    I saw derby seats were available at £300, why are they selling to these people and why are the police not involved? Its touting and is illegal or is that just illegal for individuals but not companies?

    I don't know the answers to these questions. I'm just passing on what my mum said. I'm guessing that this is some officially sanctioned company but they've found some way around and have taken advantage of QPR trust maybe. Whatever the case may be, the guy at the ticket office was well annoyed at them.

    It's probably all legal but the point is it makes them douche bags and a load of QPR fans may not get to the game as a result.

    These aren't on general sale so we couldn't even sell 20001 yet as they are limited to 2 for 10k STH.

    I'm getting bloody nervous! In Greece still and on a bloody boat trip with no internet until 4pm tomorrow. Chances don't sound great for me and boy sitting together! Holding out that the guarantee at least means I get tickets! Argh won't be happy until they're in the bag!

    That's about right, probably 90% of season ticket holders have purchased tickets and maybe 70% odd have taken a second ticket, some are probably waiting to be able to buy at the same time as members to sit together. In theory the most we could have sold by now would be about 21k, 10k season tickets x2 and then maybe up to 1k of people linked to the club(players, staff etc) buying for themselves and family.

    I'd like a good ticket for me and my son but just seeing QPR at Wembley will be ok even if I'm in the gods

    Pretty pissed off, I booked my seats within 5 mins of the sales opening on phase 1, just checked what seats and row they allocated me and I've been given seats in the last row of block 112.

    I suppose the question is whether we will sell all out allocation. It will be slightly embarrassing if we don't, especially after comments that were made about Wigan's support.

    Just looked out of interest on the 2nd of those web sites and they only have a stock of 40 tickets but they are selling them at nearly 4 times the face value.......How did they get hold of these tickets?

    I assume they have to be based overseas because it is illegal or probably illegal for people to do but OK for companies to do.

    Pay for a bunch of memberships, probably paid for Wigan and Brighton memberships too.

    The club knows they do it but apparently can't stop it.

    Don't worry mate, it's a great view from there. Better to be at the back of the lower tier than the front. In 112, anything in the first 10 - 15 rows and you're looking through the goal anyway.

    I hope they don't sell any of them but some poor beggar will cough up on Friday afternoon.
