QPR in the News - Thu, 3 Sep 2015

So you know how the 4 years under TF and Co have felt then

You might not have liked the last four years but one thing I don't think ANYBODY could claim is that they have been boring!

Tony has made huge number of mistakes and been very naive, no question, but my only advice is be careful what you wish for - some "fans" swore at and spat at Chris Wright and his family, so he walked away - and left us almost bankrupt. Unless anyone knows a nice friendly QPR fan with a couple of hundred million to chuck at our hobby probably best to take the positives from the owner we do have imho...

Since that owner has made us unsaleable , I guess we will have to!

It looks like some people have forgot what was happening at the club the 4 years before the last 4 years.
It wold be a good idea to google the Briatori, Ecclestone, Paladini times running our club.

Oh I remember those times very well.
Stupid decisions and purchases, financial losses,
mediocre performances on the pitch and
constant uncertainty about our future.

No, wait, all of this is still going on.

Kirill i admire you (and hitmans) determination to vocally (in type) detest the way the club is run, but please could you give me one example of 'no wait all this is still going on' mate.

The most recent and glaring example:
the Board wanted to sell Austin.

Also what must be considered is the wages we pay.
Over the last four years, our ludicrously high wages has worked against us ie unable to get rid of the likes of SWP, Cesar ..etc etc during windows.

My thoughts are for once our ridicously high wages have worked in our favour this window. From what I can gather Chaz is on a minimum of £35k p/w possibly £50k p/w ...once your on a massive wage it's hard to move to go down or equal. Clearly if by jan we are going up we will improve his contract, I'm not sure any of the other contenders interested in him can match or better what we are offering and thus as with fer, Philips etc it makes it easier to stay.

I understand when Zaha went from palace to Utd, he was offered £35k p/w by Utd ...we offered Luke Young that amount.

remember seeing luke young shopping in wimbledon villiage him and his mrs had so many bags they were struggling

Selective hating , Austin wanted to remain in the premiership so the board put an unrealistic high price tag on him that no club would or did match to ensure he stayed put as he has done. You will have to do better than that to win anyone round to a 'sack the board' mentality imo, cos we have some brilliant new players and are joint second on points thus far.
Steam to the 'stadium' thread someone's just started to stir up some forum unrest at this time of mass happiness, that should help..
