    There is something wrong when a newly promoted club struggles to sell 1800 tickets for the Lane and 1300 for Old Trafford for weekend fixtures.

    Newly promoted clubs should be chomping at the bit to visit places like this. They may not get the chance again.

    We, on the other hand, are taking 4k to Burnley for Monday night, televised fixture in the height of summer hols. Only United and Liverpool take more away. KTBFFH

    QPR by their own admission are in the middle tier amongst London support. Well below Arsenal, Spurs and ourselves but above Barnet and Brentford. Perhaps on the Fulham, Charlton and Wall level.

    Nothing wrong with that. It is what it is.

    Apparently they took about 50 million to Wembley in the play offs.

    Where are their 47k 'proper fans' that went to Wembley.

    White hart lane is not that much further... And they have the cheek to criticize Fulham's away following, who took a respectable 1500 to Ipswich

    I hope your not suggesting they have a 'glory' following? Surely that's only applicable to us?

    QPR have history don't ya know? :biggrin:

    How dare you suggest such a thing about Qpr. Do you not know that history ended in 1986 and started again in 2011 :)
