Just feel sick to my stomach over all this

Swanley, sorry to hear about your Dan falling off the wagon, but where did you see that comment from BE?

It was in the interview with him in one of the papers a few days ago (sorry, can't remember which one) -- he said that, if we were in the Championship next season that they would find the money to get us out for sure, and that, if we were in the Prem, the money would be available to fund (hopefully) a top four finish as soon as possible.
It was the same interview where he said he left early to beat the traffic and wouldn't spend silly money, but careful spending on player who would fit the gaps, so to speak.

blimey he sounds hard work.

U don't have it easy no wonder yesterday was a bad day.

He needs a job to sort him out.

Anyway I feel better about QPR today and I still think it will only be a fine.

In fairness to Pete,he is a VERY positive person and on this board anyway nearly always looks on the bright side,so i dont read much into that im afraid,i TOO am now worried,very worried,our whole season could be destroyed because of one person.If guilty this person should quit immediatly,he would be foolish not to as he would face a lynch mob should we lose out on our title or worse promotion!

Finally someone placing the blame where it should be. So many people on here blaming the fa, the media, other clubs, when the fault lies at someone within QPR. Blaming the FA is laughable, they obviously have good reason to investigate this, so are doing so. This is their job. If rules are being broken it is up to them to investigate and to punish if guilty. Unfortunately sympathy for the fans and the players can not affect the FA, decision when deciding on a punishment if found guilty. Simply because every club has its fans and players, meaning every club could break these rules and expect minimal punishment, expecting the FA to have sympathy for the fans and players.

Its a harsh reality that if the club is found guilty the club should be punished and it will likely be a points deduction at best. A fine would simply make a mockery of the FA's justice system. From everything i have read it is looking like the club have broke the rules and that it was deliberate also. The blame can go no further than our management and whoever it was that made the decision to take the risk.

I think you will find most of us understand that someone at our club has ballsed up and should go if found guilty but are you honestly telling me, you think the FA are blameless, when they have left this until the day before the end of the season to judge it ? Get real this should have been dealt with months ago and what if we are found not guilty, then our promotion celebrations will have been ruined and they don't come around that often now do they.
The FA have ****ed up big time too and the way other teams Managers have behaved is quite ludicrous, any 'normal' football fan would not wish the way we have been treated on any other football fan.
Unfortunately too the media have just stirred the **** and comments should have been left until after the hearing, particularly those like Keys and Gray who do have an influence within the football world, whether we like it or not.

Paladini should face FA sanctions, the club possibly fined, but no way should NW, the players, the fans, amit, et al, no way should those innocent of any wrongdoing be punished in any way, shape, or form.
Justice would be made to look dumb, as well as blind.

By that logic any club who have wealthy owners can break rules left right and centre, playing as many inelligable players as they want, aiding them to winning trophies and championships (with which come huge amounts of prize money) only to have the owner fined. That is hardly a punishment is it? Its buying titles in a purer form than Chelsea have done.

I do to an extent think this should have been dealt with by the FA befor now. But i cant help but feel the reason they have left it so late is so that the punishment has minimal affect on the squads performance during the season, particularly if the punishment is a huge points reduction or at worst relegation. How would this have affected their own players approach to remaining matches and what impact would that have had on the points earned by the teams they later played who could have had an unfair advantage playing against a team that had psychologically imploded. Far more sensible to delay any announcement so that everyone assumes no points will be deducted, so the chasing pack give it their all and assume that 3rd place misses auto-promotion, and 7th place misses the play-offs. This would ensure that no one can have any complaints of unfair advantage when a decision is made.

I hate what is happening, and hope we are found not guilty and escape any punishment obviously. And i wouldnt wish it on any other fan, i didnt wish a points deduction on Luton, i didnt wish a points deduction on Leeds, or plymouth, or dundee, or tourquay or hereford, or any other clubs fans who have been punished with points deductions for off field matters. But it is a punishment that is taken much more seriously than a fine and in my opinion is the only suitable punisment!

Well, I would argue, alternatively, on that theory, that any points deduction now would give a psychological advantage to Leeds over other teams that have played us already as they will know what is required against a demoralised team that wasn't before and have a better chance of gaining 3 points against us.
