Ask if there is any plans for an Acadamy ?

From SM's interview with paladini:

"A lot of fans have been crying out for us to gain academy status, will this ever happen?

We want an academy at QPR. Amit desperately wants that as well, but there are complications with trying to get it in our current situation.

What’s wrong with our current situation?

To gain an academy status, you have to have an undercover pitch within the training complex. We have the facilities to do this, but we don’t own Harlington. This makes having this pitch a big problem. If we ever moved from Harlington training ground, we could potentially lose the status that we spent so much money on trying to get. There are also issues with building this pitch on ground that doesn’t belong to us.

But Amit is keen for us to have our own youth academy, and we have been in contact with both Harlington and the FA on how we go about it. This will happen, the wheels are in motion."
