    Thanks. I remember seeing this aerial photo.

    Despite knowing this, from the pitch the Franco-British Exhibition buildings looked surpsingly large and very close. Rather errie and very dramatic in black and white.

    Add Tony Currie to that list, what a player..............

    The Company here finally revealed yesterday that QPR are on ViaSport today, so after a 30 minute wait to get through by phone, and about a £60 fee, I'll see today's game plus get access to few more TV channels showing mostly nothing of interest to me anyway. So a good game and big win today please, You R's.

    I really really want to see a good performance today and some signs of progression under Steve

    A win would be a bonus

    At this stage of the season a streaky 1-0 win would do me. Let’s give him his ten games for signs of progress.

    Hair island!

    Stan he's had the close season to set out his method and vision to the players

    I'm not asking for a win, although that would be nice, just a glimpse of what he is trying to achieve

    Bob's report from Preston of the same same as we played last season was a little disappointing if I'm honest

    Sitting in the W12 club with my wife and son at the moment (a birthday treat for the boy) having just finished a very nice lunch and enjoying a pint of Guiness. Andy Sinton has been over for a chat. This is the way to do it.

    Where are the teams. Normally put them up on the Official an hour before kick-off. Nothing there yet that I found. Or have they changed the rules.

    Ominous stats -

    • Queens Park Rangers are unbeaten in six home league meetings with the Blades (W3 D3) since losing 1-0 to an Andy Gray goal in August 2004.
    • Outside the top-flight, QPR have not lost their opening two league matches of a season since the 1970-71 campaign in the second tier.

    I like that team. It sounded like Sylla was a threat when he came on last week. Smyth is one I always like too with a very direct approach.

    I quite like that team tho I'd like to see Pawel on the Bench at the very least.

    For the last couple of years, the Polish players seem to go to the back of the queue with every new manager. Pav's energy at the end of a game would be handy (especially since all teams aren't 100% match fit).

    Nice back heel from Sylla before a long injury break for Basham

    True. But not much else happening.

    We could potentially add a corner with an interesting tactic of a near post scrum.
