Any #QPR fans dream of this place at night? DI Garibaldi, the detective in my series of crime novels, does. He also dreams he's the #QPR manager. Maybe someone should give him a call...

'He remembered the line from Larkin - 'man hands on misery to man'. That's what he'd done - handed on the misery of being a QPR season ticket-holder to his son. And he didn't regret it one bit.' DI Garibaldi. Possibly the only #QPR - supporting cop in crime fiction.
