Some very valid points and I hope the club will listen.

I doubt the club will do anything about it

[ArthurQPR_NYC]

you think the club maybe arent keen bc the coaches are wet, and they dont want the liability? i wonder what other clubs do in this respect to funding or not funding wet coaches

[Mattyqpr]

Never going to happen is it. We have more than one fans group, so technically you'd have to open it up to everyone.

[MYU]

As far as I know clubs have to go via official channels.

Erm

The club don't have ANY official channels.

There's NO Official Supporters Club.

There are two elected bodies that exist QPR1st and the LSA (The former don't do travel ..or much at all to be honest)

[MYU]

I'm not sure how it works, all I know is football clubs have steps they need to follow as well. If they don't then I don't see what the problem could be?

[Scott Jones]

They take 200,000 out of the pot and put on a couple of half empty coaches off their own backs is what the problem is...without consulting the only elected fans group who does travel.

As I said before I think they have to do things a certain way, I'm not 100% sure how it works but the LSA will know more.

I support the LSA and the job that they do, which is why you'll find a sticky thread on here.

We've also found it difficult at times to liaise with the club in the past, we're not talking about any freebies, we're talking about paying but offer you members a better experience on this site. They agree then ignore, it's a bit like us and them at times.

Perhaps that's the reason, but if is then why not just come out and say so? We're supposed to be a transparent club after all.

Because no coaches are officially "wet"

Ah, of course.

So perhaps now we're getting to the nub of the issue i.e. legal liability?...

[MYU]

This makes sense now.

[vblockranger]

Dont know much about it but why not make the LSA an "official" supporters group? The club are given £200k over 3 seasons to spend on improving matchday experience. Make LSA official or start up a new one. Even Brentford have got one.

Air con is always on too high at the back of the coaches and in the toilets as well. That's the only reason I can think of that people go to the back then come back sniffing with runny noses
