nutty nigel 7,533 Posted August 9, 2017 Now Diane, you may mock the old boys in the main/city stand. But the hooligan element in there once took the club to the brink of ground closure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diane 500 Posted August 9, 2017 I ain''t mocking anyone Nutty, I''m just having a laugh with the others, the first time my Dad took me I sat in the main stand. He had a st in there all his life, not sure if he threw cushions on the pitch though or whether they had stewards in those days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,533 Posted August 10, 2017 I doubt if many of the cushion throwers are alive now. They werent soft fluffy cushions. They were square pastic ones. Like square frisbies. And they didn''t just chuck them on the pitch, they slung ''em at Geoffrey Watling too. But it was so bad one game, Charlton I seem to remember, that the FA threatened us with ground closure. Disgraceful behaviour...☺ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,555 Posted August 10, 2017 My grandad was a QPR director in the 50s and was once ejected from a ground-don''t know which one-for throwing monkey nuts onto the pitch in disgust! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you''ve sussed them VW, as noticed for one of the goals (wasn''t watching the stewards for all of them) that one of this magnificent pairing had the usual orange high Vis jacket on Saturday.Maybe one of jake/Elwood have gone solo!!
