            Welcome aboard to the new Korean fans and all that but as a matter of interest am I the only one that sees a truly hilarious side to all of this?
            "Imagine a relationship that went wrong but you held on in there for years: that's what it is like supporting a football team. Your loyalty to a team can never die. Ties are stronger than they could ever be with a woman. If she goes and sleeps with your best mate, it's over. If the Rs' boss, Ian Holloway, slept with my best mate, QPR would still be my team. Even if many of the things that you loved about going to matches have gone - terraces, team shirts without sponsors and being able to smoke at grounds - you still stick with your team." - Peter Doherty.

                What? I was referring to the arrival of all these new Korean fans. I've nothing against it at all but it's pretty funny to see LR being turned into a tourist attraction.

                  It's a good thing right, I'd rather they come to LR and watch a real football club on the up.

I can't believe for one moment that if Park was to leave for whatever reason, that many of these new Korean fans would remain QPR fans...I think that is the reality..sadly.
                    dont really understand your point. every fan has to start somewhere. would you make them sign a ten year contract at their first game promising they will be fans for life? sometimes i think the typical qpr fan would be happiest if he was all alone on an old-fashioned terrace, standing in the rain getting wet watching us in about the third division losing 5-0 - just so they cd bore all their friends for years to come about how "I was there." Ever heard of trying to grow a fan base and grow a club?

                      Welcome to the 21st century mate. Must be quite a shock to some, seeing fans in a football stadium that are not all from a two mile radius of White City and who are not all white, fat and old.

                          It most certainly is!!

                              my point being that odds on to a penny that these Korean bods will be off to follow another club if and when Park up sticks and leaves QPR. They follow Park, not QPR. Any new fans would be more than welcome if they were not player specific.
                              How many have stayed at MU since Park left - nor many I bet....just hate fickleness thats all.

                                If that's going to be our attitude, then I'm sure they will be off too.

                                We treat them as our own, might have a few more fans around the globe.

                                If you don't give it a try, you'll never know?
