I think its a planning application for a new bus terminal ,to aleviate the congestion of managers coming and going from Loftus Road

Am I reading too much into it but,F1 is back on BBC!! Wouldn't have anything to do with it.....surely?

He done a deal with BBC before a home game to host FI, while dumping ITV when they had a year to go on the contact the had with Bernie.

Did he get first refusal on land he wanted, i would put my house on it as BBC were talking about closing offices and selling land and since the F1 agreement, they stopped.

This was all things that did occur fella so your not going mad. This is why the BBC have moved alot of their TV production facilities up to Manchester

Made me laugh on this day of doom and gloom

Right I'm posting this for some validation. Some on here must live on White City Estate and hopefully might be able to explain in more detail. He goes, it's a bit sketchy and hopefully someone on here can explain in more detail as this info has come to me third hand (so I'm worried about Chinese whispers and all that).

Yesterday I heard some very interesting news concerning the BBC offices, BBC Park, Hammersmith & Fulham Council and some blocks of flats on White City. Batman Close residents have held a series of meeting with the council about being relocated because the club is interested in purchasing the land off the council. Relocation sums have been offered to all residents as a means to get them to move out and the coucil will also help relocate then. BBC Park is to be relocated or moved within the surrounding area as part of this massive project. H&F have mentioned the club as the spearhead of all these development proposal.

Am I a few weeks late with this news? Can anyone else possibly explain in more detail?

Surely if true it can only mean a new stadium and if so only the Mittals or Benie could afford to do this. I am sure I've heard somewhere that Bernie holds some of the land rights to the BBC's ground which he leases back to them?

Find it unlikely TBH, I know the Tories want to start a slum clearance in White City if they get in, relocating residents to Northolt /Greenford and selling the land of to private developers.

I think i know what this story relates to, PM for more details if you want.

maybe he's gonna move into f1 go karting and build a track there

Other way round, surely

what the hell is the point in building a new stadium, when we cant fill loftus road??

What Dazzer has posted ........ I heard something along those lines at the start of LAST SEASON some 15 months ago, that included the TA, Hammersmith Park on SAR and the BBC offices that back onto Hammmersmith Park! Bernie was mentioned re owning BBC land, but I didn't hear anything about Batman Close.
This is the first I've heard of this type of proposal, if thats the right word, since then.

I know we all care about the fortunes of Queens Park Rangers FC, we all crave QPR information each and every day, which is why the MB's thrive, it's all part of todays football - Don't matter if you've followed the R's for 50 years or 1 year ..... when the cards are down we, as supporters of QPR, all bleed HOOPS!

Right now HMS Loftus is sinking fast, the press I guess, love the QPR manager merry-go-round ...... I don't know one Rangers fan who gets pleasure from seeing the farce of manager after manager, come in/out the revolving door at HQ ..... all I hear from QPR fans, myself included, is we're a joke!

Talk of a new ground ....... at this time ........ phew!!!! I'm lost for words, as I've added to this thread.

The manager situation has to be sorted first and foremost, stability within the playing staff and also internal staff, so everyone at Loftus Road is pulling in the right direction, and that includes us as Rangers fans ..... A manager who is given full control of comings and goings in the transfer market. Until QPR have an established man on a non Micky Mouse contract, who's allowed to manage our club the way he wants to ......... the rest is just a dream, or should I say ... a nightmare!

Flavio, Bernie, Gianni and The Mittals ..... please sit down all together, no more knee jerk reactions ...... spend YOUR MONEY and get QPR a top manager to make our wonderful football club move in the right direction! Of late, all we see is a smoking revolver! .... I'm going off to work now, and the word I'm useing for my own feeling about QPR is .... depressed!!

Would be easier to attract new fans if we had a stadium with better facilities. Also, we will never be able to expand loftus road, so at some point in the future we'll need to move. Would much prefer White city over heathrow and should go for it if chance happens to buy the land.

Perhaps we are down sizeing.

[qprmarc]

hope we get a new stadium

[cross it Dave]

Dazzer, thanks for that, the sort of news I've been waiting for for a long time, I hope your right.

One of the ways QPR will move forward as a club is with better facilities.

Loftus Rd, I'm very sad to say has had it day.

I for one certainly don't know what is happening behind the scenes at the club at this moment or any other, but on paper we all know the money is potentially there, let's hope that it is matched by the will to drive us forward.

Something that has just sprung to mind, weren't those flats in Batman Close being refurbished of late?, not that would mean anything if the council wants to sell the land to QPR.

Please keep us updated if you can on this one, as it is better than reading all about Paladini and who said what and when.
