Millwall Cup Tie 09:52 - Jul 30 with 22671 viewsKodika

For the life of me I cannot understand the Club’s decision to close the Stanley Bowles stand for this game. I fully understand why it was closed for the friendly game against Fiorentina, or if we had been drawn against a first or second division team in the Carabao Cup. Millwall is a local derby, however, and considering our increased attendances last season, and frequent sellouts, I would have thought it would attract a sufficient crowd to open the stand.

Was looking forward to this until my wife informed that we had dinner arranged by her firm in St Albans for 2.00 Pm next Saturday. Always check your diaries.
Tickets gone to a good home.


I’m sorry but you can’t call 2pm dinner. That’s still steadfastly in the lunch category

Shit but local

That's going to be some dinner if it starts at 2pm, to be fair.

Poll: QPR to finish 7th or Brentford to drop out of the top 6?

Thus speaketh a Londoner!

For most of the country, 12.00-14.00 was dinner time & the main meal of the day. Tea or Supper were eaten later on. Lunch didn't exist & it was always School Dinners & not School Lunches.

Of course, since my childhood, lunch has entered the vocabulary, as in lunch breaks at work & restaurants/pubs having a lunch menu. Personally, I stopped eating a midday dinner when I discovered liquid lunches in 1969!

They’ll have sent out the email as an ‘add to wallet’ thing pretty much immediately. The good folk at Apple even put them into the same folder for me though that does mean I’ll forget and try to scan the season ticket for the Millwall match before realising.

Our club have never had an interest in the cup. Look at the side Stephan put out last year. I’m sure this year will be no different hence all our lot not bothering. When the club start taking cups seriously, then so will the fans.


I agree that the clubs attitude is awful in relation to the cup comps , however when you say that you are sure this year will be no different well i'm not so sure.
There are a full 2 weeks after playing the last of the 6 friendly matches & the 1st league game , it would make no sense to have that build up & then have your top players sitting around for 2 weeks not playing any games .
As someone has said elsewhere the club should state that this will be a strong 1st team side playing & then the fans could make an informed decision on whether of not to attend.

They sent them to my brother’s email address instead of mine,so no panic now.

Exactly.

Regardless of who's playing for QPR you're either turning up to support the team, or you aren't.

Of course it was ‘Dinner Ladies’, not ‘Lunch Ladies’, at junior school. I’ve still got all their autographs from when I left in 1969!

I grew up in London (60s & 70s) and at school it was always 'dinner time' and 'dinner ladies' but on outings we always took a 'pack lunch'. Never heard of 'pack dinner'.

i have very litttle interest in this game at this time, mainly as the area becomes a police state which enforces millwall's bullying behaviour and forces QPR to usually have to take longer routes away from out home stadium to stations ! any form of segregation should be for the benefit of the home fans .
also our near pathetic cup efforts do not inspire , yet as a club we could do with some revenue ??

That’s what I thought, not even started to put the new rail seats in yet ( as of last Saturday)
Anyone notice the upper school end now is 3/4 rail seats.


Given most away fans want to stand this makes a lot of sense.

Imagine being an away fan and you wanted to be seated and the fans in the rows in front of you all stood up.

This way most away fans will know they will be standing unless requesting to be in the seated area.

I’ve got my ticket. I might be naive but I’m expecting a full strength team akin to the last preseason friendly (but with some added edge). For that reason I thought it was a great idea to bring the League Cup games forward to a week before the championship starts.


I agree.

I think it is better suited to be treated as the last warm up game before the league starts and whenever possible, a strongest line-up to be selected.

Madsen is injured, so will be missing along with Lamptey, Kolli, Dembele and Obikwu, but otherwise it should be a good line-up.

Just got my tickets for Saturday. Sitting in Upper Loft for a change.

Really surprised at the lack of sales. I knew it wouldn’t be sold out but thought there would be more interest than what’s sold thus far.

Quite disappointing.

As mentioned it's the summer, school holidays, people are away.

Stick this game in October and you'd have a full house, or as close to it..

It is often forgotten that with the cup games ticket sales start form scratch , whereas a league game has circa 9k season tickets already sold these cup games start from zero.
Stick this game in october & yes there would be a larger crowd but nowhere near a full house.
Just hoping we can somehow scrape through & get something interesting in the 2nd round away from home like Barnet , Orient , Colchester even Cambridge again which was great fun 2 seasons ago .

There would be less sales if it was being played in the midweek between the first & second league games.

Of course there would be more sales if this was in October, but that's mainly because it would be in round four!

I booked a holiday specifically to end in time for the start of the Championship season.

I did that before they announced the EFL cup would take place ahead of the Championship season, which they only announced in January.

I would've have definitely gone to Millwall at home (or away!) had I known it was a possibility. I am sure I am not alone in this seasonal planning holidays around football calendars, especially parents. I doubt very much fewer would've come three days after Pompey. I know of other fans getting back in time for that.

I'd stick my neck out, in fact, and suggest that had the game taken place after a positive result at Pompey (which has sold out for away fans), QPR would have a healthy 13-14k+ in.

It's the first competitive game of the season and should be treated as such.

Maintain high standards from day one, as a club we will be going out to try and win every game and be as competitive as possible. If you start with an attitude of oh well this one doesn't matter then no shock when the team randomly phones in a few performances through the season.

Start as you mean to go on. Strongest team, try to win the game. We've just had multiple preseason games to experiment.
