This season I bought myself a QPR shirt plus one for my daughter and one for my son. About £120 of shirts with a 10% discount, this excludes other purchases made in the club shop. These kind of things people forget. The prices are good, Rangers are a central London club, which comes with it's own costs, and does not have the PL bounty unlike Fulham (people can always f**k off and watch them if all they are worried about is the cost, I prefer to watch my team and only my team). And of course, once we get into the summer and the current promise of transfers (Warnock is no fool), then watch the rush occur, for many this will be too late for the early bird offers. So get real and applaud the club for some major steps forward and stop bloody moaning.
      And that, folks......is why we live in a country known as rip-off Britain.
      Telling people, who quite rightly point out the absurdity of Foolham fans paying less to see more, while QPR fans pay more to see less, to ****-off and support Foolham, tends to make me think that on the whole, we deserve to be so easily ripped-off in this country.

          If I was to go back to Full Time Ed it will be for the forthcoming academic year if that makes sense, can you see them having that?

            Can someone please make this post sticky so those who are struggling to get their head around the latest prices may gain a greater understanding.

                You still don't have to pay £600 - It's £539 with the early bird offer plus a possible further 5% off, plus a free ticket to carling cup 1st round match if we are at home!

                            Nope, there's no renewal price this season.

                            R's fans who purchase a Season Ticket between now and the Early Bird deadline of May 17th 2010 will be entitled to at least a 10 per-cent saving on standard prices.

                            The early bird is for all fans, not just existing season ticket holders.

                              Existing season ticket holders should've got a further discount I reckon.

                                Apart from the tired old "F... off and support Fulham" line, which I hate(!), I tend to agree with all that.

                                If people are paying less to get more (hopefully), I wont knock that.

                                At least they've done something, even it it wont please everyone.
                                Let's be honest, it was never going to please everyone.
