Tony Fernandes discusses new stadium plans

[DeepcutHoop]

Yes I disagree with it and so would the vast majority of fans and locals who might support other teams would

Evidence for that?

Have you offered you opinion to the club about the new development/ground since the announcement was made?

Twitter maybe one of the ways but please don't tell me the club have gone out of their way to get feedback, they really haven't. I'm not saying the Board are completely out of touch with fans at all I just think some people want to believe it more than others despite the lack of evidence.

I don't dislike Fernandes its actually his little fan club which make it look like that , I just think TF can throw a section of our support a bone and they will chase it every time.

Fans like Richard (and i'm talking Fernandes fans not QPR fans) would retrieve bone and then hump his leg while giving him a sneaky lick :-)

When you say it's the so-called feedback is not representative, do you actually mean 'I disagree with the feedback received so far'?

Nobody is saying that Twitter is the best way to get feedback, but it's one of the ways. Is this not being put clearly enough for you?

Genuine question, how does he know people registered on Twitter are actually QPR fans ?

Yes I disagree with it and so would the vast majority of fans and locals who might support other teams I know. I have never met a QPRfan who thinks we need a capacity like this. (actually edited that as it didn't read to well)

I'm sorry I can't round up all those people I reference, sit them in front of you and get them to explain why they think that...you will just have to take my word for it.

Thats fair enough , I'm not going to have a hissy fit like Dicky Boy and throw my toys out of the pram because you don't agree with me

After listening twice to the podcast ,i`m still very concerned about the ownership of the new ground issue ,TF is saying it will probably be in the name of the shareholders , surely the only way to 100% guarantee we will never be kicked out of this new ground is to have it in QPRs name ,so that is still a major concern .

With respect to getting feedback from the fans ,forget twitter , the club has every ST holder and members email addresses , just send us all out a questionair ,cant be too hard ,then you wont get fans from other clubs sabotaging things ( like me ,when Palace was asking about a new badge in the Croydon Advertiser ! )

New kit is going to be pony next season , according to Tony , cant understand why we would put up with that .......
Badge wont be changing next season also , and when it does reading in between the lines ,we wont be getting any of the old badges back ......

Tony always comes across well ......He works the media well

As long as you've contacted the club in some way to offer your opinions about the new ground (and encouraged everyone else to do the same), and not just complained that the opinions the club received from elsewhere are unrepresentative, I've got no issue at all.

We all agree that fans input is necessary, and despite vblock's insistence that black is white, up is down, but only if Tony said it, so do the club.

Let's all ensure that everyone has their say, whatever medium they use, and regardless of whether we agree with them or not.

Off course he is very savvy like this and this is why so many off our fans love him.

Still like I said and now you've reitterated the point....the club have our details , send out a definitive QPR questionaire and the response would be massive. Families would sit around the dinner table completing them, friends would discuss them over a pint, twiitter is not a reliable source of feedback for me.

Really? You should have said.

Email the club yourself, why wait for them to ask? This is important isn't it?

If you do it now, you're more likely to get it noticed individually, rather than among thousands of survey answers being collated by data monkeys.

Why should I contact the club they want my feedback they should contact me they have my number they have my address.

Call me cynical but I can't help thinking fans feedback on twitter is selectively chosen for media sound bites

Why should you contact them yourself?

To give them a more representative idea of what fans think. Like the people on Twitter have. Some of those responding on Twitter probably agree with you anyway btw.

[vblockranger]

Wont make the slightest difference anyway what fans think...they bought us as a means to an end and that end is in sight.

Who's to say the club won't be surveying members and ST holders? The announcement's only a few days old.
