    Probably stuck behind a stairway crash barrier.  There are 16,000 restricted view seats at Loftus Road!

    Deck chairs in the SW corner. And perched in top of the big screen?

    That's me stuffed. On-call for work so can only attend if possible late doors. If we sell out can they provide one of those Valley Pass £10 streams, like you can get for midweek games?
    At £5 a ticket you've not lost much if you cant go ! I've lost the enjoyment of an almost full Valley and the atmosphere, occasion etc.
    You miss it by not working and not going, not by buying a ticket just incase

    Didn't realise the home areas of the Valley even had restricted view seats. 
    Don’t you believe it. I sat in the West Stand last season and randomly bought a ticket. Ended up with a bar right in front of me at eye height. Ruined the game for me. To be fair I complained on the Monday and they refunded half of my ticket but I suggested such seats should be sold as ‘restricted view’ so at least fans are aware before purchase.

    Let’s hope they print enough “matchday magazines”.

    Filling the Covered End is key so any suggestion of raising season ticket prices there needs to be dismissed. The sight of a packed home end and the noise generated must have a huge impact on both teams and sets of supporters in the ground. It’s also the bit that gets shown on tv when highlights are broadcast because that’s where one of the goals is located. A packed home end sends out a ‘look at what you are missing, come and be part of the fun’ message to fans. Keep the lower tier cheap and lower the prices in the upper tier. Then lower the prices around the rest of the ground. We have the momentum at the moment, let’s keep it going 
    £250 anywhere in the north and east, £350 in the west and £20 on the door 
    Not sure why this post was lol'd.

    Got 2. We should get point(s) as my wife will be there.

    Just a guess...., but is your wife coming?

    Just checked the weather forecast. I'm sure our defence will cope admirably with the high ball in the conditions!

    (I seem to remember another blustery game with Diawara having the most comedy attempts to read the fall flight of all time)

    Me neither, apparently football for a fiver breaks even... so a £250 season ticket doubles that to £10 and a £350 season ticket triples it to £15 a game.

    You've misunderstood the "football for a fiver breaks even" statement. This was in comparison to a normal game with fewer tickets bought but at full price taking into account increased spending in the ground. Effectively season ticket holders don't come into it as they have already paid.

    No but stick a vpn on in luxebourg and you can watch if for £5 on Valley Pass
    Excuse the ignorance, how do I get one?
    Type in opera. Free VPN. You use it instead of your usual search engine (google safari etc). The game is free on the Sky red button tonight.

    Not technically as there were free seats in the Jimmy Seed stand due to segregation.

    Yeah my bad, didn't read that properly at all ! Bringing things like catering back in house surely gives scope for lowering prices though. Packed out bars and tables and things like £60 a head in the vista etc surely pad out the match day income nicely to raise the average spend that was mentioned to be £1 per person. Crossbars is queue after 1pm and packed after the game so I'd be interested to know how much they do. 

    Lose a small bit on a ticket, but make it back in the kiosks, club shop and bars.

    Well the game was sold out to home supporters, so its correct. 

    If you mean selling literally 27,111, you would have to go back to the prem days.
