Surviving in the Championship is overrated. Its only value lies in the fact that the Championship is where you get promoted to the Prem from. If your plan is Prem after five years but you're not a realistic contender for the automatic spots this year, you're literally better off spending years 2-4 in League One than spending them in the Championship. |

Right, but you can't announce the same news twice. Is the controversy around the definition of "constant" as it relates to content? To us, constant means we find out 10 minutes after the club finds out, whereas to a TikTok kid, constant means a predictable flow of non-information, plus major announcements timed to occur just as you're getting bored.
Every football fan since 1860 has wished that their club would treat them with more respect, but here we are. I don't "accept" it. It's crap. But how else do you explain the facts that are in front of you - is Nourry getting up in the morning and thinking "how can I piss off the legacy fans today so they go and watch Hayes & Yeading instead?" |

Being as pragmatic as possible about this, which I know is not the point of being a football fan but whatever:
If you're one of us slightly odd "legacy fans" (ugh) who consider it a point of pride to support the club in the same way we've always done regardless of owner, manager, league division or marketing efforts, would it actually surprise you to be told, yes, the club DOES try harder to appeal to 20-year-old TikTok celebrities than to us? 20-year-old TikTok celebrities who might decide that watching Chelsea is a perfectly good alternative if QPR doesn't pass the vibe check?
We aren't even good for word-of-mouth, because our social circles tend to be people like us, who already know which team they support, and if it isn't QPR, we actively discourage them from switching to QPR. You'll never be a real QPR fan unless it was forced on you as a child, we tell them.
So if Nourry were to come on here, and we asked him why the club seems to have a policy of finding out what we want and then doing the opposite, what would you want him to do - confirm that we don't really matter, or feed us some reassuring bollocks? |

Crap, is what it is. Total crap, all of it. There are people who say it isn't crap, but they're wrong. It was crap before and it's crap now and it will continue to be crap. When things are going badly it's because they're crap and when things are going well they're still crap under the surface. There is no chance of them not being crap, none at all. Crap is just what we have to put up with. There was a time when it looked like it might not be crap, but that time is gone now, and to tell you the truth it was still crap even then. Other clubs were crap and did something about it and stopped being crap, but if you tried that at QPR you'd just be descending even further into the crap. There is no escaping the crap. It is equally crap in whichever direction you look. The parts of it individually are crap and the whole is more crap than the sum of the parts. It's probably even more crap than we realise. When people are going on the instatubes and telling you it's crap, you should believe them. Our mascot ought to be a talking pile of crap, that's how crap it is. Don't take the end of this comment as a sign that it's stopped being crap, because it hasn't, I've just run out of words to tell you how crap it is. |

Thread | Sunderland (A) ticket arrangements?

Does anyone know if and when we can buy tickets for May 3rd at Sunderland? There's normally a loyalty window 2 weeks in advance and an announcement prior to that, but so far nothing...? |

Guys. If we'd lost to Oxford, the five teams below us would have needed a combined 15 points to send us down. Now, the seven teams below us need a combined 35 points. This is fine. |

Now I'm just eager to find out how much further Clive can extend his ejaculatory metaphors after Leicester (A). Enough cum to make Loftus Road lift off its foundations and float away down South Africa Road, do you reckon?  |
