Thread | Queen Adelaide gone ?
at 19:41 16 Jul 2020
Driving past. It looks like the Queen Adelaide has gone. Completely boarded up with a lot of mess outside.
Clearly not reopened like a lot of pubs - is this temporary, anyone know ?
(apologies if this has already been posted). |

Thread | Forever R's half time Saturday -posthumous inductions
at 14:45 22 Jan 2018
During a tough time when we can't always get it right on the field - it make you proud to be a QPR supporter when you see the stuff that we are doing off the field.
Saturday's posthumous induction to the Forever R's Club was typical of that.
Andy Sinton must be the best Club Ambassador in football - and I don't know how Ray Jones' Mum managed to keep it together.

Thread | Who was the Referee today ?
at 19:12 17 Jan 2015
It wasn't the bloke in the yellow shirt ...Swarbrick I think his name is.
It was the No. 10 in the red shirt - Rooney. He seemed to be refereeing throughout the game and making all the decisions for the real Ref. |

Back training with Sheffield United today. Will they resign him - could this be a major mistake if they do ?

Thread | Queen Adelaide - what's happening there ?
at 15:13 17 Aug 2014
Went to the Adelaide pre-match on Saturday as usual. Noticed completely different security guys from the previous seasons on the door- two in splendid white shirts and ties. New security company. Initially stopped me to ask if I was a ''Home'' supporter as this is a ''Home Supporters Pub only'' one stated. I had to point out that the Home team play in Blue & White and that mine was a Home shirt that also carried the club badge (they've been briefed well !). In I went. Inside the Adelaide they have made an effort to clear a lot of the bar furniture - tables & chairs, for more and easier standing on match days. By 2pm the pub did not seem particularly crowded which surprised me. Got a txt from a mate - he was just coming down the Uxbridge Road so I got him a pint ready at the bar. Then he calls me to say he can't get in the pub. I go to the door and see that there is quite a sizeable queue outside the pub (probably about 20 people). I engage with the Security guy. ''We are operating a strict capacity policy'' he tells me. ''But, I say, the pub is only currently half full - take a look''. No it's at full capacity and we are now operating on a strict ''one out - one in'' policy - the Management want it that way. Finally my mate got in and got his beer, all fine - but I don't think the Adelaide was ever more than half full from about 1pm until 2.30pm on Saturday. Is the Management trying to shoot themselves in the foot on the day (once a fortnight) that they can really maximise their revenue ? I wonder if they intend to continue with this. Anyone else get caught up in this new system there ? |

Thread | Rio playing or doing MOTD
at 23:25 6 Aug 2014
See that Rio is announced formally as one of the new permanent pundits on MOTD starting new season. Obviously go that cleared in his contract with us. Anyone concerned about this .... priorities etc.. ? Or is this the way of the world ? Charging off after games to the BBC Studios ... or maybe he doesn't intend to play many matches for us anyway ? |

Thread | To sprinkle or not to sprinkle ...
at 21:21 29 Mar 2014
OK, I understand the overall reasoning for putting on the sprinkler system before the game ... and during the half time break but was it just me seeing the ball being held up a lot in the first twenty minutes or so and a lot of water spray around the ball as it was passed ? (or tried to be passed !). It seemed rather excessive today - and did not help us as the ball did not zip off the surface but seemed to be held up. |

Typical - theirs to win and they completely throw it away. I wonder what's in some of their heads at times. Shocking. |
