Are the Board..Pinning Too Much faith In Warnock?

[acricketer]

Look at what Warnock did when he took over with relegation a distinct possibility. Imagine what's possible when he's got a whole season ahead of him and some money to spend!

[Fez]

Pete it's the managers job to pick and motivate a team of course they should put all their faith in him! Not doing so is exactly what got us into the **** in the first place!

I'm not bowled over by the signings of Mackie and Clarke but not every player in the squad can be first class. Warnock should know a lot more about football than we do and therefore we should be greatful to have a highly rated manager and trust in him to get things right. Let's at least give him a chance to ge things right, I can see it now, lose first game of the season and it will be 'Warnock Out' from some members!

Maybe Neils using our excellent pre-season games as a lure.
But then again we could be playing these teams as Neil is hoping to find a player from one of them knowing they will be cheap.

I would sooner pin all our faith in Warnock than that clown Paladini.

What was the point in bringing Warnock to the club if you don't put all your faith in him to a job?????

[Nodge70]

Sounds like Paladini's redundant transfer finger is getting itchy!

Please remember we are QPR and not Barca or Real Madrid!! We have one of the Best managers in the Championship. He knows how this league works - he knows how to get out of it and he knows a lot about the players and teams who play in it. I agree with some of the other posters - Why are we already questioning this when the players he has bought so far havent even kicked a ball for QPR! We are judging players who have played for different managers, in different teams!

We wanted stability and at the first chance of having it we are already trying to rock the boat............Patience, I know that doest sit well with many on here but Warnock has a plan, and im sure that is shared by Amit and Ishan, just because we have no idea what it is (for once) people are getting a bit twitchy!

Its the start of June, The transfer window officially opens on 1st July. Im aware that other teams are buying players,

If we cant put all our faith in Warnock who on earth are we supposed to put our faith in?

'WE' are QPR!

Didn't take long did it??

[Goddard]

A lot of players, managers and agents are on holiday right now... it's the best time for them to go away, before all the wheels start turning on deals, pre-season training starts, etc..

I really think that quite a few fans on here should calm the f**k down, and have a little holiday too.
Or they're going to drive themselves mental, worrying and analysing every single web-article and post from "ITK's"(!) from May 'till August.

Clearly, if they think that Warnock can produce promotion on a shoestring (by amongst other things turning Leon Clarke and Mackie into 15+goal scorers) then they are placing far too much faith in Warnock. Warnock (like many managers) can undoubtedly squeeze some added value from some players. But even with those he can only do so much. He needs to get something to work with and that means buying some quality.

Personally I think (and hope) the board know this and will give him some tools to do the job before we kick off. But we don't know that yet so can't really answer this question. Only one thing is clear at the moment: if he is left with what he's got he hasn't got enough to do anything other than struggle for safety so they'd would clearly have to be of the opinion that Warnock is a miracle worker if they think he can pull off a promotion run with current personnel. Sadly, he aint a miracle worker.

oo scarlet you are a one...dear

Okay, I know its early and I suspect by the start of the new season we will have a completely new fresh side, but I suspect it won't be about spending money on it.

I am under no illusions that the board are putting all their eggs into one basket in firmly believing that Neil Warnock is the best signing they could ever have. The only reservation I have, come Christmas if Plan A is yet again not working, will we rue the lessons that we have not learn't from previous seasons??

Its obvious we need a proven goalscorer, even two to make a concerted push for promotion.

Personally, I feel we are miles away from candidates for automatic promotion, have no more than a fairly good chance of the Play Offs. Teams that get out of this division automatically do so with a sizeable budget, others can do it on a team spirit like Burnley and Blackpool have shown in previous seasons. The problem with that, the way our board and support is structured we expect more, to me I'm guessing we are a long way off feeling united behind the club, even though we are far better position under Amit, ishan and co, than we ever were under Flavio. The Likes of Burnley and Blackpool come with a underdog tag, so promotion to their fans is a bonus, to us we seem to expect it due to the rich people we have behind the club.

The problem I have with Warnock is he is a very good salesman type of manager, if we the fans were not led to believe we would investing heavily in players, we would have taken it on the chin and accept it.

When you hear comments like " I can't wait to end of season, when i get the players I want" and then you get Mackie and Clarke then obviously fans feel a little cheated. I would much prefer the club just to get on with it and actually surprise us with a buy, then we can all be excited.

I guess this summer will see a number of incomings and outgoings but I do not expect us to break the bank, in fact I see all backing to the manager in the belief he is the man for the job, time will tell if they have got it right.

Hhhmmm, is this the start of a anti Warnock campaign due to people being frozen out or they don't like what is happening ? I might be wrong but it kinda smells of it as last year it was a case of give them 10-15 games and already, two months before the season starts, we have "and then you get Mackie and Clarke"

[PeterG]

If they are putting all thier faith in Warnock as the manager then that is absolutely the right thing to do, they must also back him 100% financially and we the supporters must support him at least for a reasonable period of time to allow his plans to pan out.

I suggest anyone getting stressed out by the lack of transfer activity and or rmours regarding top players simply takes a holiday from message boards for at least a month and come back again when pre season starts.

We are in a a more comfortable position financially and we are backing the current board are we not so let them get on with it i say. come october if it all looks pear shaped then thats the time to be concerned.

Now is not the time for either agitation or agitators

[qblockpete]

w12 ranger I have every confidence in Warnock, just i would like a couple good centre forwards, not blaming him for that.

You yourself felt we were doing things on the cheap, unless of course you have now changed your mind?

[PeterG]

its a bit early to start worrying though isnt it, Pete last year you were telling people to chill halfway through August when they were going on about signing a decent striker!
