I’ve got a golden ticket.
School End Upper. Last time I sat there we beat West Ham 3-0 on a Boxing Day sometime around the late 19th Century! |  | |  |

This will be only my second ever time to be sat in the Upper School end in my 53+ years of fandom. The only other time, we beat Wigan 1-0 thanks to Paul Furlong! |  | | |

Yep checked nothing but telling me I applied for the ballot back in September that's the lot not surprised being single person puts me bottom of the pile whereas 6 people from 3 different households go to the top. Just makes me wonder whatever was the point of Loyalty points as a family of 3 in their 2nd season as a season ticket holder go ahead of myself and stowmarketranger. Particularily choked when I saw Brentford fans being interviewed and those who had been longest going where top of the queue yet again just in pure PR and respecting peoples loyalty they are in front of us | | | |

I would take it up with the club if you put in for both games and got neither, particularly if there is any evidence that someone has got tickets for both games. |  | | |

Completely get your point, but that would feel a bit harsh on any kids wouldn't it? I don't think number of years you've been going is a totally fair metric either. Not a great deal the club can do imo, but sorry you didn't get tickets this time.
Makes more sense for Brentford too. Their gates have increased because people from around the world have been flocking to see the best side anyone has played this season, or any other season. Some have bought season tickets even though they can only get over from Mongolia for one game a season, but they want to guarantee their seat. So, can see why they've got different rules there. |  |

So hard to get the right balance but do think the majority of those who kept tickets will be the ones who have been going for years anyway so the vast majority of the 2,000 at the weekend would be the king who come every season regardless of how good or bad we are.
Not sure it will help you but my Dad applied on his own as did a mate of ours and they both got tickets so think it was random rather than them going for the larger groups |  | | |

Think his point dave was that if say you have a bubble of four, it only needs one of you to get a ticket, then you all have, so essentially, you have a 4 times bigger chance of getting a ticket. But again, not much the club can do there. It's a crappy situation, but hopefully in a few months it'll be better. | |

Re Brentford, I understand that all of Andy Hinchcliffe's family applied for tickets, | |

I'm in School End Upper (Only 2nd ever time I've been up there)
Y3, 4 rows from the front, so I should be able to make myself heard if Chair fails to clear the first man from a corner........again! 
For info - I'm in a bubble of 1, so us 'singles' in QPR terms DO get tickets.
Would be surprised, especially given the KO time of Stoke, if anyone doesn't get one or the other of what might be the only two games with spectators for a while.
Presume the Stoke 'results' will be out on Sunday/Monday? | | | |
| Ticket ballot details on 14:42 - Dec 10 with 1238 views | Northernr |
I think it's a pretty safe bet that if you want one for Stoke you can have one. | | | |

Apparently London is now the Covid hotspot in the country and all London MPs have been called to a meeting with Health ministers for an update so I rather fear we're about to go into Tier 3 and we're out again. |  | | |
