- Confirmed it was 12 candidates who were interviewed, that were then whittled down to 3, with JFH eventually being the outstanding one. The process was done quietly and privately behind the scenes. Very mindful to avoid it being played out in public, no more QPR circus etc.
- With the squad we have he confirmed that play-offs is still the target, and was the reason why CR was let go. But he stressed that JFH would not be harshly judged if that isn't achieved this season.
- Neil told Les and TF that he'd commit to the club for 8 weeks the day after CR was sacked, which gave them the time to find the right man without having to make a rushed appointment.
- Limited funds will be made available in January but only if needed for minor tweaks to the squad - nothing major and no more spending for the sake of it.
- Explained the reasoning behind the rolling contract. The days of handing out long contracts to managers are over. It's more about the long-term vision and philosophy of the club and having managers fit in to that. JFH agreed and wanted the same.

The R’s suffered their first defeat in four games on Monday night, losing out to Brentford in W12, but the boss insists that there will be no sign of a hangover when they walk out at Elland Road.
“It’s a demanding league; the games come thick and fast so you can’t be sitting there and feeling sorry...-

“We have got to set the highest possible standards for ourselves. We gave away a really sloppy goal against Blackburn. From 4-1 and cruising, we survived a warning shot and we were loose and we have got to recognise that and be better.
“It was a good win going into the break; four goals, four different scorers and more goals for our front two. It was great for Brighty and Ebs [to score] too but we were loose on too many occasions.”
Following the Blackburn...-

Final match before the annoying international break, both sides not in the best of RECENT form heading into this one. We failed to beat Luton and Forest at HOME, but from our point of view, I am hoping our AWAY DAYS are much more lucky.
Been impressed with QPR's start to the season, as I was worried about the amount of new faces coming in. However they have hit the ground running and are scoring plenty or goals and have been in amongst the top end of the table for the most part of...-

“The fact of the matter is we have lost a game of football and it hurts. If it doesn’t hurt then you shouldn’t be in the game. The good thing is we have a very swift chance to make amends.”
MARK Warburton admits he and his squad are hurting following Saturday’s defeat – but they welcome the early opportunity to “make amends” when they visit Cardiff City on Wednesday night.
After four consecutive wins, QPR lost 2-0 against...-

Also how do you know Rowett didn't want the job, he must be bored going for interviews for jobs he don't want eh.
As for Rowett, he confirmed he wuld be staying with Birmingham weeks ago when linked to the Fulham job.
Oh and every manager says they don't want the job when they are already at a club, they are contractually obliged to say nothing but that.
You are making stuff up and believing what you want to believe to suit your agenda.
