Just wanted to post a mail from Philip Beard which came this afternoon:
###XX, thank you from the board
THANK YOU
A communication from the club to fans often involves statements on club affairs or a marketing campaign to encourage you to buy the latest top or purchase tickets for the next game. It shouldn’t always be like that.
As a Board, sometimes we need to contact you just to say how grateful we are for your support. No sales tactic. No marketing ploy. Just thank you.
In January, the most difficult month of the year when it comes to finances, we hosted three games at Loftus Road in the space of eight days. And yet, your support for those fixtures against MK Dons, Manchester City and Norwich City was just incredible.
The noise you generated when we battled to a deserved draw against the champions of England was amazing.
We, as a Board, are tremendously appreciative of the effort and cost involved for you to attend those matches in such numbers.
We are hugely grateful, and that level of support – particularly the vociferous backing you gave Tony Fernandes – merely reaffirmed his belief that becoming involved with QPR was a fantastic decision.
As I’m sure you noticed, there has been a lot of media coverage afforded to our activity in the January transfer window. Our intention is clear. To stay in the Premier League.
And we believe the acquisitions of Tal Ben Haim, Loic Remy, Yun Suk-Young , Chris Samba, Andros Townsend and Jermaine Jenas have improved our chances of doing that.
Tony and the rest of the Board are completely committed to the future of this club. Despite what you may have read in the papers, the club is not facing financial ruin if we suffer relegation this season. All possible outcomes have been considered.
But right now our focus is on staying in the best league in the world. We believe we can achieve it. And it’s what you deserve.
So, on behalf of the Board, thank you.
Philip Beard, CEO
