qpr 1-1 sheffield united

17-year-old balanta celebrates his first senior goal

according to list friends and other online reports, there were two main moments of entertainment at loftus road on saturday. the first was angelo balanta finishing a beautifully-worked move to score for the 'r's, and the second was a chant from the rangers' fans to their visitors from sheffield: "we've got more steel than you!" for the uninitiated, sheffield is a steel city (this team's nickname is 'the blades') and our billionaire shareholder made his money in steel. a bit witty.

  2. sorry ms pepper, but your e-mail account is not showing up and while i read with pleasure tim's account of leading your youngest son along the paths of righteousness to loftus road, i still do not have the faintest idea who you may be.

    do feel free to try again - my e-mail address is at the top of the blog in the blue bar.

  5. am delighted. my youngest sister, a bit of a journo herself, has some concept of your hubby. she also guessed correctly who you are. meanwhile, no worries - only murderous feelings i ever have will be for chelski.
