Harry Ultimatum!

[vespa]

Personally i would rather we dont look for a short term fix of signing old players , and we should rebuild from the ground upwards . If that means not going up in our first season ,so be it. Bridge still has a season or so left in him and agreed ,he probably is a good player attitude wise to have around , but i fear its only papering over the cracks.

Who are you to accuse any fan of being deluded when you don't back up your claim that TF is behind every transfer to build the global brand? Provide your evidence and people will believe you. If not, then you have no right to have a dig at any supporter when you're ranting and raving.

If the bigger picture is a new music venue as you claim, why is he bothering to spend a fortune building a new training ground and investing in the team? Why doesn't he save himself the aggro and just build a new music venue?

You've even accused TF of paying off government officials thereby libelling him. If he so chose, he could sue you and you'd have to provide evidence to support your claims. It would be very easy to track you down.

Start backing your claims with hard evidence or belt up!

My feeling after seeing the sky interview is he is getting resistance from signing bridge due to his age. I really think the powers that be have listened to the many of us fans that know we need fresh young blood with the hunger to succeed and its a valid point.
The transfer policy or lack there of has been an utter disaster for so long now, i for one applaud them toughening up if this is happening as i think bridge is not the answer to our predicament although he is a good player but for how long and what cost?
The aim is promotion, and as quick as possible. But this time with largely keeping the same team that is promoted unlike the last 2 disastrous years. NO TO BRIDGE!

F*ck me.... god help us if the club listen to fans on what they want......What's the point in hiring a manager then. Were you happy with HH?.....Paul Furlong?.....Ray Wilkins?...Ryan Nelsen?
It's not about age it's about attitude & fitness imo. A team needs a mix, Derry & Hill came in under Warnock and for me those 2 along with Kenny were the reason we went up, they added grit, determination and
experience to our team. Tony must let Harry manage or we'll continue on our downward spiral

If it is true that Beard is in charge of transfers, then he does have a very valid point.
Afterall, wasnt it Beard who negotiated the deals for all of Hughes pre-season signings. He agreed their over inflated wages.

Redknapp is correct in saying that Beard and the Board are not football people (they have proved this over the last two seasons (most would have kept faith in Warnock to see if he could have reversed QPR's poor form).

As for signing Bridge, he is better at left back than Traore and a better option that Hill. The South Korean left back may not be up to the standard just yet and may need a season to do so. This would mean a 2 year deal for Bridge could be just what is needed.

Redknapp is also correct in saying that he should have no interference, as it is him who will be judged on the team's results.

A lot of people were happy with Beard in the beginning but think that has slowly begun to turn.

He's a businessman like Tony.....brought on board for one thing and one thing only.



"Philip Beard has an exemplary international business career in which he has launched companies around the world, managed and leveraged global brands, and delivered first-rate commercial results. He is a strong and inspirational leader with outstanding communication and presentation skills. A powerful team player with a strong track record of creating teams and motivating individuals to ensure they perform beyond expectations. Philip has an exceptional record of negotiating long-term commercial partnerships with many of the world’s leading companies. He has been involved in 3 highly successful international businesses; a founding partner of Air Miles International, a senior member of the successful London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic bid team in 2005, and CEO of The O2 where he led a team to re-launch the Millennium Dome as a world-leading entertainment destination. Under his leadership The O2 was transformed from white elephant to the world’s number one music arena. In August of this year Philip embarked on his latest challenge when he became CEO of Queens Park Rangers Football Club as part of a takeover of the club. QPR is in the Barclays Premier League for the first time in 15 years. Philip’s short term aim is to consolidate the clubs position in the top league with the long term ambition to build a new sports stadium for the club in the White City area"

Good post. Just give him a budget and then let him move players about how he wants.

i really dont know what to think... just hope whatever i sgoing on be sorted quickly as we dont need this to drag on close to beginning of season....

[SuperHoopNik]

I don't mind Beard and them lot, I think what this football club needs is a football person upstairs to help them out. Warnock wants a job like this why not bring him in?

A lot of people have been saying just that for quite a while now. The need for it is glaringly obvious really.

[kron-1664]

Beards a boring business man , let Arry boy get on with it. Hes like warnock ,knows what it takes to get a winning side.

[Loneranger80]

Daily Mirror reporting Bridge has signed for Reading.... maybe this will cause a few further problems...
