Work with a couple of fulham fans who said to me this morning they are not fussed whether they go to the premier or not...i know they've gotta win tonight then beat brentford in the final, but a day out at wembley would have been nice, then lose. They would rather be in an fa cup final.
Brentford on the the other hand would obviously like to experience the premier for the first time and make their own minds up.
Got me thinking, as a qpr fan, what would you prefere, a play off final to the premier, or an fa cup final.....with fans of course.
Think i would still edge going to the premier. |  |

FA Cup Final for me too. An opportunity to win a trophy known throughout the world. I'd also prefer a season in the Europa Cup rather than the Prem. |  | | |

FA Cup by a mile. I’ve been supporting QPR since the early 90’s so I’ve seen us have brilliant teams, finish top end of the league, England internationals etc but in all that time we’ve rarely won a cup game never mind think about winning it!!! |  |

The play off final was cool and everything, but I would genuinely trade never seeing us win ever again for an FA Cup final |  | | |

Has to be FA cup final.
The other is just a glorified third-place playoff. It’s absurd that you get a trophy for it.
Imagine at the olympics if on the podium they gave a trophy to the bronze medalist. The Gold and silver medalists would be thinking, “really?” |  |

Absolutely this.. seeing us in an FA Cup final would be the pinnacle for me. Winning it would be an out of body experience. |  | | |

FA Cup Final.
Playoff Final is a trophy for being the best of four teams not good enough to finish in the Top 2 of a Division full of teams that are not good enough to finish in the Top 20. |  |

F.A. Cup now doubt about it.
...but I love the playoffs, I hated the idea initially but now think they are greart - that Oldham semi-final will live long in the memory and produced an atmosphere that was incredible. | |

I’ve never experienced or seen an atmosphere like Oldham at LR in the playoff semi final. The ground was shaking. |  | | |

Thirded... the final day of the PL was tedious rubbish... even Jeff and the team failed to make it even slightly exciting.
The final day/evening of the Championship was superb... chalk and cheese..
FA Cup for me [Post edited 30 Jul 2020 22:05]

FA Cup Final always.
Still hurts that we didn't win the last one. | | | |

I don't even know what the argument for play off final would be. Maybe if you had a mega jammy cup run where you never played a side above you? Even then...
Whatever happens to Wigan they have 2012.
Would Portsmouth swap their Total Redknapping for cuplessness? Hmm. |  | | |

FA cup final, no question.
I enjoyed the play-off final because we won, not because I was happy we were going to be in the PL the following season. Could you imagine how shit the play-off would be if it wasn't at Wembley? |  | | |

What? Like if it was in Cardiff and you had to play Cardiff and their shit fans were taunting you as you queued for the bus back to the car park. yeah, that would be shit.
FA Cup final for me but Oldham was special, I remember after Furlong scored I phoned the wife and shouted "Listen to this!" and then held the phone in the air. I think she just laughed. Whenever I have to talk to fans of bigger clubs and they ask me about QPR, I catch a look of superiority (or pity?) in their eyes so I always retell the story of Oldham and start it with "Let me tell you about the greatest atmosphere the likes of which you will never experience, The Second Division, Play Off Semi Final, Second Leg". And after a few minutes of retelling the story I finish with "And that's! why I support QPR and why you will never, with all of your silverware, experience anything close to it and I wouldn't swap it for the world". That shuts them up. :-) |  | | |

Fulham are well aware of what the PL is like after being up there for some time. Brentford are not. The smaller clubs will always eventually go down, Bournemouth and Watford the latest after making a decent go of it for a while.
Sheff Utd and Burnley will follow despite current success. Not a question of if, but when. Also expecting it to be far from the fairytale Leeds fans may be expecting. | | | |

Thing is, for us fans we don’t get to see the cash. If previous experience is anything to go by all we see is mercenary has-beens looking for a last pay cheque and not giving a toss on the pitch.
An FA Cup final is the chance for 30k+ fans to get together and, hopefully, have a blast. |  | | |
