where are our fans??????

[Factamondo]

sorry but another pitiful attendance for a table topping side.....funny how the box office claimed less than a 1000 home tickets available on friday?????..are we telling porkies????

[80sCasual]

As always, think there's a tax fiddle going on (I'll say allegedly, wouldn't want to be sued) the BO always seem to give out a lower attendance.
Remember Millwall is on Tues, quite a few are going who didn't attend yesterday. So expect a full house.

The attendances aren't really that wrong ifyou think about it, school end holds approx 2,700 so a bad away following and that affects it, also available tickets plus ST holders who don't turn up (shown as not available anyway) then you have quite a reduction from the ground capacity.
Who knows?

[silvercue]

so bored of he whole "tax fiddle" story. It's nonsense.

[scuberry]

The "tax fiddle" story is certainly not nonsense (allegedly) it has gone on,to what extent is difficult to say,but 80's casual is spot on with away attendances,s/t etc !!

I think there was a lot more than the alleged 13,990 as many were held up in traffic on the A40 and were still streaming in up to half an hour after KO and the ground looked a lot fuller than it did at 3pm.How this affects the figures through the turnstiles I do not know.

[conners]

The attendance was 25% up on the equivalent fixture last year so quite clear that the message is getting though. I expect regular attendances in excess of 16000ver the coming months.

[ollyhoops]

I thought there was quite a lot there yesterday, there was however a bad delay on the A40, but looking back it seemed a decent crowd, I thought it was more than 13,000.

Like some say, I guess it is possibly a tax fiddle.

There was 10 short pf 14,000, so your perception of their being more than 13000 is correct.

Can we cut the crap about tax fiddles. The capacity of the stadium is about 18000, quite clearly 1500-2000 seats in the away end and I am sure other spaces around the ground make up the rest. All we need is a journalist to look at this board and we will have tax inspectors on our doorstep.

The facts are that the crowds are going up and will continue to go up if we stay at the top of the league.

[acricketer]

Watching Soccer Saturday, it looked as if the ground was empty. There wasn't a fan visible behind Salako when he did an update, just swathes of empty seats.

[W6hoops]

waiting to buy half season tickets?!

[Magic]

Guys, it was more than 13,000 it was ten short of 14,000

[brightonr]

Mr Mittal needs to report lower attendances at LR to reduce his tax burden ?

For a business that is running at a loss, I would think that is pretty difficult to take at all seriously.

Whether you like or not, agree or disagree to some QPR lost its identity/soul and some fans felt a preverbial kick in the balls.

To many and the going ons including the non stop propaganda machine rolling out half truths and lies (only 1000 tickets left etc) could be construed as insulting the intelegence of fans.

QPR is a marriage/love affair with a teams fortunes usually working in cycles.

This is not about how the team is doing now or talking about the past. Some peoples love affair with this club took a lot of testing and its a pity the club didnt address it in inmo only on the surface and not in any depth.

And to all those who know, you know where im coming from and to those who dont are the fans that dont care if the cast of eastenders play in the hoops every week as long as the result is a win, well thats fine too.

[vanhoop]

most people can only afford to do one of the two games,tuesday night will be different

[PedalR]

The attendance was 14K. I reckon the home areas of LR hold around 15K so saying there were 1K left seems about right to me? I suspect that there were a lot of "singles" and "obstructed views" amongst that 1K too.... basically no use to any families or groups going. I really wish we'd just permanently give lower School End over to Rs fans to free up attractive seats and make it generally easier for Rs fans to get seats in 2s, 3s 4s etc.
