A few weeks ago when the Coventry game time change was made at the bottom of the notification it read that fans need to be aware that all EFL fixtures are subject to change, and as we are coming towards the build up to the last few games and they may be re-scheduled for a number of reasons. For example, fixture dates/times might change if a match has been selected by Sky Sports for live broadcast in one of its established ‘slots’. usually with at least 7 days notice

Pentultimate week of the season is three weeks notice, so expect news next Thursday.
Final week of the season is one week notice although that's not really an issue as all games are being shown on Sky Sports + and we know when kick off us.

I've always enjoyed going there. Much better than a soulless lego ground in the middle of nowhere.

QPR sell restricted view tickets where a shed built on the away end totally blocks the view. A complete scam that should not be allowed

They used to sell them without the 'restricted view' tab!

This one has real potential to be either a hell of a game and a complete damp squid after a mass scramble for tickets.
Let hope it's still a massive game by the time it comes round.

Loftus Road was really lively back in early '73. The park near the ground saw some action.

I was still a student in London then and went to the game with a couple of mates who were really excited to see Leighton James. They were 2-0 up midway through the first half and it was a disappointing performance from us. Think the 'League Liner' had its inaugural trip that day. QPR had some good players in cluding Dave Thomas in a very lively forward line. Hard to believe that was 52 years ago. Where's it all gone?

By "lively" and "action", do you mean it was full of violent yobboes with no idea how to behave in public?

Why/how could it be a 'complete damp squid'?

Yeah, a damp squid is not really a disappointment, a damp squib tends to be so.

Haven't been on Loftus Road for years, but my main
memory is how narrow and rickety the away seating
upstairs was. Couldn't sit facing forward, had to sort of twist my legs sideways.
Unless they've improved it.

At least they had a wash basin in the gents at the away end last time I went. On many previous visits there was no such luxury fitting.
I like going there though, a few decent pubs in Hammersmith then walk up Hammersmith Grove and through to Uxbridge Road.

It used to be a very rough area of London, especially where the BBC used to be. The coucil estate was pretty much a no-go, but it's improved a lot with the Westfield shopping centre.

One weird thing about QPR is, for a club that so far as I'm aware isn't particularly associated with trouble, how many of the local pubs are home fans only.

The Belushis is generally fine for away fans. It had had a refurb last time we were there so less grim than previously.

First time i went about 2010 pretty sure there was no stupid restrictions and we could pretty much drink anywhere. Last few visits have been hard work. Probably just a big overreaction to a bit of trouble.

Have you received any sort of confirmation of timings, e-ticket, terms and conditions etc?

So does Andy Cole!
His hattrick for us is one of my outstanding Burnley memories.
Holding the ball aloft and walking back to the centre line to a standing ovation, from the whole ground.
Well done QPR fans, in that moment.
