Shame on you !
The German football model is praised throughout the world as the fans own at least 50+1 of the club, those clubs have little debt, less tv money to work with then us, cheap tickets, good attendances but no when it comes to us mortals talking about our club here we are disregarded as "business men" know what they are doing. Same business men that have run nearly all premiership clubs into huge debts meaning if they get relegated are likely to go out of business.

Do you think the board have plucked this 40k figure out of thin air without doing some research on the subject? Now that would be extremely worrying. Perhaps the board know something we don't.
I find it hard to believe the board hasn't considered how they're going to fill the new ground. Surely they've done their homework on this very important matter.
This isn't a short term plan, this is about the next 25-50 years and beyond.
It certainly hasn't been based on any QPR historical attendances or database.
The 40k figure has no relevance to QPR what so ever
Perhaps the board do know something we don't ?
Perhaps Tony Fernandes is going to bend over and Mittal is going to pull 25000 new QPR supporters out of his ********!

W12 you are a typical blinkered fan, if we stayed at Loftus road how long do you think these businessmen ,that you seem to disregard, will carry on wasting money on our club without any opportunity for a return. If we went in your direction they would pack up and move off and we would be back staring administration in the face.

Originally posted by W12_Ranger View PostBased on that logic Charlton should look to expand to 80000 due to attendances they had in the 20's
Did you expect Brighton to almost treble their attendances when they moved?
What about Southampton's attendances now compared to when at the The Dell?
What makes you so convinced of the notion that it's impossible for a football club to increase and grow its fanbase? It's happened to clubs in the past and it'll happen in the future.
Isn't the root of your concerns really more about your fear of change (which I agree is understandable)?

I'm convinced W12 doesn't understand our history.
Like, 'rattling around' in a half-empty LR during the noughties. Or the bucket collections. Or the administration. Or the proposed merger. Or the £10m loan secured on LR that nearly killed us. Or that none of this happened on TF's watch.
The club's history proves that staying at LR playing in the championship or lower is a flawed business model.Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.
