  • £36 for an away fan coming to Loftus Road this season.

    I cant believe Im writting this, but we are charging Hull and Rotherham fans £36 for a ticket.


    I have personally written to the club asking for the prices to be reviewed, what a joke.

    Should be higher?

    We charge them whst they charge for our fans. All tickets are matched i thought.

          Not sure they are..Norwich fans only had to pay 20 per ticket when they played ull away. We always seem to charge a lot. 36 quid to sit in school upper!! That's a lot of money when you consider they prob pay a booking fee on top, plus travel, plus food and drink. 100 quid on Tuesday night. Hardly makes for a good atmosphere does it??

            That’s not true, many clubs in the championship wanted to cap away fans tickets at £20, the Prem cap at £30, we refused to take part. Look at ticket sales for tomorrows game and tell me our pricing is correct, new standing section half empty, all seats that are empty earn FA, how is that a good policy.

                  I remember that adventure playground with the war zone looking club house.
                  Total death trap on today's standards, would never pass muster on a H&S inspection these days, but was a lot of fun back in the day.

                    Expenses in London cost a lot more than in places like Hull. As in I've never heard of a Hull Weighting Allowance for wages.

                      Few things.

                      1. Not all clubs are charging fans £36, in-fact I think Hull are doing £20 is plenty?
                      2. What do FANS expect? FFP, we make #### all money, its how we run the club?

                        That's scandalous and embarrassing. Should be £25 max...... charging £6 more than Spurs, Arsenal, Liverpool etc for away fans is totally indefensible.

                        They're ordinary decent fans of fine old clubs - we should be making them welcome, not pricing them out of the fixture.

                          Don’t exactly make a lot on thousands of empty seats, should be £30 tops, if you want to save money stop giving players like Nico H 4 year deals, conservatively wasting half a million, resigning Owens and keeping a under 21 team that is basically useless.

                            Not only do we not have the money from the ticket, but the fans who would have been in those seats would buy a program, beer and burgers, netting the club more money.
                            Short sighted I feel.

                              Silly argument when their gate money is a minor part of their income whereas below Prem it is a major part.
