This is a thoroughly good read. I recommend it to everyone, especially after having had to endure so many despondent reports over the last few months.
I particularly liked this nugget:
Dickie’s third brave headed clearance of a goalbound shot of the day comes four minutes before half time – the league have taken pity, we’re being allowed to play with a second goalkeeper.
So true:
The tone for the second half is set before the second half begins. QPR are late out. One wonders whether there’s been a Great Escape-style debate about a tunnelling expedition of some sort. Gareth Ainsworth comes out last of all, dressed like a walking midlife crisis.
I wish i'd been there:
Those of us actually there amongst it will stay, forever this way, on the off chance something like this happens. It’s been a long time between drinks, but it’s a hell of a drink when it finally hits once more.
Credit to the 511 fans who made the round trip - you should all be proud of yourselves for keeping the faith just when so many of us had given up the ghost. I'm not saying we'll ever change our allegiance - that's preposterous - but drive 250 miles to watch another league defeat? Not on this occasion! Well i wish i had.
Come on your R's !!
