5 Live In ShortAvailable for over a year
QPR boss Chris Ramsey says he tends to watch Eastenders or a film before a game to help deal with pre-match nerves. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 like that hour and a half before games. It drags so I tend to watch a film. Once you鈥檝e done your team talk and named the team what can you do? I鈥檓 an Eastenders fan, but I鈥檒l watch anything to take my mind off the game. Ramsey also says he still helps out with his son's Sunday league team, despite being in charge of a Premier League side. 鈥淵ou have to live a normal life. If we have a game on a Sunday afternoon, I鈥檒l go and run the line in my son鈥檚 team if it鈥檚 my turn. I鈥檓 a parent. I鈥檒l go and pick him up as well. 鈥淭his week I won鈥檛 have to do it as we kick off early (vs Chelsea). 鈥淚鈥檓 a very good linesman by the way!"
