    a few years ago I paid £30 for a "gold" ticket at Loftus Road and got soaked from a hole on the roof. QPR are Rob dogs who should be deducted 12 points under the Trades Descriptions Act.

    This bunch will probably reopen west stand to divert any bad news that probably just around the corner, player's sold this January being a example

    You can have as many staff as you want in the West Stand. Staff members are insured. Fans aren't.

    Best place to sit is always on the back row.

    One thing I’ve often wondered is that when you are on the back row of the ESL, and you jump up several times, do the people behind you bang on the glass and shout “SIT DARN!!”??

    I've often wondered if anybody had been scolded by a Bovril falling off the wall above them. Or pebble dashed by a balti pie exploding on their head? Has it ever happened? Food falling from the East Stand Upper to the Lower.

    Doubt it. Most of us up there are of a certain age. We were brought up not to waste food.

    Nah it’s high enough that you aren’t in the way even if you stand up.

    What if you're really, really tall and wear a big top hat?
