    January 2012 Chelsea at home Fa cup 4th round Att 15728.....

    Take away the 3000 chelsea fans that equates to 12,700,yet we can sell 27000 in 3 days for the play off final,we are and always will be a small supported club so please nobody have any illusions of grandeur.That was embarrassing that day can't sell out a game with our supposedly great rivals,everyone who was there that day take a bow,the rest of you......... no excuses

        If you look on twitter and various forums people are scrambling around for tickets and some people are mocking Derby as up to now we have sold more tickets than them and it looks like we will sell the 37000 tickets before general sale which is amazing but I just cannot understand how we couldn't sell out on that particular day.
        Where have these 25000 fans appeared from

          Derby get 30k every week at home so to point the finger seems a little silly.

            The fa cup regardless of who we play has much less of a draw than qpr at wembley . I agree we should always sell out against the scum but surely you can understand the demand for this game ?

                  Ah i see.....yeah fair point....i think for something like this people who say normally have work commitments, are prepared for such a big occasion to take time off, likewise i imagine for people who
                  struggle financially ....they try and find money for this...plus a lot of families will all go i would've thought

                    It doesn't matter where they've come from or wether they will be there next season, what matters is they will be at wembley supporting QPR. I've got a feeling you're only having this dig at our fan base coz you're struggling to get a ticket yourself.

                      Think you need to worry about your own attendances next season.

                      Always seems to pop up having a moan this fella. Clearly a fool

                        Totally with you on this, there will be around 20k real fans and 17k day trippers

                          I'm 47 years old been Rangers fan all my life, but things change wife, 5 kids and responsibilities but the love for Rangers never changes, Rangers fans are everywhere so don't belittle Rangers fans who have been loyal and been travelling all over the country since the 70's but circumstances change and can't go all the time.

                              Looks like touts and fans of other clubs have snapped up the tickets, not 37k Rangers fans....still probably make general sale and will be hundreds of tickets floating about come matchday
