    Since supporting QPR..........

    What is the longest you have gone in the past or present without seeing them play live?

    I am lucky enough to have lived in west London most of my life but even when I was contracted to work in Liverpool I still came down to Home games so about three weeks maximum for me I think since I was about 13 and was allowed to go by myself

      Quiet a few years when I first moved to the Isle of Wight. New wife and a young family stopped me going to games, but now happily divorced, I can go and see my beloved QPR again.
      Opinions are like A******s, everyone has one, but nobody wants to see the other guy's.

          Given my long family history with the club I was lucky to be born into the club. I would say approx 3 weeks since about 1985 which ain't bad seen as I only was born in 1977. I also reckon I have about 80% of all the home programmes (most of which are all signed too by both sets of players along with the occasional bit of my squiggle as a kid or me writing the scores and subs names down) dating back to 1983.

              Grandad worked at the club for well over 40 years, amongst a few other things I'd rather not make known.

                Been going to at least one match (usually two or three) every season since 1996/1997, but living in Sweden obviously makes you miss out on most. So the longest is probably 30 games or so.

                      About 12 years between age 18-30 I suppose.

                      Played football on saturdays and during weeks so didn't really travel to many QPR in 80s....in fact played in 90s and managed ...so used to miss quite a few games as i suppose quite a few people who played football...would have done.

                        1985 through to 2002 (my first trip back from Oz).

                        Nothing since 2002 but hoping to before the end of this season.

                            I played sunday league football today.

                            Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.

                            I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.

                            We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!
