    Why do clubs have "bogey" grounds? I just don't understand it. Before today, we had lost the last 10 at Loftus Road(plus the draws), so the way we churn through players and managers, thats 10 different line ups have lost to a team that have more often that not been average(or worst). What causes it?

    Mindset probably- They all claim that it doesn’t bother or affect them, but history says it does.

    It says everything that even during the club's most amazing, historic & unforgettable season, we somehow managed to lose there twice, in the space of a couple of weeks.

    No, we definitely didn't lose there three times!! Two defeats - one league, one cup.
