QPR Fans forum

Just wondering did anybody from here go last night and if so, how did it go?

999's or Beth perhaps?

Is there a future in this type of format? How do these meetings benefit the club and the fans or is it just one big moaning session with free cups of tea thrown in?

 

Bet Roller went. My sense from the feedback from recent forums posted on here is that they are positive, open discussions. You'd have to pay me a lot of money to spend an evening at one though.

 

Thanks very much for the update 999's.

What about the format and what do the club and the fans respectively get out of the evening?

 

Thanks for that Nines. I watched the whole of it, God help me, (there is no God, by the way) and found myself liking JFH more, loving SLF more (as if that were possible) and finding Lee Hoos an unbearable prick. I thought it was just me that felt slighted by the fact that my name had been removed from my seat, but it seems not. This American tosser doesn't get it does he? One of the few (tiny) good things that the club had done over recent years was the names on seats. It cost next to nothing, but gave us a warm feeling of belonging. This **** has ripped that away for the sake of saving a few a few quid and has no shame about it. 'It was that or the toilets'. **** off.

 

Thanks Nines! Good to watch. JFH's comments about giving the team and especially the young players, full support were bang on.

 

Fair play to you for going 999's. Personally, I wouldn't have the patience to listen to some of that stuff more than once. I don't mean the important stuff like who we signed, new stadium/training ground etc. I think the whole name on seats issue is really trivial - sorry Stroller but that's my view on it. The club may have got it wrong and upset some ST Holders but it is not top of the list in terms of important issues affecting the club. We are talking about a bit of plastic stuck on the back of your seat.

 

Welcome back mate, hope you had a great holiday.

 

I was going to say sucked off too, but now its stucket off! When I first saw names on seats I wrongly thought they must be in memory of supporters no longer with us, like the ones you see on many seats on coastal footpaths. So I was happy they went as part of anything trivial that will save cost now. SWP's wages are totally irelevant to cost cutting now. So when someone starting questioning Hoos on that I nearly switched off, but have a little sympathy with the young kid finding his name gone. But still that 20K or whatever it was is better used improving our young players or the Ellersley toilets as Hoos said.

 

It's a totem Finglas and it is important. I'm currently working with a Chelsea season ticket holder who went to the funeral of a QPR-supporting friend who had a photo of his seat name plaque amongst the memorial slideshow. He was moved by it and said you would never get that at Chelsea. We should not lose that.

 

You don't get it Oslo.

 

It is important to you Stroller and I wouldn't criticise how you feel on that.

What I am saying is, you're big issue is not so important to the overall club. I hope that makes sense
and doesn't offend you.

 

You just summed it up mate. I'm not important to the club.

 

No not really. I always preferred to stand and personally would rip all the f seats out.

 

I rest my case.

 

Not all names have been removed.
