Most QPR fans I know either have sisters, aunts, cousin's etc going to Wembley Saturday that have never been to watch us.
Can we all make an effort to educate them around our songs and clip them around the ear if they don't sing and get involved. It really seems to me like there will be a lot of people in our end that are just going to support their families QPR fan.
Personally I think anybody with less than 500 loyalty points who dares to turn up on Saturday should be lined up before the game to each, in turn, stand in front of Nedum Onuoha and have him say "where the fck have you bin?" into their face.

I think they'll get the hang of COME ON YOU R'SSSSSSSSS and the Vindaloo tune NA NA NA etc. Tricky little numbers but newcomers certainly should be up to speed by extra time
The pride of West London and Captain Jack never get sung by many outside R block and they can't be heard by the half way line let alone the away end at Loftus Road. The noise is in the simple stuff so KISS (keep it simple, stupid).

By the way..got to the club shop just before 5pm today interested in buying a couple of Play-Off Final flags,there were loads of 'em all over the shop,so I stuck a couple of 'em on the counter.
Shop assistant girl: 12... fat bloke: 6quid? each that's a bit steep! Shop assistant girl: ...each ,that'll be 24 pounds sir. fat bloke: You're having a giraffe ,24 nicker for two lots of nylon,with a Flav's hair badge and a bit of wood ?!? (I made my excuses and hurriedly made my exit left.)
Looks like I'm on it with the (cheaper,homemade,bespoke) bedsheets..and foo koff Konk before you say owt.

Don't we? How do you know?
It depends on how you define regulars. I would imagine that we do have 40,000 regulars - at least if you define it as going a few times a season. I live in Yorkshire and rarely go to HQ but I've been to places on a Tuesday night that many ST holders wouldn't dream of going to (& why should they?). Think about it, people like me could go for years without being in the same stadium as some ST holders. So it's no surprise that a big match like this flushes all the fans out.
So how many match attending 'regulars' are there? What about ST holders first - 8k? Members - another 10-12k? Plus there's a shed load of non-members (as has been demonstrated on this board this/last week) who come to matches, just not every week. And probably thousands more lapsed members / ST holders who are taking a year off. The proof of how many regular ticket buyers we have is in the club's database. If they don't know how many people go on average once a season, 5 times a season, a dozen times a season etc then they can do the sums easily enough. The only missing people would be those who get their mates/husbands/brothers/wives etc to buy their tickets for them.

1) "I live in Yorkshire "... Instrumental from Dexy's Midnight Runners classic first album entitled rather oddly 'Thankfully not living in Yorkshire that does not apply.'
2)Good post...never underestimate the global Lost Tribe Of Hoops fans,the hangers on,the part-timers, the johnny-come-latelys, the glory-hunters & days-outers and fellow travellers and please don't come The Hoopier than thou home and away true R sanctimonious tw ot with them. Welcome to all the Aunt Nellies & all your nieces & nephews too. Whoever this disparate 39,100 is so long as they're not scum they make me feel proud.
3) "I've been to places on a Tuesday night that many ST holders wouldn't dream of going to (& why should they?)" You're not talking about notorious kinky yorkshire sex games such as ferrets up the jacksie,are you? You've been to Harrrogate but have you ever been to you,Alvarado?

Well that's me lining up with only 397 points even though I can answer "every home game".

So I went to virtually every game home and away between 1975 and 2005. More recently I havent been able to attend so I'm scraping the barrel by going Saturday.

Well I have been to only 7 games this year and wouldn't be classed a s a regular this season. I have no qualms about going on Saturday as I am a still QPR fan.
How many games would you need to attend to get the 500 loyalty points?

18st - that Dexy's track sounds like it's being played at the wrong speed (think that might date me as a vinyl junkie). As for the other one, do people really listen to that...
Yes I've been to Harrogate (not on a Tuesday night though - more likely Barnsley, Donny or Blackburn). Fortunately I avoided being assaulted in a not very nice way but I do wonder why people are supposed to put ferrets in their trousers....
