I have been having a good old think about the current situation and how we as supporters really need to get our point across to the owners regarding the new pricing structure and especially the walk up prices which will in my opinion stop fans from returning to watch our club
1, I am 99% sure that all season ticket holders and Members are automatically members of the Official Supporters Club which was of course set up many years ago with the best intentions for us fans but to put it mildly has hardly set the world alight on our behalf over the last few years and I`m sure the LSA and QPR1st have fought much harder for us on current and previous issues we have had with the club
I would have thought that within the OSC Constitution there would be if enough of demanded it the mechanism for us as members to call an Emergency General Meeting which would allow us to have a vote of no confidence in the board and if successful then publish this to the media etc
The vote would of course allow anyone who has a membership or season ticket wherever they live in the world and regardless of how many games they are able to attend to show what we think
Bernie and Flavio may not take any notice but remember the supporters club is in effect managed by the club but this would show they do have some independence and are doing what they were originally set up for and that is to serve the fans best interests
2, some might suggest a boycott all merchandise sales both in the club shop and elsewhere and also all the food and beer outlets inside the ground as this is where the club make make profits
The last thing the club would want when the worlds media is watching is empty tills around the ground and even perhaps friendly pickets asking fans to be united by not buying any products until the board back down at least a little bit and show some concessions
I understand there could be potential legal ramifications on this idea so I will leave that to the individual to decide what to do and am not encouraging others to do so though I will be myself apart from the odd halftime beer
I am sure both ideas will be mocked by some on here but what other ideas can we implement rather then sitting on our hands and letting them **** all over us?
