Even the Championship can be a pain in the arse, ridiculous prices, having to buy in advance, although our crowds have dropped to the point you can buy on the day for some games and the matchday experience is becoming a less than enjoyable experience. The crap football we play doesn't encourage you to pay through the nose either. As I've said before non-league can often provide a much better matchday experience simply because there is far more of an 'intimate' atmosphere where many regulars can have a drink and not take everything quite so seriously. Talking of seriously, I've been offered a ticket to Millwall on Friday in the Millwall end...
For some reason I don't understand...I've just bought a ticket...I'm off to the match tonight. Wish me luck Sent from my STF-L09 using Tapatalk
Excellent piece by John Giles in the Irish Independent and certainly sums up how the Premier League views pre 1992 football....... John Giles: This deliberate attempt to rewrite history with a slew of bogus records is pathetic please log in to view this image John Giles December 28 2017 2:00 PM I wonder if Harry Kane feels the way I do about the latest record he has broken? I wonder if he thinks about Jimmy Greaves and not Alan Shearer when he's counting his goals? Jimmy Greaves scored 59 goals in a calendar year in 1962, hardly back at the dawn of time, and he wasn't the best of them. Dixie Dean hit 63 in 1927 and I'd bet Greaves had that number in his sights when he was doing his stuff. Alan Shearer's League total was 36, topped now by Kane who has 39 League goals and an impressive 56 in all games for the year. But, even when you factor in more games played by Dean and Greaves, there are still ahead of Kane's Premier League mark.

As we all know football didn't exist before 1992. Greaves was in a class of his own as the greatest post war striker bar none, I was lucky enough to see him play a few times in the late 60s and he just made scoring look so simple...
Greaves was a great goalscorer, I saw him score 4 in the 9-3 defeat of the Sweaties. Probably the closest to him since as a finisher is Defoe.
Reading just taken the lead at Barnsley. Half watching this game, neither team looks any better than us, except Reading managed to score, a bit against the run of play.
Not happy. 5 points off the drop zone and next up Cardiff who will be very keen to stop their 3 game losing run. Brentford in front of us. The hated Millwall do the double over us. Def a bad weekend of QPR football. Olly. Sort it out or go!
This is the weekend we officially joined the relegation candidates. Every team below us won or drew so the momentum is shifting. Cardiff now looking a massive game as will Burton away...
Bloody hell just seen the rest of the results, about as bad as it could get........have to get a result on Monday as it's now time tonstart looking over our shoulders............
