Away support on 14:04 - Apr 4 by queensparker | I’ve got two kids at primary school in Kensal Green and predictably a lot of the parents (most who aren’t that into football unlike their kids) default to going to Spurs / Arsenal / Chelsea for their first games I’ve been on a mission to get them along to Rangers (their local club ffs) and without exception they always prefer Loftus Road for all the reasons we know: close to pitch, atmosphere, proper ground. |
I brought some friends from France for the home game against Bristol City. Even though it was a 0-0 they all loved it and now all support/follow the Rs, to the point that they want to create an official supporters club here in Montpellier. Result! One had been to Arsenal before and said he much preferred LR, a proper english ground like he imagined it should be | | | |

Away support on 14:27 - Apr 4 by Antti_Heinola | Well, to be fair, attendances generally are up hugely on the early 90s everywhere. But still. I do think we have a very large fanbase, but as others have said before, maybe compared to most clubs it's quite scattered. |
Yep. I think our sell out crowd v Birmingham was still the lowest attendance in the championship that day. We'd have been lucky to get 10,000 for the same fixture in the top flight in the 80's and 90's | |

But the loyalty conquers all. Unreal. Well done to you all. On Ray's anniversary, can I just borrow a phrase? "My word!" | |

One of my friends relocated down to Cornwall a couple of years ago, and asked if I had a spare reference number. I told him not to panic as there's no way it'll sell out on a Tuesday night. Just as well we found him that reference number | |

It really is amazing. I'd have thought selling 500 tickets would be good! I'm feeling a little bit envious of our travelling army these days! | | | |

I couldn't make that game nor could I make it to Hillsborough ( - first time I'd missed a game of that magnitude) but was in a pub in Dartmouth getting updates. Once we'd won had plenty of Plymouth fans coming up to me (I was, of course, wearing QPR colours) and saying how pleased they were and how it had been a great season for both clubs. | | | |
