QPR Home Or Cardiff Home & Away

[baggieal]

For f uck sake!!! QPR at home which is a cup final to gain promotion or anything less it would most likely be a very good in form Cardiff side over two legs.

It’s obvious which will be the easiest!! I certainly would not like to be the team to play Cardiff and could see them even beating Brentford over two legs - if we do it!!!

Come on Bilic rally the troops for this huge huge cup final!

Anyone remember "Space Patrol" from the 1950's ?...a forerunner to Thunderbirds etc.( check out Youtube )
The crew on their space craft used to enter their sleeping pods,and be "drugged" to sleep for the duration of the space voyage,and then wake up at a pre-determined time.
I could do with that,now,until 10 pm on Wednesday

I know exactly how you feel greyhound. How I'm going to sit through the game I just don't know. It seems very simple though. All that we've got to do is win one football match. Simples.

I'd be happier if we had a couple of Meerkats playing up front

Since the latter part of the Pulis days something mentally has gone wrong with me.

It always seemed like under him that one goal was going to be our lot so I found myself being very intense in concentration during games watching us defend which we usually did really well until those final few weeks.

BUT........a goal for the opposition and my head would go and I could never see a way back.

It destroyed my love for the game and I found myself unable to enjoy watching us live or on TV........it had all just got too important and was affecting my daily mood and I felt my well-being as well.

I stopped watching us on TV the day that Koumas and Lloyd Dyer set up that late winner away at Sunderland many years ago........pressure was so intense I went for a long walk.

I stayed at work the other evening so that I could actually avoid the match which I knew my son would be watching live.

Today I went for a drive once I knew Stoke were winning because I wanted to take my mind off it until it was over.

I think it comes down to what Adrian Chiles describes a few years ago about it being the hope that kills you as an Albion fan.

I can take the relegations and the failed promotions but I can’t live with the individual pieces of hurt along the journey.

A defence mechanism I guess,I avoid the constant knowing for the 90+ minutes.

It’s sad actually and I wish there was something I could do to get over this.

On Wednesday I will go for a drive and then just live with the final result.

If anyone has suggestions as to how I sort out this mental issue I’m all ears?

You are not alone in feeling the way you do, Mick, I couldn’t watch any of the Fulham game and hardly any of the Huddersfield one! Today, we had a family day out at the park, my sone with phone in hand telling me every two or three minutes that it was still 1-0; I told him that I didn’t want to hear any more until it was all over.

Maybe stop being the worst attention seeker these boards have ever seen?


If that doesn't work...nah, that's basically it.

Hope this helps.
