By the way, I thought this thread was about the character and spirit of QPR being dead at the club, which I would agree with! It's not our QPR anymore. It's something else. A hollow team and management with no club ethic and feel.
I actually don't think I'd support a team but just enjoy whoever happens to be playing at the time. There's always England I suppose! That would be most like supporting QPR - all promise and no substance.
It's in my DNA, so Rangers til I die - I've been following the R's for almost 50 years now. Before that I followed Andover Town FC (Hampshire) where I grew up. Their biggest claim to fame was in the FA Cup when they beat Hendon 4-3, but lost 1-0 to Gillingham in the next round at the Walled Meadow, which I guess is a darn sight better than what the R's dish up in Cup games these days.
I was born in London but spent 37 of my 38 years growing up in Reading. Let me tell you I would not even entertain the though of starting to support my local team the trolley boys, no way on F**king earth.
Never ever had a second team so it's a sad nil return from me. I've tried to rack my brains out but I can honestly say that I don't have any feelings for any other club. Not even an inoffensive foreign one. I do now realise that when I watch other matches on the box, I sub-consciously side with one side for the most trivial reasons just to give it an edge. That's as close as it gets for me.
You are experiencing a nightmare in the highest regard. STEP - 1........ If you can't wake up fully, ask your partner to slap you on either side of the face. STEP - 2........

Now write 1,000 times, I must not be foolish and even suggest QPR are long, gone and dead. STEP - 6 ....... Report back to forum with renewed vigour to support the mighty R'rrrsssssss. This is a cost free consultation ............. ( I'm bulk billing the forum ) Your prescription is some free REP Dr Aussie
wellington phoenix ONLY CAUSE THEY ARE NOW MY LOCAL TEAM but I would be sad every week cause the A league is ****
Being already a season ticket holder at Norrköping, they would just go from #2 to #1. Perish the thought, though!
Good question. Could never support another League side as is, so would opt for my local side, The Swans, Staines FC. Or as a lot of my mates follow them, Hampton and Richmond FC, at least we could have a few beers on match day.
My local team AFC Hornchurch. Once known as the Chelsea of non league. Went bust, regrouped as AFC. Flirted with Conference South last year and now pushing for Rymans play off place. Still go when there's no Rs clash.
No other team...but, we could start a new club called QPR606...so nothing like the banned club, and then under the management of QPR999 and Roller, the ultimate management team, we could rise up from the ashes...the likes of, Quite Possibly Raving, Sooper, Flyer, Grifter, Sku, Kilburn, Norway, Col, Tranmore, awjm, and of course, Beth would mould us into a team to be feared. Coaching staff full of experienced retired pro's, including Northolt...Paul Froud would be the fiery midfielder, who we signed after the mysterious disappearance of the Secret Ranger, who himself was signed after DT's disappearance. RTID as the unused sub each week (I have played football with him, and trust me, best place for him), we could make our mark with a big signing from South America, cue Peruvian, and then kiwi being brought in from New Zealand... (Anyone else welcome on the team, don't be upset you didn't make it this time, but neither did I) We could play at the now abandoned Loftus Road, after the collapse of the old tenants, and rename the stadium, The Brixton Stadium...I almost want QPR to go under now, so the above can happen.
