That fella on the OSC coaches

[Kirill]

Very shy, has had a lot of personal and health problems, which obviously I won't go into because that's private.
Gets a lot of ribbing, some of which goes too far, and I suspect his lack of social skills is beyond his control.He does appreciates people saying hello, even if he doesn't show it very well.
That's all I'm prepared to say.

Actually I think Swanleyhoop has said it very well and this might/should be the end of this discussion, maybe best if we respected our fellow-fan's privacy and moved on

Well I have never seen anyone "rib" him and would speak out if I ever saw it and this thread has not been unkind to him in the slightest so not sure why it should end

As I say he is a fellow QPR fan and because I recognise him at away games I make a point of saying hello as he is usually alone

No malice intended of any kind towards him at all and it was just a bit of curiosity that made me start the thread

I remember him up at Grimsby a few years ago, when we played them twice in three weeks i think it was, once in the league and once in the cup, when it went off by the "leaking boot" pub. Before the game Rangers were warming up and a player I cant think who hit a shot and missed the goal and hit this Mark fella straight in the face, I thought he was dead !!!!!, the player came over to see if he was alright, I think his glasses were knocked off but he was fine, anyone else remember that.

[middlesexr]

I thought it was before the game during the warm up, but I could be wrong. It was fu%king cold though, I remember that !

[kingsleyloftus]

no it was before the game mate. think forbes or langley done it?

[middlesexr]

Bloody hell that was a few years ago, longer than i thought. I think we beat them in the league and then lost the cup game a few weeks later. What year would that have been then ?

Fair play swanley. Good of you to explain all that.

Don't judge a book by its cover is the moral of the story on this one I'd say.

But as others have mentioned no one has been horrible about the chap.

[LoftusRoadLad]

Lets all look after him after all he is one of us...and dare i say a propa Ranger.

Not on here, no, I'm glad to see.
But certainly has had the mick taken out of him on away trips quite a lot.

btw, I was sitting next to him, talking to him when he gt his specs knocked off -- not quite Grimsby, but close, it was our first trip to Scunthorpe when they were promo'ed, 4 or 5(?) years ago.
Unless it's happened to him twice, poor Mark.
