Okay, Warnock does a great job with very little financial clout in the championship and if we follow in the styles of Stoke or Bolton we need to spend some money.
We had a great season finishing champions, but this was due in the main to Neil Warnock who created a great untiy amongst the players. Its all well and good saying that Ramage, Hall and Helguson are with us for the duration, but we need more, much more to survive.
Last season it was obvious Warncok wanted Walters and right up to the last minute he was coming to Loftus Road up to the point where Stoke offered the cash up front, then the deal was dead in the walters. A few weeks ago we were odds on favourites to capture the signature of Graham from Watford, only to see Swansea go a little over the odds to ensure he will playing premiership for them next season.
I like the players Jimmy Bullard and DJ Campbell, but we need more much more. Its okay saying "don't worry we know what we are doing", the reality is other clubs who finished behind us in the championship have already done far more in the transfer market than we have.
its a dangerous game waiting for last minute bargain buys and players who fit into our salary cap. We need to realise the gulf between the championship[ and premiership is huge and we need a very good pre-season where all the players are gelling together. If we are not careful we could be down by November , we need quality players who have experience of the premiership.
The club heirachy have secured a nice little financial earner for the club being in the premiership and they need to show all QPR fans they mean business. We already have a split fanbase due to what they perceive to be going on upstairs.
What is needed is some positive PR to get the fans all behind the team, for what will be our hardest challenge for a very long time.
Lets secure some good players, get the fans onside and actually get them to feel its money well spent to see a good quality set of players who can keep us in the premiership.
What I am seeing so far is lack of real intent to invest in our long term premiership future.
