Read this comment earlier this evening: “Vincent Kompany has been in charge 6 months, yet is the 9th longest servicing manager in the Championship.”
Longest serving Championship Managers: 1) Mark Robins (Coventry City) 2) Gary Rowett (Millwall) 3) Nigel Pearson (Bristol City) 4) Russell Martin (Swansea City)
A few from our WhatsApp group travelling over today, congregating in C&S from midday ish onwards....... if anyone fancies a pint with them.
Does that include QPRnuts? He’s on the way with a bunch of mates too, also aiming for the C&S at midday. Seems like it will be an Irish pub for the day. I aim to get there by 1:00.
Yep Nutso's in our WhatsApp group as well as Inkedup who used to post on here, both in the travelling group today. Have Fun....... BTW it was beer for breakfast at Dublin Airport......
Picture from the match at Loftus Road on 2nd February 1980 - Robbie James chasing a QPR player. Any ideas about the identity of your player? QPR ran out 3-2 winners in a Second Division match.
