How many R's fans in UK??

[bushkangaroo]

How many fans do you think we (QPR) have in the UK? That includes all who would say they support us even if they are armchair fans, used to go to games or rarely go. I reckon @100,000-125,00. I would estimate the highest supported club (obviously Man U) at around 4 million. Here are my estimates for other London clubs, although I also include Watford:

Arsenal--1 million
Chelsea--2 million
Fulham--60,000
Tottenham--1 million
West Ham-500,000
Charlton--80,000
Palace--85,000
Milwall--70,000
Watford--100,000
Brentford--40,000
Leyton Orient--40,000
Barnet--25,000
AFC Wimbledon--20,000

Apologies if I've missed any clubs out. What is your opinion? Am I a long way out in my estimates?

hmmmmmm

I would say

60K

Should put in Dagenham & Redbridge I suppose. I reckon 25,000.

My point is, I suppose, that we (sadly, not yet) are not all that big a club. Even clubs like Sheffield United (today's opponents) must have at least as many fans, probably more like @150,000 fans, than us.

Tottenham and Arsenal are bigger supported in the whole country than chelsea......barnet well over the top they would have 10k tops...there was a survey done a few years back and QPR came out as having around 250000 fans in greater london..take northolt greenfoed and hillingdon and also harrow and QPR have a huge following...not to say they all go regular but we are a well followed team....Chelsea are not a huge club fan base wise across the south east and would say that most who go now are glory hunting rich kids ...In fact QPR hold the record for tickets sold for a cup final....62000 against oxford....
