Official minutes from the club meeting their mouthpiece* are on the offy

[paulmason]

All these fans group meetings at W12 are a complete and utter waste of time and I cant help but feel sorry for the people who run or attend the meetings hoping to change things, as they seem to ask about this and ask about that but you get nothing.

Maybe, but unless we try, we'll never get anywhere. Having the comittee elected would be a starting point in making sure that the club interact with the fans and hear their views. (even if they ignore them)

Again having an elected committee would be pointless, as when they have their internal discussions about introducing or changing something, they would know the fans views, because they would assess the impact of the changes and on the basis they introduce or change whatever anyway, they are saying f-c-u-k them.

A pointless wast of time and again, I feel sorry for the people who put so much of their time into these efforts.

Have to agree on that fella.

[SussexR]

Have to agree on that fella.

Well I try to be a bit more positive about peoples intentions. I may be wrong sometimes but more often than not the people who take part in such groups do so because they believe in what they are doing.

Thats my view anyway.

[Bigears]

LOL, i work in an indusrty were our business we have a similar loyal customer base and this all the replys I could have written as answers before the meeting.

As there are no actual discussion points or deabte dialog, there are no actual points that commits to anything that you can look to see if the club is doing anything.

This is a typical standard publication, the people doing it may have all good intentions but i can tell you that they are restricted in what they can say, infact i would say the club reviewed the answers and modified to waht they wanted.

But this was done by the OSC so did anyone expect anything different

[Scarlet pimple]

Most of the answers from the club are not even answers, just the same lame excuse to wack up prices.


 The club pointed out that the prices reflected the fact that the fans would be
watching a higher class of football at Loftus Road next season and that the prices
remain competitive with other London based clubs. They also stated that the ticket
prices were a board decision, as has always been the case.


1
Other london clubs have squads good enough to qualify and play in europe.
Do we, I'am sure no matter who we sign we are not going to match other london teams squads, and there for quality will be lower at qpr.


2

Did we not know that then.


I'm totally lost with the answers those idiots from the club have given.

thye board decision did make me laugh i mean WHO THE F**K ELSE DECIDES THEM???

I mean..what else did we expect

"Despite previous years, where Mr Falafel from Shepherds Bush Market has decided what the prices would be, this year the owners decided"

OR

"In previous years we have always doubled, plus added £60, then minused the price of the Sun newspaper, then added a ton from the season ticket prices of Hayes & Yeading FCs, HOWEVER, this year we decided to let the board decide"

Seriously, get about 6 full time staff and 4 part timers out of Loftus Road (who are amazing) and fire the shower of twunts at the club.

Paladini and the Faurlin contract??? With these kind of amateurs I can see mucho embarrassment on a bigger scale whilst in the prem at some point

am afraid that those minutes look like they were written by the club rather than someone on behalf of the OSC

I am not sure what people are really expecting the folk at the OSC to do, they are the official supporters club and are dependant on the club for pretty much everything including publishing information.

As others have stated the people within the OSC do good work in terms of fundraising and other community related work, they are not however an independant entity and i think they have been perhaps manipulated by the club

I would like to hear from the chair and other committee members about their own thoughts about the current situation and if they want to be the liason point between independant groups like the LSA and the QPR1st. Their own words mind not those of the club on their behalf.

[Nodge70]

If I were a betting man, I'd wager a decent amount that these answers were not verbally communicated at any meeting. They sound like fully thought out written responses to written questions.

Think you know I highly respect your opinion Peter and well, that's one of the best posts on the subject. Agree on ALL of it

[W12_Ranger]

Who the **** are these people who represented the OSC then because I've never heard of them?

I've chaired 2 meetings at work today and recorded twice as many minutes for both as the OSC minutes. A bunch of window lickers no doubt who enjoy having their noses in the trough. These are not even proper minutes I want to know who said what and was the club push to expand on answers.

What a ****ing disgrace, these individuals representing the OSC are cleary out of their depth.

they do to me too....

[stanistheman]

what was the point of the meeting total waste of time, no real answer just pure crap everything being blamed on the fa hearing what a lame excuse keep your money on your pockets folks.

I agree.
Other clubs (including QPR) have previously announced prices in March (irrispective of which division they would be playing in. QPR could have done the same this time around.

the fans would watching a higher class of football at Loftus Road next season and that the prices season reflect that. Th opposition will be of a higher class, but It so far looks as if QPR's team will be near enough the same. So we are being asked to pay extra to watch teams beat QPR?

As for the facilities, yes the constraints of Loftus Road don't allow for more comfortm so don't charge us the same or competitive prices as those whose facilities are better.

The club Board is full of crap!

disagree we have got worse as a team, as one of best players has not yet been signed....so actually will be a lower standard of football from the team I want to watch....
