QPR Tickets

[Andy Partridge]

i've been reading all your comments about our game with interest. all i can sya is that when we played fulham a couple of years ago there were rangers fans in every part of the ground. and everyone remembers what happend then.

last season was a lot harder to get tickets. consequently the gate was 3,000 less and the away end was about 1,000 short of capacity as the police wouldn't allow rangers to put them on general sale.

so brentford have a choice. put tickets on general sale and have a sell out or restrict sale and get around 7 - 8,000.

i know for a fact that if we sell out rangers fans will try and get tickets from brentford.

i genuinely don't think there will be trouble as rangers fans don't have any bad feelings towards the bees. and mostly we're just looking forward to the drink up.

set one foot in OUR stand and uncle ron will set the dogs on yer!!!!

p.s. youre right about everything else.

 

[Andy Partridge]

Awright Voicey boy. how they hanging?

what is it with brentford and dogs? wasn't chic brodie enough? (and no cheap gags about the standard of women in beesland!!)

i think it would be prudent for the club to give us at least 1,000 places more than the usual allocation. i think they will as it's they only way they can at least attempt segregation.

when you come to LR you'll get 3,500. which i'm sure you'll fill and if so it's happend in the past that we've given seats over in ellerslie road.

it's not an easy one to sort out and if i were a bees fan i wouldn't be happy about giving more places over to away fans. but the club needs to maximise the potential revenue from the game and if it's likely that home fans wont fill their areas and there is a large demand for away tickets it stands to reason to give more to the away team.

it does piss you off i know. when we played chelsea it nearly always happend like that. and boy do we hate them for it.

dont worry mate, knowing brentford there'll probably give you 1/2 the new rd stand as well.........!!

 

[B2B]

or the whole New Road like Swindon that time.....

 

[Beestill my beating heart]

Swindon? Wasn't that were XTC came from? I smell a rat!

 

[Andy Partridge]

Aye Mr Beating (of) Hearts(?). Swindon is where the mighty XTC hail from and if the New Road is good enough for those country boys than i think it should be good enough for us City Slickers! Hell why not just give us the whole ground???!

Hell - why not give you a ticket for everyone of your girls that can remember the last time we were above you in the table

 

[Andy Partridge]

[Brickie Chap]

Good answer!!

 

[B2B]

I want my ticket and I want it now

 

[Andy Partridge]

he's insistent old B2B int he?!

i'm not being sarcy here honest...but whats happend to all the bees fans that went to the LDV final and play off? i know that at these sort of games you get the once a decade fan but for the game in november there will surely be a demand for 9,000 odd tickets for your fans?

what was the gate against spurs last season? i wouldn't have thought that spurs fans were everywhere. or against fulham in '92. don't tell me all those fans have gone away.

anyway, i'll be there and if we lose i'll buy everyone a pint in o'riordans after. but only if they can name XTC's second album!!

Spurs struggled to sell their tickets - well we have played them 4 times in ten years!!

As for Foolham, they have never taken the numbers we took to theirs on New Years Day(mid 90's). 6k - top turn out. crowd was only 9k - yeah right!!

Even the year they went up and we went down, they only just managed to sell out their allocation at GP. The away(in the November of that season and a night game) we took just over 2k.

We alawys had more fans willing to travel than them and we never let them take our pubs - unlike them 'letting' us walk over them

I suspect it will be slightly different with your guys though!!

 

[Brickie Chap]

Sorry got carried away slagging Foolham.

Spurs was just over 10k and Foolham was a full house of 12500, Sunday morning kick off.

Quality all day in the pub, ruined their play off hopes and increased our championship chances - how things have changed.

we have far too many casuals at the mo, due to years of mismanagement etc

but we should still sell a big whack... i will be coming down from sheffield with 2 mates for the game, cos it will be HUGE
