I hope that from last season's match day threads there is at least some awareness among some posters of the existence of the Luke Amos Fan Club. As Life President of the LAFC, I thought I ought to create a virtual home for fellow club members to post. If any of you would like a formal position in the club, please just me know which vacancy below catches your fancy and I'll add your name. I'm also happy to create new vacancies if any of you have a particular job title you fancy.

Now, some of you probably think the LAFC is tongue-in-cheek and my way of just having a bit of fun. You're 75% correct. I would, however, make two very brief semi-serious points.
One is that we can very quickly pick a boo boy in any QPR squad and ascribe all our woes down to one player, becoming negative in no time at all. I thought it would be nice to do the opposite, and just pick a squad player and really root for them and cheer them on beyond what they perhaps deserve. It's a little way of saying that the more we get behind players, in this case Luke, and encourage them, the better.
The second is that I do think Amos has done remarkably well to come back from two awful injuries. From what I've seen he has the potential to be a very good player at this level and he scored some key goals for us last year. Given a good run in the side, I think this could be a breakout season for Luke.
So what better time to join LAFC? Come on you R's!
