Loads of praise for our support today


Love to read all the comments that we had fans in every corner of the stadium as well as the away end..my cousin phoned me just before the game as he lives down there to see if I was going. I just watched it on the box but he was going with his son in one of the home ends
 
during the game i thought it was a great atmosphere in our end but, and i'm loathed to say it before kick off during the laying of the rememberance wreath and the silence some didn't cover themselves in glory. i know a lot were on the concourse but surely you must be aware that when a stadium goes silent there's something going on. all the 'shushes' from the stand didn't help either.
 
How come only had the upper tier?

Last few times we’ve been we’ve sold out upper and lower

QPR aren’t giving the lower any more to any team. Same reason we stopped giving away fans the South Stand, the thinking behind it being it gives away teams an advantage. The funny thing is I don’t think they’ve won at home yet all season since doing this.

To be fair it was chaos on the concourse, I didn’t realise until I was up the steps into the ground.
 
Was fantastic like, all game and probably helped the team get through it. This was all from the TV but the bairn said it was class

Someone at the pub was "innocently" asking how the gate looked like being around 2,000 higher than their average. Can't think why.

There were about 500 of us still trying to get through turnstiles that were only scanning about 50% of tickets at that point. The crush was becoming dangerous and things were getting heated to say the least. That was probably where the noise was cming from. I think I finally got in about 3.15.
