Thread | Birthday message for my boy
at 10:46 24 Jun 2024
Just wondering if anyone had ever asked the club for a birthday message ( a kind of FaceTime thing) for their kids from the manager players etc
If so how did you go about it?
Any help appreciated

Thread | Mascot for the Day
at 10:30 4 Jul 2023
Hi all
My lad turned 8 at the weekend and some of the family have clubbed together to get him the chance to be the mascot looking like the Sunderland game as we are on holiday for Ipswich
Has anyone else had their kids do it, or maybe did it themselves years ago
Any hints tips memories please let me know
He is literally bouncing off the walls in excitement

Thread | My take
at 22:53 21 Feb 2023
So Gaz has now been appointed
Firstly there is part of me that’s excited, I remember his debut v Blackpool at home in about 200 degrees. He scored and was essentially a Tasmanian Devil on the the right hand side which pretty much set the path for his career here, loved him
But why now?
We could have got him post JFH, Holloway, McClaren, Warbs, Bromley Mick or Critchley
At points going for him would have made sense but now seems like the powers that be playing to the gallery
People going on about “style of play” I don’t care to a point. When Gaz was part of Ollys team you’d often see a long diag played to him to knock down to Furs /Gallen then play from there. At times we’ve done this in our most successful teams Heidar was always an out ball
I want to see passion, hard work and a desire to win and if not win that game to go again
and win the next. I couldn’t give a monkeys if you have 80% possession and your predicted goals are 2.88, it’s horse sh!t
I’m not saying we are QPR and we play 44 f’in 2 Mike Bassett style but someone who can get us to be more positive will be a huge breath of fresh air
My boy cried at the weekend, absolutely sobbed (he’d had half term and was tired) but he cried. He wrote a letter to.a player as part of a school project and never got a reply) but while watching soccer Saturday he got so frustrated. I told him as a Rangers fan you sometimes have to go with it even though it’s hard
Tonight my wife is in London was cooking dinner for the kids and told him Ainswiorth was the new Manager. 10 minutes later he walks in the kitchen, ‘Dad he scored some worldies’ (been looking on you tube)
Served his dinner up and as I walked into the room
“Gareth Ainsworths Blue and White Army”
Right behind you Gaz! |

Taking my lad to his 1st game of the season tomorrow
Sal eats in the Upper Loft
Quick question can you still drink in the Blue and White bar or do you have to have a membership for it?
I know there was talk of it in the summer but can’t remember if it went ahead or was scrapped ?

Hi All
My 7 year old is currently mad on Rangers
It took some time but he is 💯 in now.
He got the new away shirt with Chair 10 on it at his request and was asking me last night if he could write to Ilias to tell him how great he thinks he is
Has anyone done this before if so how did you do it and did you get a reply?
Any ideas / suggestions welcomed

Thread | Boys 1st game
at 13:28 15 Feb 2022
Hi all
I’m taking my boy to Hull on Saturday but had a couple of questions that some be able to help with.
He’s under 8 (he’s 6) but does the Under 8’s go free only apply in the Lower Loft looking at the tickets available there’s some right at the front but the weather is meant to be pretty dreadful so don’t want the poor kid getting drenched. Is the front of the lower loft protected from the elements always sat in the Upper Loft so not sure
Also what time do the players arrive for the match as want to see if he can get some autographs if possible and do they still park by the School end?
Any help appreciated

Thread | Help required QPR Teddy
at 09:58 24 Jun 2019
Hi all
Totally random ask but I am trying to get hold of a QPR teddy
A few years ago around 2013 when I found out my little girl was on her way I bought a QPR teddy from the shop. It was a brown bear with the club crest on the foot (Bristol’s creation) and we called it Loftus (subliminal messaging and all that) it also has a blue and white scarf and I think came with a blue hat as well
Now for about 5 years this teddy has largely been ignored but now she and my little boy are having nightly dramas about who gets to have Loftus the bear in their bed.
My boy has his birthday coming up and has declared he wants his own Loftus the bear but the club shop don’t sell it anymore there’s nothing on eBay etc so I am wondering if anyone has one they no longer want.
Can post a picture later if that helps but if anyone could help keep my sanity I’d be happy to pay to take it off your hands
Cheers

Thread | FAO Parents Autism?
at 19:32 6 Feb 2017
Evening.
I just wondered if any fellow R's have Children with Autism. My wife is becoming more convinced that our little girl (3 years old) may be on the spectrum
She has shown me some information on it and there are parts that I can see where she is coming from (random running / skipping up and down sort of one wall to another) repeating phrases she has heard randomly and maybe a couple of other things. For every trait she does display there 10 on the checklist she doesn't.
I'm not someone to bury their head in the sand id do anything for her but equally I kind of think she's just being a 3 year old and the quirky little things she does she may well grow out of. It seems to be so down to personal opinion of the expert you see that I think trying to check at 3 is a bit young as they all develop in different ways some kids do things quicker than others and vice versa.
I don't want to let my little girl down but equally don't want someone labelling her at 3
Any experience appreciated

Thread | Now the dust has settled
at 19:27 1 Sep 2015
So now the window has 'slammed shut' ( copyright SSN) where do we think we currently are?
At the start of the season there were many posts around how we would do etc and plenty of people were predicting falling through the division / mid table if we were lucky
We find ourselves going into the International break 4th in the table but more importantly we now know the shape of the squad for the coming months.
In my opinion we should now be looking to push on and make a big claim to get out of the division.
I don't think anyone believed back in the summer that Charlie, Phillips , Fer and perhaps Green would stay but amazingly they have. With some promising additions such as Luongo, Chery and maybe the two new Watford lads we have as good as first eleven ( on paper) than anyone in this division for my reckoning, maybe defence is a slight worry but when the Prem sides name their 25 man squads we can maybe get a couple of good loan signings as we did in the previous 2 promotions ( Walker, Routledge under Warnock, Morrison under Redknapp the rest of his were middling to poor after that) then perhaps we might surprise ourselves.
We've got rid of a lot of deadwood, sure there's a bit more to go but maybe things are looking up, this is probably I feel the best transfer window we've done in I don't know how long?
Due to the birth of my 2nd kid recently I haven't managed to get down to any games so far despite having a season ticket but I can't wait for my first game under the lights against Blackburn
