I know, it's **** innit? Who'd have thought we'd have to eat this much on the back of winning the NPC and with mega rich owners willing to spend? You couldn't make it up could you?
Seen about 4 relegations in my time, or is it 5? I know there's far worse in life but most football fans know it's still a massive gut wrenching kick in the trollox when it happens to your team. Lasts ALL friggin' summer too.
Still, life goes on I s'pose. Still got London derbies to look forward to: Millwall, Charlton, BRENTFORD maybe!

But would we get near capacity crowds in our home games against Wimbledon, Southend & Barnet?
Mate, there is some decent footy being played in that league...esp when you look at those playing it..worth a watch...!
Slighty off topic, but a few weeks back on 606 phone in, there was an away fan having a dig about your ground.....any guess on what it was? your fans? atmosphere?...foood? service??
No.
"lack of washing facilities in the toilets" gave me a good laugh! he was moaning that after taking a slash, he couldn't wash his hands and with your club spending 15 plus million on players, could you at least install washing facilities.!

Oi....nothing wrong with the Hellenic Premier League, that's where I plied my footballing skills.
Seriously though, I think the OP was asking people whether they'd keep going to games or not, not whether they would stop supporting the club altogether.
I'm lucky because I have too much fun in and around the games to ever consider not going.
This season I have watched matches in the company of Nines, Ciarrai Abu, Brixton and his family, Hoops Eternal and Stan. In addition to those fine gentlemen I've spent drinking time with CORKeR, Finglas, the IrishRs en masse, Col, Tooting (all to briefly), Finney and Steve Russell (apologies to any I've missed), Norway is yet to come and I hope to be adding Woody (and Staines?) to that list shortly. Why would I stop?
My next target is to watch a match with Col, but I'll need to drag him away from those restricted height seats he sits in! How about a league Cup games next season mate? I'll earn you now, I do talk a bit during the match......

I'd be up for that mate. Are the seats in Ellerslie worse than anywhere else then?
Still time to regain some pride this year and I don't mean by winning game, I mean in the way we play and the attitude shown on the pitch.
Changing your football team is like changing your sex...you won't sit comfortably either way
If you look what's happening in the Championship, it's an exciting league. I'll enjoy it more than this season, so long as we're competitive...

Most of the last 18 years have been awful - but at least this year we are losing at home to Manchester United instead of Scunthorpe United, that's one plus point.
And yes I'll be there in August watching us draw 0-0 with Barnsley.

I had been of the belief earlier in the sseason that I would be making a trip to LR this season but that opportunity has now evaporated. But regardless, if it returns next season and I avail myself of it, regardless of where we are, I will attend whatever matches are possible for the duration of time that I am there. Been a supporter gfot 34-35 years and seen a lot of bad with some of the good and it didn't do me then, and if it happens, it won't do me now
Its inevitable that you will lose some fans as it happens to most clubs who get relegated. Its a shame as the clubs need the support more than ever, I have been watching the swans for over 50 years and i know how fickle fans can be and its not that long ago that we were getting 2-3000 regular fans and as we were getting better a few more turned up. today you cant get a ticket and have 16,000 ST holders with another 6,000 waiting on the books. we only allow 2.000 paying through the turnstiles and the other 2,500 for away fans, it has grown so big that we are in the middle of planning an extension to accommodate an extra 10,000 fans....we have gone against going down the road of spending huge amounts for players and we have a strict wage policy. we decided to move from the vetch and in partnership with the ospreys and the council to invest in a state of the art stadium and build on from there. we have never looked back and have gone on from strength to strength......A new stadium is a must for qpr if they want to become a long time premiership club because the one you got now with a max of around 18,000+ is not big enough to sustain premiership football for the long term.....Spending millions and paying way over the top wages for a club as small as yours can only go in one direction and we all know where that will lead......A new stadium is a must...
