Independent Rs Messageboard

Difficult game to predict as it depends upon which QPR team turns up. I think the run of 0-0 results will not continue and I think it will be a narrow Rs victory. Hopefully all the talk will not be about the state of the pitch and the deafening silence from the club in that respect has been disgrace...

And one snowflake on the way to the ground results in postponed games now!

Well that was a truly awful game played in awful conditions not helped by the open ended stadium design. Full marks to the fans who went.

With much cold ...

Big discussions on other Boards about the state of the pitch. Obviously grass will not regrow now and it will only deteriorate further to be the pitch of 60 years ago. Any regulations stating it must be grass covered I wonder. Whatever has happened seems to have spirited away the artificial grass wi...
