Email from the club

[WeAreQPR12]

Right as I am not a family man and pay full price, supporting QPR does become very expensive. When I recieved an email saying famous 5 I thought oh great this could save me money. After reading it I really what a waist of time it is. They want the normal £125 for 5 matches (silver),4 a selected pack,so not your own choice of games and what do I get from it? The same seat for those 5 games and I don't have to pay the £3.50 postage/con fee. I had to read it twice to find out where I was getting a deal. Oh and I am guarenteed a ticket for the newcastle game, which who knows where we will be in may but signs don't look good. FFS we are getting 12k and they offer a guy that is only working 4 days a week because of the reccession sod all. Where is the temptation for me? Yes it is great to have deals for the kids but for someone who trys to earn an honest wage you get sod all. Pathetic thanks a bunch. You can keep your famous 5 deal and an empty stadium.

i got that and to be honest didn't even bother opening the link

[ScottJones]

Yeah I said this at the time. Yes it gets you a seat for Newcastle AND you get the same seat for all games but basically its complete BS and I doubt many will bother with it at all

I thought it was one of their better marketing ideas, especially if it means that the Geordies can not buy seats all over LR for the final game of the season.

[WeAreQPR12]

Kingo your assuming a sell out and us around the playoff places then?
We are getting 12,000 ffs surely they can do better than saving me 3.50 to support my team?
They are not even saving me that because you can just buy on the day so I think it won't tempt anyone like Scott just said.

Could you not get a job as a steward, you would get in free then and get paid??

[WeAreQPR12]

Yeah unfortunately I don't have eyes in the back of my head to watch the game.

It's a good scheme - one that would work brilliantly for the club if we were close to capacity and people were worrying about getting a seat or seats together.

As that offer stands, what's the incentive apart from guaranteeing a seat for the Newcastle game (incidentally, if I were the QPR Safety Manager, I'd already be looking at making that game all ticket and sales open only to those already on the database. Will be absolute carnage if Newcastle are in with a shout of going up).

Needed to be priced more competitively imo.

[jfish]

There is no chance they would let the Newcastle game go on general sale...

[Youvebeenrangered]

QPR need to stop trying to con fans with fake deals that dont actually do anything for us... Does upset me to see dedicated fans being treated like mugs.

Got the same e-mail today too, Stupid thing is am i not on the data base as a S/T holder so why would i want to buy more seats for myself???????
