest year of all our lives, your reports and previews have been one of the few bright spots. I would also add to that the streams and the London/ Sinton banter has also partially alleviated the hurt of not being in W12.
The team's form since January has also been a joy. Roll on August! | | | |

Thanks Clive for your Herculean efforts this season.
I absolutely LOVE every report and preview you do, especially when we're winning. Echo your thoughts about how fantastic it would have been to have been there for the second half of this season. On Saturday, even though Luton were in the ascendancy at HT, I knew we'd win. Bring on Field, stiffen the midfield, let Chair and Willock go, Albert's your Uncle.
Cannot fecking wait to get back there next season, and if they somehow manage to get all four loans back, it could be a very exciting season...*
*6 losses in, Warbs out by October, obvs. |  |

brilliant as ever Clive, your efforts this season in keeping us informed and entertained with previews, reports and your patreon specials is hugely appreciated. You've made these lockdowns a lot more bearable for me and i doubt I am alone in thinking that. |  | | |

Thanks Clive for your ongoing reports and work on this website - being marooned from London it helps make me feel a bit closer to QPR and Loftus Road, a place I miss so much.
Warburton, the players, and the board all deserve huge amounts of credit for the way they turned the season around in January - I really thought we would be toast at one point.
I realised last week that since my first QPR game at home to Southampton in 1996, this is the first season I've gone a whole season without seeing QPR live once. Its the first season I've gone a whole season without seeing QPR at Loftus Road since 1998. I cant wait to go back. |  | | |

Great report as always Clive have enjoyed some of this season particularly thanks to Brian and his match descriptions but will enjoy this coming season of actually being there(Fingers crossed for away games I still have my doubts as I think Boris and Co enjoy saving money on policing at football grounds not really needed with just home fans) Like you I can actually savour and smell and feel some of the games this season. We have won at Cardiff Luton Bristol City Watford and even Swansea just really missing Brentford and Forest on grounds we don't traditionally win at would have been glorious on 4 of them as they were midweek(well nearly in Watford's case) so would've been the die hard 500 or so souls at most of them.
Whatever not sure next season can be worse in terms of attendance as my only game was a 0 0 v Stoke at 5 30 with Keith Stroud in charge and yet going to this having a pint afterwards was probably the highlight of my year | | | |

Thanks very much Clive for all your hard work and efforts producing such brilliant previews and match reports throughout the season. They really are appreciated.
Really looking forward to next season already (and how many times have we been able to say that over the last few years!) |  | | |

Superb mate, as others have said, the last year or so has been more than challenging. Your writings have been great Clive and you provide humour and great insight into QPR FC.
Apart from wishing you a great summer break, and I think you may have done it to tease, Shepherds Bush is not EastEnders, so its the Crown & Sceptre , not the Crown.!

As ever Clive, thank you. Reports have been a real highlight and this one even made me complete regret not making it to the Sceptre to watch a game this year....Covid regrets starting already! | | | |

Thanks Clive thoroughly enjoyed reading the match report. Thanks for keeping us all sane with your fantastic writing throughout the season. Enjoy the break you deserve a rest. Looking forward to hopefully getting back to LR back in August. | | | |

Cheers Clive for all of the match reports & previews this season.
It has been a very strange one. I managed to be there for the Reading game, but it has been proved that you don't need to be there to love your team!
Let's hope that our current feelings for the team are still there this time next year. | | | |

just want to echo what others have said - thanks for your superb work. Often funny, often illuminating, always from the heart . top quality.
And, cheers for the commentaries Brian. And you say you will definitely do it next season, which is why I have to pay the summer retainer? | | | |

Thanks so much Clive for all your consistently brilliant reports and previews - I don't know how you've managed it at times this season. And just as much for keeping this site going: as a social club, a cultural reference point, a mental health club, a source of niche info about all kinds of stuff. It's definitely more than just a fans forum, although it does that really well too, and you're a massive part of that. So heartfelt thanks for all of those things and for making me feel that it's okay to have a bit of crazy obsession with a second tier, and at times basket case, football club.
Thank goodness we're coming out of lockdown now as it would be hard to both have the end of the season and be stuck inside with my new friends Netflix and Amazon Prime. Have a wonderful summer and enjoy the very well deserved rest. |  | | |
