    please read my post more carefully! away allocations have to be a minimum of 3,000. if that figure is more than 10% of the stadium capacity, the 10% rule comes in to play, hence we can only offer a maximum of 2,700 <ok>

    your club obviously didn't believe they could have sold them or your club would have taken up your full allocation! you only brought around a 1,000 last season if i remember correctly so i suppose another 400-500 tickets on top makes sense to a degree to whoever decided.

    I'm sure it was around 1300 last season, which I thought was good for new years day. I was in Ireland and couldn't go, which is why I'm pissed off I'm missing it this year. As you say an extra 500 this year on that would make sense.

    Long day today so will be brief

    Norwich Allocation
    I think the club are looking into this allocation thing, (too late for Norwich game). They keep taking the smaller of the allocations and many Rangers are losing out. I think its because of the money if not all seats are taken (which by the way is stupid). Anyway we sold this Norwich allocation out very quickly (yes it was the smaller one).

    Yeah it's called football First on SKY they show every Premiership game complete. You just need to know when your team is the full game. It could be on first or at 3.00AM, just check the guide.
    wow! that's good.

    And finally
    To the muppet that mocked me about our board turning QPR into a global brand: have a read of this if you can my 6 fingered friend

    http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/stand...cle-24012723-qpr-eye-asia-in-transfer-hunt.do

    Guess my comments were correct after all.

    Barcelona ,AC Milan ,Real Madrid, Inter, Man U, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool....... You can add Spurs and Man City maybe?
    Nobody knows or cares about QPR, you can`t even sell out your own ground or take up away allocations you delusional nob....
    That idiotic story from a London based free newspaper doesn`t make you a GLOBAL BRAND........
    1500 Away fans, for a 2 hr train journey to Norwich says it all.....

    I wouldn't bring up attendances with me you 'Donut' because i been at enough QPR/Norwich games in my time and i remember matches where we sold out your old away end and you had only a half filled ground.
    I have also been at HQ when you lot couldn't even fill the middle section of one tier under our old scoreboard. i reckon about 400-500 at most.
    So before you start acting 'Billy big club' you better come up with the goods.

    Ellers - How many Asian players are currently playing in the PL? and then tell me why you think that number is so low.
    I believe it is because they are simply not good enough and the one's that have enough ability are snapped up by the BIG European clubs - and there still are not many of them.
    Why do you think by signing Asian players it will raise the profile of QPR, when these players are unlikely to be playing PL football on a regular basis? (which is likely as they probably will do well to play in the reserves) If they do not play when the games are shown on TV over here the Asians will lose interest. If they do play and are not good enough, it is a potential disaster for QPR.

    I am not going to say exactly what I think as you, as a QPR fan and it could be happening at your club soon, would totally disagree because you want to believe all the hype and soundbites coming from TF and I can understand that.

    Before you go in depth about how marketing & branding works, I am aware of that and I believe that perhaps TF is a little too confident he can rule the footballing world with a historically small & unfashionable club.

    If this was happening at Norwich I would be very, very worried and if this is what he presented to the Norwich board previously then I believe they were right to turn him away.
    If this all works well then good luck to TF, QPR and all of you lot. If it doesn't work - you were warned (several times)

    I have tried to find your attendances for the same period but have found it hard to find anything prior to 2002/03 season. Where can I find that info?

    In fairness I can't find them for us either

    So, what have we learned?

    QPR fans - Yes, Delia Smith is in fact a Chef. Well done for pointing that out.

    I'd also like to point out that se isn't involved in making ANY of the matchday food at Carrow road. This is the pre-conception that annoys me the most. People that think that a celebrity chef is involved in reheating 20,000 pukka pies has some quite serious mental reasoning issues.

    Norwich Fans - Indeed, peple from London are strange, and an unusually large percentage of them sell fruit and veg. No, no-one understands it as looking at most of them (especially the ladies) doesn't look like their eating much fruit. Is it a vitamin C/Lack of sunlight thing?

    That's a bit rich mate, my old man come's from Norfolk and no one can understand him! As for the ladies, come on fella, I've been out on the town in Norwich many times and there isn't much to look at quite frankly.
