A nice bit of South London
Just got in from Loftus Road. Quietest home fans i have heard in a long time, especially with 16,000 of them in an enclosed ground.

As it says elsewhere, we totally outsung them, but not difficult

Ps. Just been on their fan sites . They seem to be impressed with the size of our support and the noise. They also thought it was a poor games that the midfields dominated. Fair comment ..... But Joey Barton MOM !!!

I thought we were quite quiet tonight. Not silent, but we've been more robust.

It's hard as home fans to create noise. I think we create some noise at the Amex, but I bet a decent visiting contingent would say we were silent if they were singing.

They seemed a good humoured bunch from where I was. Bit of predictable chanting which let them down.

I think they're probably nervous. They know they are favorites so the pressure is on.

You can hardly hear the away fans from the north stand at the Amex.

I heard a couple of chants from QPR tonight, Come on u Rsss & E I EI O up the football league we go. There one one rendition of We are top of the league, but that was it all evening.

My voice is ****ed. From tonight many people who try to sing just can't shout loud enough to get songs going. If you are going to shout go balls deep, or not at all.

I think tonight was the only game I've been to when the home fans haven't put pressure on a referee to make a decision, and yet he still made shit decisions. How was that push on Buckley at the end not given?

Agree, though Buckley goes down ever so easily.

You can't hear the home fans in the Amex from the SE either.....its dead in that corner. When you hear the away fans complaining about the lack of atmosphere, its down to acoustics as much as the West stand.

When you go on away trips your surrounded by your own fans therefore to hear the opposition is very hard....so you actually think you outsung them.....I sit near the halkfway line at the Amex...nearer the South stand....I can hear the South stand and the North...what I cannot hear is the Upper West as the acoustics make it sail over the top...but I'm sure they are singing well...

I thought QPR were virtually silent in the first half, but got going in the 2nd. BHA gave their best shot in the first half, but then tailed off.

The above statement is true for both fans and the teams
