Fans were, to varying degrees, trying to come to terms with the welter of interviews and press statements coming out of the Continue reading

On a day when both knew that nothing less Continue reading

So it really is all over bar the shouting down at Loftus Road. Not even the most rose-tinted of spectacles could enable the wearer to entertain that there is any hope left in this moribund Premier League campaign. Once again our beloved Hoops meekly capitulated to a poor Stoke side that had the feel of Continue reading

I met Gareth last September at the launch of Peter Trott’s book: ‘Wormholt Park – The First Hundred Years’. He told me a bit about his work and that he’s also an R’s fan. He’s now been nominated for one of the first Agilisys H & F Heroes Awards. Emma Heseltine wrote the following article Continue reading

The last time I went to Villa Park was nearly twenty years ago. To be precise it was Saturday 13th August 1993, the first game of the season. It was a forgettable game and a forgettable score-line. Ron Atkinson’s side mullered us 4-1 that day. A brace from Dalian Atkinson, and goals from Dean Saunders Continue reading
