QPR, you gotta love them. Hammers fan myself but it is stadiums like Loftus Road and Craven Cottage that remind me of the sorely missed Boleyn Ground.

I feel you friend. my dad was a hammers fan. he passed a couple of years ago. we used to go to many away games, as we lived up north. the heart of east ham has been removed. boleyn ground was east ham/upton park. all those pie shops and pubs that have gone is criminal. nothing wrong with boleyn ground. it was beautiful. now the team has a vacuous stadium with no soul. and the old ground has destroyed what once was west ham. very sad. all for money. but still....

Great tour guys, So about Loftus Road as a venue to watch football. It's old it's cramped and it's small by premier League standards, BUT...... When that place is packed to the rafters and rocking there are stadiums 4 times the size that can't generate an atmosphere to rival it. I will miss it when we finally have to leave but until then, it's my home and I love it.

It’s small even by championship standards. Stopped going there 20 years ago. Very dated and cramped it was okay back in the day when I was paying circa £15 to get in . But people expect more these days . Football isn’t cheap these days if I’m paying £40 for a seat I want to watch a game with plenty of leg room a comfortable seat and a good view. If QPR had a half decent stadium. Probably still be following them .

Please don't call our football teams franchises. They're not chains of Macdonalds. This isn't the nfl.

The cat’s name was Jude. The reason for the name, is due to our history. Our club was formed by amalgamating two teams, Christ Church Rangers and St. Jude’s Institute. The key characters who formed the club, were based in Queen’s Park, hence, Queen’s Park Rangers. Jude was a black cat, and it was considered unlucky not to name the cat.

Just guessing…but are you QPR fan? Unlucky against the most mighty and glorious Luton Town last season. We are Premier League. Hope QPR have a decent season though. A lovely chap and true friend is a fan so because of him I’ve gone from disliking Quarter Pound of Rubbish to wanting them to win. Gareth Ainsworth is a good manager too. If QPR give him time he’ll do great for QPR.

My husband would have loved to walk out on the pitch with Stan bowles and all the 75/76 team he has been a fan since 1973 he says he might have to find his boots again when qpr fail to score, only thing is he would need oxygen at half time he is 62 he says the mind is there but the body isn't
