Try following them week in, week out through relegation's, administrations, dodgy chairmen, cr*p football and all sorts. Try following them up and down the country in Division 2, try flying home from the other side of the world for 5 games a year even though they lose every time.

    1 season watching the club cos your knackered, washed up hero signed here and it's "your club"?!!! Wish you fanboys would do one!
    Perhaps its not ny club yet. I dont really know the requirements because it seems that some of you keep saying f off. I didnt say i will stop supporting the club once park leaves. Its pretty obvious that no one wants to stay where they are mistreated. If i bring my family to loftus road and all you say is f off you park fanboy then why would i not give you a punch and never come back?

    What some of you guys do is to judge me beforehand, convict and execute me for something i havent done and said i will not do. Its pretty obvious who needs to change in order not to hurt the club.

    • Football fans in Europe struggle to understand the concept of why people support a player rather than a club. I don't understand it myself. We are bonded to our club not individual players. Players come and go, but the club goes on.

      I remember the first game of last season and seeing a fair few Koreans wandering around LR in their Park Man Utd shirts. I was thinking at the time, if we'd been playing Man Utd that day, those people would probably have been thrown out of the ground for being in home supporter areas. What the hell has Man Utd got to do with QPR v Swansea?

      When Park retires from the game, what do those people do then? Abandon QPR and follow their next hero, or do they continue coming to LR? If they are true supporters of our club then it makes no sense to wear Man Utd shirts to our games.

      I adored Stan Bowles as a kid. He was my hero, but when Stan left I never left with him because I'm a QPR supporter not a Stan Bowles supporter. I always kept an eye on his career elsewhere, but never at the expense of abandoning QPR.

      And that's what many cannot understand. We have a sense of belonging at European clubs. We feel part of something very special: our clubs. We follow our clubs through the good times and the bad. We follow our clubs wherever they play, time and finances permitting. We see the great and not so great come and go from our clubs, but we maintain a lifetime of loyalty to the club.

      JSP has won many things over the years and is probably a nice bloke, but this player support over club support is an alien concept in Europe.
      Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.

      • madara is a plastic and he knows this deep inside. When the two koreans leave the club that's the last time you guys will hear from him. He's only here to defend Park against any chit talkers, while using "I'm a QPR fan too" as a defensive tool.

          Korea aren't interested in their domestic league back home, so all the Koreans interested in football attempt to follow a club in one of Europe's best leagues, and the only way to connect is if a Korean player, plays for that club. Thus, when Park played for united, lot's of Koreans were united "fans." Since that isn't the case, they are now QPR fans. They don't live in england, so they don't have a local club to support. Now you always get the plastics who support Chelsea or Arsenal. Now those with a bit more dignity try to support a championship club like QPR, ONLY because you got Korean players.
