    Interesting. I was in upper Loft and I didn't see one person leave around me. I did think that strange at the time. It was almost like something was going to happen......

    Yep WBA2 QPR3.....I was 19 and in the Royal Navy but on leave so went with my dad. At half time he said it was all over but I told him straight, we would win 3-2. He made me give him his Pools numbers that week.....only got the QPR decision right....never asked me again. But last nights come back may be the most financially important if those points among others keep us up. I was with two of my sons who are Liverpool supporters and have to say it was a very quiet journey home. Not that quiet after the away game though and the journey was far longer too. Am wishing on a star right now lets hope I am still wishing by Sunday.

    It doesn't compare to last night or 67, but I remember a fantastic game at LR against Leicester back in 2004 - had to look up the year, still can't believe it was 8 years ago. In the first half Leicester snuffed out our attack with an enormous back line which included Dion Dublin. They were 2 up at half time.
    In the second half they had a player sent off early in the 2nd and re-arranged pushing Dublin up as the sole striker. From then on it was all us and the crowd got right behind the team - Cook scored, furlong equalised. We rained shots down on them, the atmosphere was electric. Then in 90+ Furlong won it for us.
    My boys were with me - unbelievable!!

    You're so right mate. We overheard a bloke on his phone behind The Springbok saying that he was gutted, as he left with half an hour to go!! Unbelievable!!

    In my book yesterdays match is the greatest comeback of all time. That is just because my dear brother has been a pool-fan even longer (-69) than i have been a qpr-fan(-72). Iwas talking on the phone to him when Mackie score the winner. Just said to him it was a revenge of may -75...... Then i have to consolate him and said we would never score goal one or two if they still would have a someone like Sami Hyypiä playing in the middle of their defence. Nevertheless i get my revenge.

    Although yesterdays result was as big as any I doubt any match will ever top Derby last year. Pure euphoria.

    At least a 1/3 of the ground had left and afterwards running round screaming and shouting outside pride park with Derby fans looking on with bemusement as in their minds they'd just left att 90 mins having recorded a comfortable 2-0 win.

    Brilliant.
