      Love Loftus Road. Will be gutted when we leave it. It's a $hit hole, but it's our $hit hole. Can't stand the new soulless bowls like Reading, Leicester etc with nothing within a 20min walk.
      You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

        Totally agree
        I blew a lot on vodka and tonic, gambling and fags. Looking back, I think I overdid it on the tonic. - The one and only Stanley Bowles

Surely they could try it in grounds like ours! Hillsborough was very tragic and should never of happened but it was more down to the stewardship and policing than fans fault.

          Used to love to stand in the Loft and the paddocks, never an issue with congestion because we are a small ground. Unfortunately it was the smaller grounds that have suffered more after Hillsborough than the larger grounds.
          I would love to see the old loft back, even if it was only the bottom tier, what has always puzzled me is why did the FA give liverpool the smaller end and not the Hillsborough kop what is much bigger

                  We used to own the houses behind Ellersie and Loftus Rd so we could have built back in three directions had previous owners had foresight

                    Will be gutted when we leave too. Didn't we look into extending one of the stands when Bernie was in charge and they found there could be a way to build up and increase it by 7,000. I personally think 25 k for us is perfect.

                    I am sure its been looked into but surely we could just knock it down buy a bit of land around us and redevelop it. Simples really

                      25k.. would be enough for now, but sort of think that would just be buying us time until we have to move. If we're in a position where we can move then think we should.

                        I hear you Nick, just worry if we do move and get relegated or are struggling we could find our self in a 40,000 seated stadium with just over a quarter capacity. I mean we are hardly a established prem team yet and could quite easily yo yo up and down for a few more years or find ourselves stuck in the championship.

                            Looks like the Gang of Four Members has growing support ....The day we move to this new soulless stadium ,with no real pubs , out of W12 ,and surrounded by empty seats will be a very very sad day.
