    Stewarding is a massive problem at the Bridge. You face getting ejected if you stand ffs! How are you supposed to create atmosphere sitting still?

    Agree though I think the problem comes from the tiers being low in the shed and MH. If people stand up you literally can't see from about two thirds back. Big design flaw.

    Dear o dear you lot are really upset about Jose comments aren't you. How does it fill having your manager say you have s##t fans?
    Lets sort these Jose comments outs.
    Fact
    The reason your ground sounded like a library was not because you were playing QPR but because you have loads of plastic tourists who have only been there since Roman and your success, (check your history if you need to see). By the way your history for most of you is 10Yrs so it maybe hard.
    Our fans at the game were fab like they are at home every other week. Like all the commentators say it maybe a small ground but its noisier then grounds with 40 50K (I guess they mean Chelsea/Arse/ and co)

    As for filling our 'poky ground' we do but sadly sometimes away fans don't always fill end out. However when you look back over the last 18 yrs we have spent most of the time in a lower division so we have missed out on newer younger fans who seem to follow teams that spend billions (like Chelsea).

    AS for ever knocking our home or away support we have a regular hard core that is one of the best, maybe not the biggest but percentage wise is good.

    Lets face it your fans were s##t on Saturday where ours were fab. When you last sneaked in and out of Loftus Rd your fans were s##t then. I thought you away support was toilet and only time you made a noise was when you scored (Fa cup game) or when you got players sent off. When Wright Phillips scored at SB 2 years ago you had the biggest fire drill in football history.
    So I can understand how Jose feels.
    I never mentioned the SB library scene it was your own Manager because he sees it week in and out.

    As for the excuses on the radio phone ins? I nearly choked on my coffee with some of the cr#p from plastic Chelsea fans.
    As I said you have a better team and we have better fans, get over it or get Roman to buy some singing fans that wll go with those big flags.

    This is the bit I referred to as bollocks, which it is. The rest is just the usual tedious s**te you come out with whenever you're on here Ellers. Nobody on here has even questioned the fact that the atmosphere at the Bridge is s**t so how have you worked out we're upset?

    Now go and spew some bile about how bad a club we are elsewhere because frankly Ellers, nobody has or ever will give a f** about your opinion on here <ok>.

    So we apparently only have plastic fans but you get small crowds because you haven't been able to attract plastic fans. Right....so you dont want plastic fans but you use the lack of them to justify the pony crowds you have?

    This is frankly a load of absolute waffle.

    There isn't anything remotely special about QPR's support. We get noisy fans in the away end at S.B weekly. Why? Because playing us is a great day out for most travelling fans, playing a European giant. Where as it's a little harder for our fans to get up for playing a tin pot outfit like yours. Fact.

    Are you ******ed? The palace fans sign regardless, the Bridge is getting like the new Library , and Jose has every right to say something, a loud noisy crowd helps the team! If all you want to do is sit on your backside and not even cheer the team on , STAY AT HOME!

    I don't think you should have to sing all through the game to be supporting your team. I personally love a sing song before and after but during the game I'm normally so focused and nervous to be concentrating on singing constantly in play. I don't personally get the types of fans who spend half their time facing away from the game like some sort of singing conductor. Each to their own I guess.

    S.B needs livening up and a decent singing section would help as would either being allowed to stand or have a standing section.

    Ellers, your getting all giddy mate.

    You need to understand we are a European giant known the world over. Saturday was your biggest game of the season absolutely no doubt about about it and as a result little club syndrome kicked in and you got all excited. Much like Shrewsbury earlier in the week - nothing wrong with that, it is what it is.

    In stark contrast the game on Saturday will likely rank as about the 50th biggest game we'll face come the end of the season. You have zero pulling power to us and the fact you matter so little seems to irk you lot so my apologies for that.

    Historically our support is talked about by virtually every team we faced back in the day and we are renowned all over Europe. Again, in stark contrast QPR are mentioned by no one. In Europe your no better known than Crewe Alexander. Harsh but true.

    In your weepie post your refer to plastics. Have you forgotten that just over a decade ago QPR averaged less than 12,000 fans? In fact, even in the last decade I believe you've had less than 13,000. Where were the 'hardcore' Wembley 40,000? :emoticon-0100-smile

    I've said before and I repeat that there are probably around 30 clubs in England alone I dislike more than QPR. I grew up with some good hoops mates and I wish both them and Rangers well in the future. Good luck.

    Pretty much spot on.

    If QPR played a home match, say in one of the cups v say AFC Wimbledon, how lively do we think their home support would be? Firstly they'd probably only get a gate of about 23 people and you can guarantee they'd be nowhere near as lively as the away fans at the weekend.

    The simple premise of away fans are normally louder per man than home fans plus the underdog element seems lost on this poor pup.

    Exactly, how noisy were Rangers when they played Burton this season?

    I doubt they made too much noise. They only had about 400/500 there. :biggrin:

    The Cup tie against QPR at Loftus Road, 2012, was the quietest away game I went to that season. Eeerie and weirdly quiet, maybe to do with all the Terry Ferds bulls**t.

    I remember shouting a couple of Rrrrrs mates from the Lower Schools to South Africa Upper and they heard me fine!! Could not get in the Crown & Sceptre without home match ticket too

    Yeah sure. If you went then you were one of the sheep that sneaked in and out. I once heard of the Chelsea Headhunters but now it's the Chelsea Househunters. Never seen a club change so much. It was fun when QPR took over Chelsea last time.

    Football has changed, get the **** over it. You just seem to be perpetually crying about it.

    The usual response from Drogs. I have also just noticed that you are a mod of the Chelsea board. Well done mate you must have really stood out of the crowd for that post. Must have been hard on here.
