As expected - Coventry A final day of the season moves to 12.30
at 09:16 21 Mar 2024

I'm led to believe that the contingency in place for this is that they'll swap the League 2 and Championship playoff finals around as they're on differing weekends...

Serious question on FFP - Player transfer's

which begs the question, why don't we sell Taylor Richards to LAFC for £15million and sort ourselves out, and Taylor gets to play out the rest of his days in LA...

Question about the QPR Bond
at 10:07 18 Jan 2024

Yeah, i've got quite a bit of money tied up in the QPR Bond, so i'm keeping a fairly keen eye on the financial wellbeing of the club!

the promotion clause is specific to the premier league unfortunately

Speed awareness courses.

did mine a year ago and the instructor gave us a top tip to keep your car in sports mode if you have it as the higher revs alert you to your speed and you're less likely to creep over the limit apparently.

haven't been out of sport mode since

Just for some sort of balance though, there's no point in quick distribution if the person you're distributing it to isn't looking to receive it, otherwise it's just giving the ball back to the opposition needlessly (and we don't need any more help in doing that)

The Cardiff game for example - you gave Begovic some verbals for not releasing the ball early to Kolli, but Kolli had his back to the game and was not looking at the play at all - If the instruction is to release early, the players up field need to be alert to this...

Half Season Review - Live now on the Patreon
at 12:16 21 Dec 2023

Hi guys, Andy here - I run the Patreon for Clive, and i'm additionally the voice in his ear when he's about to say/do/embark on something stupid (neither salaried positions).

Clive is under strict, pain of death instructions to do this sort of round table podcast a couple of times a year maximum - Pre Season / Halfway Point / Post Season / When we sack the manager...

This type of discussion / podcast isn't meant to rival Finney's podcast, which occupies it's own space and own niche with it's own target audience, it stands alone as a complement to Clive's output.

What i like in particular about this discussion is that all the guests clearly know their stuff and are able to back up a high(ish) level discussion with keenly observed points and counter points. I've pushed back numerous times Clive's suggestions about weekly post match in the pub 'vox pops', as I don't think this is what Clive's selling point or place in the QPR Community is, nor why people are so keen to listen to and read Clive's work - it's high level, deep dive stuff (with Moneyball references and nob jokes...)

Basically, infrequent round tables with high calibre guests > weekly chats with Jeff from F Block.

one that always stands out for me was Cerny vs Man Utd away in the cup.

took a moody Tevez penalty to finally get past him...

hopefully RBlock will be along shortly to clear up the nuances of manslaughter, accidental or otherwise, but it's an arrest that had to happen, even if nothing comes of it.

Ice Hockey is an inherently dangerous sport, the incident happened as a result of a body check so there is at least intent to cause harm (even within the acceptable parameters of ice hockey) and the guy's skates were at an unusual / unnatural position, so there are enquiries and conversations to at least be had.

i'm sure this is a tragic and freak accident, but an investigation needs to happen and the arrest is the first part of it...

Nick is on this site as OzRanger i believe...

Had the privilege of looking at some of the programs from the turn of the 20th century with Nick a couple of months ago and let me tell you, the fear that i somehow tripped, fell and ripped them in half was real!

it's an incredible collection he's got.

I believe that this was a message board / the twitter rumour, and not actually true.

I think he was one of those people who we kept stringing along about offering a contract at the end of the season, so he had no idea what was happening, and he wanted to stay, but we then offered some soft of derisory insulting offer that he naturally rejected, but we could then say 'we offering Barbet a deal but he turned it down...'

Beer at football grounds.
at 13:45 19 Oct 2023

Spurs have got a beavertown brewery on site, so it's Neck Oil etc.

Wembley is already showing its age horrifically in terms of customer service on the concourse - was with Clive for the NFL game, and as he mentioned, it was canned budweiser. but worse than that, they had no setup for delivery at all, so you you ask at the counter for 4 budweisers, and the minimum wage guy trudges over to the table at the back, opens four cans from a blister pack, pours them and then hands them over. there's no-one doing the pre-pouring or having 50 pints ready to go, it's so inefficient.

in comparison, was at the Spurs stadium for the NFL games and they're like lightning - proper selection of beers, got the fill from the bottom widget so it's super fast and comes out like a pint, and they had plenty of staff doing the filling up at the back so delivery was instant.

I know that spurs is the first 'American style' full service stadium in the UK, but the difference in experience between that and Wembley was night and day.

Amit’s put club up for sale!

haven't you heard? people who 'care and can' come in six packs now, they're everywhere. literally bumped into two on the high street getting my lunch.

the 'passing the baton' metaphor is surprisingly apt, for in a relay race to pass the baton on you need someone willing to accept it, and if you don't pass the baton on you end up dropping it which means disqualification...

The club has been up for sale for the best part of 5 years.

if there was someone who would come in, buy the club, and take on the responsibility of paying £2m a month to keep the 41st best club in the country from disappearing into L1 and even more financial obscurity, there would be a cartoon hole in the wall in the shape of Ruben, Amit and probably Reilly. You wouldn't see them for dust.

Steve Palmer - Patreon
at 11:19 3 Oct 2023

Moring Eric, i'm Andy the Patreon guy, even though my profile name is Jeff. confusing, right?

seen this before with Patreon members who have either declined or had payment issues before finally going through - what's happened is that your status is currently set to 'Downgraded' until a payment goes through, which is at the end of the month. After the 1st November payment goes through, you'll be upgraded back to 'active'

i've sent to your personal email a link to the Palmer interview you download and listen to 'offline' in the interim, if you're still having issues post 1st November pay cycle, please let me know.

Cheers,

2023 NFL Season *NON QPR
at 08:59 12 Sep 2023

I'm a Seahawks fan, so was desperately attempting to get tickets to the Munich game vs the Buccs last year, but like all nice things on Ticketmaster, was sold out before it even went on sale - entered the queue somewhere at the 300,000 mark or something silly.

As it turned out, i was in Seattle for the fortnight before the Munich game, and my flight home was completely full of hundred Seahawks fans flying to London to change to Munich for the game, so clearly had a massive international (can you call the US international for an NFL game?) pull
