Disgusting comment. Mods please ban this scumbag! If we banned sh** jokes we wouldn't have anyone left on here. Disgusting is a matter of opinion. Mental health is a very serious subject, of course, but that doesn't mean you can't make jokes about it. If you thought the joke was in poor taste, then fair enough. But we can't ban people for their taste in jokes. You consider that a joke ? And you're a Mod ffs.

Indeed he did. I and others I know have suffered with depression. It was a joke of poor taste, that is all. its not "a joke in poor taste thats all" you f**king disgrace. Wind your neck in. I've already apologised, and the mods and other posters have moved on. Suggest you do the same.

Yeah it worked for me but I didn't watch it. Usually I watch at home on the TV, but last night I was out so turned it on every 15 minuets to check the score. I screen shotted it on mobile at the time and it's a black screen. I guess they have something on there that stops you doing it. Either way, definitely was working. Not sure if other people from abroad could also watch it? Dr Gas Qatar Gas ? I’m in the UK until today so it didn’t even cross my mind to try and watch it! I was under the impression League Cup games were not on iFollow? I’ve just watched the highlights on iFollow this morning though. I always record the goals of games I watch & send them to my dad if he's not at the game (and sometimes on here too). I just found this in WhatsApp of QPR last year & just uploaded it now onto Vimeo:

Or something else? Also what has mod status to do with the perception of humour? Do you think that people change their sense of humour when they become mods? Or something else?

Behave , don’t talk to people like that from behind the safety of your iPhone. He’s apologised numerous times , stop being so dramatic for the sake of click bait and reaction.

We played well against a poor Cheltenham last night
Tyler Smith looks the business and once him and Clarke Harris settled in after 15-20mins, Cheltenham could not handle them, especially Smith
Back 4 looked good, Tom Davies distribution and ability to go forward is better than Lockyer and Alfie Kilgour impressed.
Midfield still not impressing, although Ollie had a good game and Bennett impressed in places.
Sercombe had a better game, still looks a tad rusty.

Can't read much into the performance against a L2 side that made 4 or 5 changes from their first choice 11.
However, you can only beat the team you're playing at we did that fairly comfortably.
They got in down the sides a couple of times but the defence played well for the most part without being overly stretched.
Midfield looked better than Saturday but how much that was down to us improving and how much was due to being up against a far weaker team I'm not sure.
The biggest plus point was the front 2. JCH still looked rusty at times but helped set up the first goal and scored the 3rd. Seems to already have a good understanding with Smith who looked very promising and I think this will be our first choice front 2 this season.

To be fair to Marcus Trescothick - he only just gets in the top three pupils to emerge from Sir Bernard Lovell school - Holloway, Me & then him! One of England's greats, and note that Moeen Ali is taking a break from cricket to "re-charge". utg.

I thought Alfie Kilgour booked his place in the first team last night. Exceptionally strong in the air and very good distribution. His Cryuff turn to get out of trouble was also impressive. Accepting we'll play better opposition, I would go with Kilgour and Davies as our centre back pairing. Two goals and a very unselfish assist from Tyler Smith - a very positive performance. Kyle Bennett was also a stand out and I thought Liam Sercombe was much better last night. Overall a massively promising performance. Alfie did play well but it's a bit soon to suggest he should replace Tony Craig. Let's remember that the opposition were extremely poor and that Big Tone has been the model of consistency for the best part of two seasons here. Encouraging performance all round though

Encouraging performance all round though Yeah, he also made a howler when trying to shepherd a ball out for a goal kick and he got robbed by their striker. Not something you'd want to see at 0-0 in a league match.

With so many rave reviews for Kilgour from last night, surely this squad is crying out to play 352?
Kilgour-Davies-Craig across the back, two wingbacks, Ogogo & OC in the middle, Bennett/Sercombe CAM behind JCH + 1.

In theory it sounds great but for some reason we never seem to work well with any formation other that 442, 451, 433 (even that's risky for us)

A special mention to BCFC11, who says he isn't bothered but goes on to quote 5 different quotes on this thread and 2 massive paragraphs letting us know how he couldn't give a f**k they lost 😂 the gift that keeps in giving. It amazes me whenever I go over on there. They have an 1100 page thread about us, it is nearly always at the top, and they seem to know everything that is going on with us or regularly posting stuff from here. Considering how "insignificant" we are to them, it really is quite baffling. The thing I find equally baffling is that many Rovers fans seem to constantly go on there then come back on here and laugh about them being obsessed with us.

its not "a joke in poor taste thats all" you f**king disgrace. Wind your neck in. I've already apologised, and the mods and other posters have moved on. Suggest you do the same. Speaking from the position of surviving 2 suicide attempts (3rd time lucky, eh?), and years of anxiety and depression, the default statement which my Psychologist used to say when I played down my illness was, "Would you say that if you had cancer? Mental health is also a fatal disease for many, so don't be-little it." I guess you could apply the same measurement to Gastafari's "joke" - would he have said it about cancer - I doubt it. However, I hope that he's lucky enough not to have suffered all the sh*t that goes with mental health, and his statement came from the stance of not having personal knowledge. There was obviously no malice in it, and he's apologised, that's good enough for me. Always a good poster on here as far as I can remember, one ill judged comment is not worthy of being pilloried. I rely on the Forum to give me a laugh - and it usually delivers - thank you all! Now, bring on the Brighton - we're on our way to Wembley!

Kilgour-Davies-Craig across the back, two wingbacks, Ogogo & OC in the middle, Bennett/Sercombe CAM behind JCH + 1. At home definitely. With Little and THD to come back it would provide us with plenty of quality Away from home I think we will see more of a 4-4-2 but nice to have options! If JCH and Smith form a partnership we might be surprised this season! Maybe it’s good our expectations are so low! UTG

Seems to best suit the players we have at the moment and a wing back role would certainly suit Leahy a lot more on the left. Plus Nichols could be good in the CAM role behind JCH and Smith/Adeboyejo.

GC doesnt play attacking formations though, he goes defensively minded which is why he goes Narrow 433, which can pin you in your own half, just like Wycombe did to us on saturday.
For me the biggest difference about last night was having JCH to actually get onto the long balls, Bennett causing a nuisacnce and giving the strikers some supply and having Smith who can actually finish a few chances.
Defensively I thought Davies and Kilgour looked more secure too, we didnt sit as deep as we usually do with Craig in the team.
