My point was simpler than that. Beale and, as an example, Ince may have big houses and megabucks but do you honestly think they don’t grit their teeth and think ‘bastards’ when they get called out by the peasants? Same as Terry and Fat Frank when we’ve slaughtered them. Terry, for all his millions, was apoplectic at Villa with us so close to the pitch. As I said, football culture. Childish, inappropriate - call it anything you like but it’s little victories along the way….and it’s fun. John Terry doesn't and didn't give two hoots about us when we played at Villa Park. That's one of those myths like Andy Sinton was crying because of the fans when he left the pitch in the cup tie against Wednesday in 93/94 which people hope is true but isn't. Like the Chelsea 1-0 win in 2011 which the myth says their entire team was terrified amd were frightened to even be on the pitch but the reality - confirmed by EVERY newspaper report the following day - is that we were outplayed by 9 men and were lucky to win.... Talking about Lampard, here's an extract from the Guardian update thread to that 2011 match: '23 min: Frank Lampard trots over to take a corner from the right and engages in some "banter" with some lively QPR fans down that end. That looked pleasant, though Lampard mostly just laughed at their taunts' As I say, myths that we cling on to because we haven't had successes we should have.

Jesus…..Terry came right to the perimeter fence before thinking twice about confronting fans. I was 10 yards away. It happened. He was livid. As for Frank engaging in banter he’d just been asked by a few hundred what it was like to be shagging a horse? He was livid - and that one was a bit too far. Terry’s Mum was fair game but Christine didn’t deserve that (😁)Quoting the Grauniad?

So, and correct me if I'm wrong, you're saying that John Terry who had played for an away team in Turkey, in Auld Enemy matches and countless trips to hostile places in Easten Europe shat it when most when less than 2,000 QPR fans sang naughty words to him? As for quoting the Guardian, which paper would you like me to quote to show that the myth of 2011 is complete bollocks? They all agree Chelsea dominated us with 9 men and should have won.

Not sure who brought up the myth of 2011 but let’s leave it that you’re right about everything. I can’t be arsed.

I'm far from right about everything, ask my wife, but if we held opinions we didn't believe are true it would be beyond odd: I'm going to vote for x party in the 2024 general election because I think they'd do the shitiest job possible. As for who mentioned 2011, although you didn't mention the year you did refer to Lampard being affected by abuse against him which is the perfect place to remind our fans that we have not just slightly mythologised the win against Chelsea in 2011, but taken our collective memory of that day to a whole new level of bollocks which doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.

players absolutely do get affected by the atmosphere though. you see it every game, when the crowd is on the players backs their heads start to drop and when we start cheering them they're more teed up for it. look at huddersfield in the prem as a prime example, the fans played a massive part in keeping them up as their stadium was rocking every game.
i've seen us get under opposition players skin a few times too. few years back we were playing against brentford and kept ripping sergi canos for his haircut. guy was livid and when he was eventually subbed off he was giving the crowd the finger. another time we were playing rotherham (i think) and one of their CBs had switched off and was then successfully closed down from behind. everytime he had the ball afterwards we were doing the "ohhhhhOOOOHHHHHH" thing and at one point he was so bothered by it that he actually kicked the ball out despite no one being near him lol.

That's all true but far removed from suggesting that what is - if we're being completely honest with ourselves- one of the most boring set of supporters are capable of generating the intimidating atmosphere some still believed we generated against Chelsea in 2011. Not a single report said anything about their players being intimidated to the extent they were frightened of being on the pitch or that we deserved to win and yet thats what most QPR fans believe... If the match against Sunderland was at home by the way Beale would be intimidated as he's never experienced that before to the extent he would have, but to suggest England internationals who have experienced playing in Turkey and Eastern Europe where, on occasions, they had armed protection were intimidated by QPR fans singing at them is ludicrous.

I saw that exchange with Lampard and I'm telling you now, there was no banter, there was no laughing and it wasn't pleasant. It was near R block and a kid had jammed what looked like a credit card into Juan Mata's hand. He was taking the free kick and decided against it after that, which is why Lampard came to take it. Don't believe everything you read in the paper.

If it was one paper you'd have a point but every paper? Sorry, there'd be at least one to break rank and none agree with the version created by QPR fans which first led to the myth and now forms part of the gospel. The atmosphere that day may have been special for QPR fans who hadn't seen a competitive match against Chelsea for 15 years, but outside our fanbase not a single witness saw things the same way and all agreed that with just 9 men they should have won which shows you how intimidated they think their players were...

I was literally there, R block, row F, right in front of the incident as it unfolded. But sure, what I saw with my own eyes is wrong and the papers are right 👍 I'm not saying Lampard was intimidated, I'm saying he wasn't just engaging in banter.

doesn't matter how professional you are. there's gunna be days were fans get under a players skin, maybe the player is having a rough week or maybe the fans say something a bit below the belt etc. it can and does happen and i've seen us get under the skin of many players over the years.

I’ll look that up. The kid is asking some good questions.
Can’t remember if I mentioned it previously, but I saw that Neil Banfield standing outside on South Africa Road before a game about a month ago.
Wondered what he was doing down here.
