    I think we need a team bonding session. That is us on this forum, not QPR. One bad result and we are fighting among ourselves. As it would be difficult to arrange an Ollie style trip to the local cafe for bacon sandwiches or a paintballing session, why don’t we all describe one good moment from yesterday’s match. It doesn’t have to have been on the field, it could be from your journey, something around the ground, anything.

    What’s yours then Roller I hear you say. Well, mine would be the interaction I had with other Ranger’s fans during the day. I had a good chat with one on the train coming up, another good chat with one sitting on the wall just passed the Loftus Road entrance to the ground, and, best of all, the one I had with the wise, venerable gentleman in the seat to my left. All the conversations centred around QPR, but all digressed onto a series of other topics. We have a great bunch of supporters from a variety of backgrounds and with a variety of beliefs. I enjoyed my conversations with them all.

    So come on, tell me something good that you enjoyed regarding yesterday’s match.

    I couldn't get to the game yesterday but bumped into a R's fan (he was wearing his QPR shirt), in Tesco's yesterday morning...made polite conversation in saying..'U R's' as I passed him and then stopped to chat for about 10 mins on how we would get on against Bolton and again a few other topics related to QPR..turns out he only lives round the corner from me...

    Seeing Dyer on the stretcher. Maybe now we'll sign a player that can run.

    Pride lads we did play some good football yesterday but you could smell the fear after the silly second goal and the rest is history now. Maybe the team needed this lesson I still believe that we are capable of putting 4 goals away when we flow... the tables will turn and its a great week to look forward to.... ONLY 3 POINTS BEHIND THE CHAMPIONS ... GAME ON

    Best thing about yesterday? THE FANS.

    Never put a foot or voice wrong all day.

    Right behind the team from start to finish. Rubbished Briatore when the going got rough. Big Warnock chant when we went 0-4 down... and best of all in the midst of defeat and disappointment, hailed the team big time for several minutes after the final whistle.

    Great time sharing opinions with the Rs diehard next to me... and came across an Aussie R (accent and all) who had travelled up for this and the Everton game. Thought it was MelbourneDave for a moment but Roller told me later than MD had been posting that morning so can't have been. UANZAKsss !

    Given the summer all fans have had, the club has every reason to be proud. Let's hope that translates into renewed respect... won't hold me breath just yet.

    The final whistle! And the belief that this board room crap can't carry on too much longer.

    The train from Brighton only takes one hour with a change at Clapham Junction then overground to the Bush...Didn't know that...
    Used to go to victoria then underground. Makes the journey much quicker.

    View from season ticket seat was better than i expected.
    Realised again what a really crap loser i am. And that i have got to try and enjoy the game even when we get battered because it's gonna happen.

    Fantastic Col. You'll remember that for the rest of your life.

    MOM (for us). I fear for us if he gets injured.

    Watching them run out of the tunnel at the start with that now famous tune pumping in the background.

    Not ashamed to say it, I had goosebumps!
