Just spoke to the box office and they have stated that ST holders will be hearing soon with regards to refunds but details are still being discussed. What takes 4 weeks to decide is beyond me , amount and means of payment is surely the only decision they need to come to. Also they say it looks likely we will be getting vouchers. so anytime before christmas would be nice.
To be fair they have been sorting our signings and sponsorships so its fair enough that should to a priority. Also they are not stupid. The longer the money is banked the more interest they will gain so the less it will actually cost them. Also the nearer it gets to Christmas the more likely people will be happier to spend the money in the club shop. Im just grateful we're getting something back. Still cant believe it really? Im not sure how much its gonna be though.
I posted this a few weeks back but it didn't get enough laughs so here goes again. The refund notice is currently being prepared and will be as follows: "Dear Season Ticket Holder, You will no doubt have heard about the reduction in ticket prices for games at Loftus Road. As you may also have heard it was also our intention to offer a significant refund for our loyal season ticket holders. Since then however our circumstances have changed significantly. Neil Warnock has been acting like a kid in an unattended sweetshop in his transfer market dealings and has cost the club something like £13m in fees and landed us with a £1m a month wage bill. Mr Fernandes and Mr Mittal had an early morning meeting to discuss their response to this situation. The meeting was lively and informed. Mr Mittal was heard at one stage to mutter something like "come back Bernie all is forgiven". Mr Fernades responded that he was very experienced in losing his and other people's money in sporting enterprises and was very happy to offer the same service at QPR. At the end of the meeting a resolution was passed requesting that season ticket holders now be asked to pay a fair share of the investment that has been made by the club. We therefore duly enclose a bill for £25,595 for which we would appreciate your earliest attention and payment. In recognition of our earlier statement and as a gesture of goodwill, households with two or more season tickets will need only to pay the discount rate of £25,590 per ticket. Thanks for your continued support. Shaun and Joey also say 'hi, and fanks for the cash geezers'.
Fernandes tweeted to P Beard regarding the refunds the other day regarding when it would be sorted and he said soon. But let's not start looking for things to moan about. It will happen and that's all you should be worried about to be honest. It might seem a simple matter but with everything nowadays, there are always the legal aspects to consider before doing something.
