£52 to watch a game at Loftus Road? They can piss off.
I know a rallying call like this would mean more coming from someone who actually goes to more than two away games every year, but for fucks sake, when will this extortion end?
A completely empty away end would send a message to these fuckers that football fans won't be raped like this any more. Who's with me on the sofa?

Spoke to West Brom, Wolves and Stoke fans in the pub earlier, and none are planning on going there next season. And these guys go every away game.
I went to Loftus Road some years back, and certainly wouldn't pay anywhere near that amount to go back again.

Finances stop me going to aways, but I would urge any Stoke fan to not be mugged simply because of their unending love for Stoke City.
We have led on so many things in the last 3 seasons off the pitch, we need to take a lead on this.
£52 to sit in a dreadful ground with a dreadful view? It's an utter joke. No Premier League game should be over £30, and I'd say nearer £25.

I'm assuming the away enclosure is still the same shit hole that hasn't changed much in over 20 years?
For that reason, I'm out.

Jamo, perhaps we should watch it with that family who live under that flyover by QPR's ground?
Never seen anything like it!

No Premier League game should be over £30, and I'd say nearer £25. Exactly. I will pay up to £35...anything over that and I feel like I'm being ripped off so won't go. I can understand why people can justify £50 to visit old Trafford, The Emirates, Wembley etc but not a fucking shed like Loftus Road. |

I'll use the money to take in a non league game that weekend instead. Quality of stadium will be the same, I won't be lining the capitalist fuckers pockets, and I'll have a fair bit of change aswell.

Good away game is QPR, the £50 to get in is nothing compared to the overall spend on a really good day in London on the piss.

That boozer you found was about the only highlight really. 52 bastard quid, they do know this is football and not the fucking grand prix don't they? |

£52 for that shitty away end at Loftus Road? They can kis my rosy red (& whited striped) arse!
The decision is helped by the fact that we never win at QPR! Baaad memories!

The only reason I was bothered about QPR coming up was because, poor views not withstanding, I have actually enjoyed going there. At those prices however, not a chance.

I think the last time i went to QPR there must've been a boycott on and it wasnt even that expensive.  |

it's not all about what you can get elsewhere for £52, but more about not being taken for idiots and a cash cow.
Saying that, for just ONE £52 ticket, a family of THREE can:
get into Alton Towers for the day,
book a room in a hotel at the seaside and have 2 full days there
Go to watch 4 films
Most of the weeks shopping
4 visits to ten-pin bowling
watch 3 non-league matches
etc

I'm 100% not going. I don't care if it's the first fixture and we've just signed Lionel fucking Messi, I refuse to pay £52 for a league game, especially at Loftus fucking Road.

Normally make a weekend of the London games, as i stop with a mate, and we have a right good time on the lash.I would rather stay at home and paint the ceiling than pay that kind of money to the cockney wide boys.

The best thing about it is that when QPR come to Stoke, they'll be picking tickets up for about £30.
It's about time the Club charged visiting fans the SAME as we're charged when we go to their place!
Robbing bastards!

Why are people going, and giving in to these money grabbing twats. If it was Stoke who had done this, i'd be fucking furious with the club.

I like Loftus Road. The view is not the best but honestly 'how good the view was' comes about #15 in my list of things which make up a good football day out. Having said that £52 is a rip-off but it's still a whole lot cheaper for us living down South than a home game and lets face it away games are far more fun even if we travel more in hope than expectation. So I shall be boycotting the boycott  |

I definitely won't be going, which is tough to say as I hate missing games, but that price really is a joke.
