    For those with doubts about filling our new stadium have a look at this

    4th May 1994 Chelsea v Coventry - Attendance 8,923

    Fulham 1995/96 season - Average attendance @ Craven Cottage 4191.

    tweeted curtiousy of Northolt.

    I think that should answer any doubts you may ever have.

    Job done! Now get behind TF & the team <ok>

    If and its a big if we are in the prem in about 5 years time then we would have a good chance of filling it. Long way to go though

    Good facts, Queens. Difficult for anyone to oppose.

    As I posted on the sticky thread, success is the key. Chelsea were a joke for decades as were Fulham. Another pointer, in 1965 we averaged about 5,500 in 1975 we averaged 24,000, fans are fickle but I think a winning team and a generous pricing structure will fill it...

    Or look at what Brighton's new stadium has done for their support. It's a smashing stadium!

    Chelsea have always had a larger latent support than ourselves. I'd reckon that a greater percentage of QPR supporters go to matches than Chelsea supporters do, even ignoring the Abramovich disciples.

    to be fair to brighton, they have always had a big following, and there catchment area is massive, the old goldstone ground they would get around the 20k mark, new stadiums bring in new and old fans, I like loftus road, except its to cramped for leg room
