QPR get away with it.

What a surprise.

How come they moved the final round of Championship fixtures from Sunday to Saturday?

'For TV'.


It was announced about eight weeks ago I think.

So we ended with a double against the league champions, and both victories well deserved.


As for QPR, a small club with small time, passive fans (how utterly awful were they today?). It goes to prove what money, and some pals at the FA can do.


We won't miss them (though I guess we need to find six points from somewhere next year), especially as even if Huddersfield win the play offs they will be replaced by a bigger club with proper fans.

Makes a change for matches to be swapped to the day and time that football really should be played!


At least it will be mild!

And Swansea robbed of auto promotion by little QPR's cheating too. At least they finished above their little neighbours Cardiff I suppose. Proof that playing football the right way does get rewarded.

Personally, I think it's a plot against the Welsh.

Slightly more serious, but I did say to Tricky there's no way the FA would allow a Welsh thing to get promotion through the back door, although not too many would begrudge Swansea. Good fans, attractive football.

To be entirely fair although both Norwich's and QPR's fans are the epitome of the modern, happy clappy, cheer stix seals that the powers that be so desperately want to see in our grounds they played the best football consistently and deserved their promotion.


How ironic is that in four games against them we won two, drew two. That's my regret. We had the potential to beat anyone but a defence which would be improved by an Under 9 coach.

LOL!


Nice win to see you out. A worse season than you'd hoped, but a better season than it might have been.


Look forward to our encounters next season. The beer has nothing to do with it at all. Oh no

Should there be more fans like this?

There is a middle ground you know.

I remember a QPR fan complaining afterwards that it was too noisy

We've lost three northern teams from the Championship and gained southern seaside crud..


At least we keep Bristol City, one of the true footballing clubs in this league in terms of passion and feeling. Best away day by far last season



Likewise. Had a cracking day out up there. Two more to look forward to next season. Would be nice if one of them was in August and coincided with hot weather. Waterfront bars ftw

What a fantastic season ! I thought I'd just pop in to see how you guys are are getting on in the FLThread 😂 Only missed one game this season at home and only saw one defeat against Leeds last week , which deserved the win and should of made the playoffs ! Well we're now back in the big time after 15 stressful years and hopefully won't go to Watford again as there ground is falling down😄 Haft to admit I was pooing myself over the PTs deduction rumours but so glad when it was announced NO POiNTS ! Just before kick off How nice of the FA clowns .now looking forward to the ST prices 😨 and to be playing Chelsea In are little stadium 🤣 🤣

I was hoping you meant Danny Coles 


New manager for Rovers, it would seem, will either be Danny Wilson or Paul Buckle of Torquay odds of 4-1 for DW and 1-2 for PB would take either of these but would question PB's loyalty (if he is in talks) with TQ in play offs.
