DRAFT STATEMENT TO THE CLUB
Dear Chairman,
We are disturbed at the new pricing structure at Queens Park Rangers, which hits loyal fans very hard in the pocket.
We are also dismayed that Mr Bhatia has resigned from our club, citing one of the reasons as the hike in season ticket prices. We thank Mr Bhatia and the Mittal family for their imput into our Club. We demand that the board withdraw the current pricing structure and hold talks with the QPR LSA, THE OFC and other fans' groups. A possible venue would be the Blue and White bar.
We will have to find an extra 40% for three less matches and will have to find this large sum of money by the 30th June.
There is no reward for loyal fans who have watched the club home and away, including football in the third tier of English football. A discount could and should have been given to fans who have been season ticket holders for over two seasons or who have over 100 loyalty points.
Yes we will be playing 'big teams', but our loyal fans would watch QPR, whether we are playing Arsenal or Accrington Stanley. To reward the 8,000 loyal fans who have watched the R's through thick and thin would have been a good gesture of goodwill.
There has been no discussions with the various fans' groups about pricing, although it was leaked to the local press.
Our prices are not even competitive, Fulham who finished 8th in the Premier League have a season ticket price range of £379 (early bird tickets were £323, Why no early bird reward at QPR?) to £939. Our price range is £549 to £999
If Fulham can reward their long term fans why cant we?
We have called a meeting in the Barley Mow Public House 82 Duke Street W1K 6JG near Bond Street tube for 3p.m on Sunday. It would be well received if you or a club official attend this meeting to explain this price increase.
All the best,
John Reid
