Description

No Andy this week, so your host Ant, Dun and, I can't believe I am saying this, Godfather of QPR NYC Tom Holden joins us from Australia.

Before our usual nonsense we have an extremely important and sobering message about why we have changed our logo to Purple. Our friend and Brother Jimmy Green's daughter Lily, who is only 23 is facing a battle against stage 4 pancreatic cancer. To support QPR NYC are releasing a special Purple edition of our Iconic t-shirt. All monies raised from shirt sales go to Lily's fund, we also point you in the direction of her fund to support medical expenses.

November 1st will be Purple for Lily day when we take on Ipswich Town. and our logos will stay purple until the end of November - which is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness month

Please support in anyway you can

The rest of this seems trivial, but if you stick around, we talk...

We talk the Sheffield Wednesday game and Bilbo Ballbaggins and preview the Oxford and Bristol City games, and evaluate previous kits in Ant's Kit Korner

There was a busy Sunday in New Yorking, and Dun watched it all unfold in a bar on about 15 different screens

Jacob keeps delivering the quality with the stanzas

In a week where lovely stuff is at a premium, we bring it back. And in tough times, the lovely really shines. Thank you to all of our family at the Football Factory for supporting Lily and the Green family.

The New York supporters group family is so so special. Tom, you created a great thing, which introduced us to greater things.

Love , friendship and solidarity with a side order of Football

Normally this is the bit where I would ask you to rate and review. Not this week...Donate to Lily's fund, Buy the T-shirt, Give your close friends and loved ones a hug. Please.


See you at The Factory for Bristol City on Saturday 10am October 4th.
