[Albion] QPR away - who’s going?

[theboybilly]

Decent preseason friendly on a Saturday afternoon in London at a proper old school ground - will be a great day out

'Old school ground' Horrible away end with a view of the crossbar in the School End top tier if you're lucky. If they give us the bottom tier I'll go in there but if not I'll try for the Stan Bowles Stand. Plenty of places to eat and drink outside of Shepherds Bush before heading in at the last-minute too. I'll make a proper day of it.

Live in West London so no excuse not to! Should be a good bit of blue and white fratricide

Don Shanks, Lua Lua & Leon Knight...



I'll be there in the one of the home ends.

Same here I think, or the Stan Bowles Stand

As long as Japanese ticket prices aren't in place, probably.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Yes will definitely go

 

[jackalbion]

I’ll be there 🫡

The MET kindly gave us our own tube train, they then walked us up Uxbridge Road where QPR tried to attack the lads in the escort without much success I might add.
Wouldn’t bother with a friendly though they are all shit.

Was this when the Met rounded all the Albion fans up in Hammersmith and put us in a pub?
I remember the Met surrounded the pub and wouldn’t let us leave, they then gave us an escort to the tube, searched everyone and then an escort to Loftus Rd to make kick off by seconds.

That’s the one

Part of the deal to bring in Marti Cifuentes as our new boss?

Danny Cullip

Really?!

Could well make the trip. Last time I went to Loftus Road was one of the Micky Mouse cups. Clarke Carlisle kicked the proverbial out of Leon Knight.

Always rated Clarke Carlisle

It has occurred to me that Albion could do worse. He transformed them from relegation certainties to comfortable survival, and played some very good football too.

 

[tjg]

I was there in 1973. One of the last games of the season, as I recall they were already promoted and we were already relegated

 

[Lincolnshire Seagull]

Last season's pre-season friendly was at Reading and we were singing for Cucurella to stay. I wonder what we'll be singing for this time.

I'll be there.

Mullery, Byrne, Zamora, John Gregory - must be a couple of more ’connections’ over the years?

Gary Borrowdale just popped into my head.

 

[AZ Gull]

Gary Chivers?

It is the (very sadly) late Michael Robinson.

 

[dazzer6666]

I’ll go. How many loyalty points do we get ?
