Don't think seen anything re any possible QPR increase.
(I think when VAT was lowered, QPR didn't lower prices. So logically, could argue won't raise them with a VAT increase)

VAT TICKET PRICE INCREASE
Posted on: Wed 10 Nov 2010
Yeovil Town FC has announced an increase in individual ticket prices of £1 with effect from 1 January 2011 to cover the rise in VAT scheduled for the New Year.
Explaining the reasons behind the price increase, Chief Executive Martyn Starnes said "Obviously we would have preferred not to have increased prices at this difficult time in the economic cycle but unfortunately we cannot afford to absorb the rise in the VAT rate imposed by the Treasury.
"By providing early notice of this pricing decision we feel our supporters can mitigate or avoid the effect of the increase by purchasing their tickets for any League game in the New Year before the 31 December 2010 at current prices.
"A pre VAT increase half season ticket will also be available covering all home League matches from 26 December 2010 and this will offer excellent value for the second half of the season."
He went on to add "We currently have one of the lowest average ticket prices in League 1 and there are at least seven clubs in League 2 charging higher prices.
"Although we changed the pricing structure a couple of years ago we haven't introduced an overall price increase for several seasons and this rise of £1 does not make us expensive in comparison to our competitors.
" It is our intention to hold match day prices for the 2011/2012 season at 1 January 2011 levels but in the meantime I hope our fans will take the opportunity of buying their tickets in advance of the VAT increase"
