Good to know Dunga is finally available ....

Not very convincing, is it? And 9,000? Weren't they obliged to CAP sales at 11,000 just a couple of years ago?

To prevent too many people coming to matches, a target they effortlessly achieved, not just by withholding tickets, but by providing such stirring entertainment, bringing to mind great QPR names like Dunga, Shittu and Doudou.

Stretches credibility that the customarily drooling PR 'machine' actually 'announced' such low sales as 2,605. What? At a Club which was boasting 'average' attendances of 20,000 just a couple of years before, when Briatore & Co 'took over'.

Well I always thought that when Ali Russell talked about a cap of season ticket sales, that was the most insane thing I had ever seen from someone at QPR say about season tickets.

I said at a meeting years ago that the pricing was wrong and the gold, silver, and bronze seating was a insult to the fans and the loss of the bar was a kick in the balls to the loyal fans as well.

Rangers have spent the last five years or so treating their fans like idiots and that mindset needs changing.

Maybe, just maybe, the powers to be at the club are seeing at last that we have a fan base that needs to be treated at last with some respect.
And if they could stop the website being updated by people who think that fans can only understand headlines that are written in the manner of the Sun newspaper, and the match reports are a joke.

Not 9000 then as that was the target.

Lets be fair the 11k was a bit of marketing bs. I doubt we had anywhere near that amount as the average attendance is between 12/13k and a fair few of those are away fans.

Meanwhile Norwich City have already reached their cap of 20,000 ST's well before the season kicks off.

Derby had sold 17,500 before their early bird expired.

Sadly, we are one of the poor relations of the Championship. Not helped by the competition from other West London clubs.

If you were neutral but fancied going to lots of games, would you go to QPR for £525 or Fulham to see the Premiership stars for less? I don't know how much marketing QPR do, but, at the moment, it is not particularly effective.
