Haven't seen it yet but am told that what you see is what our manager/s have had to put up with. Briatore being and egotistical twat and Paladini just as bad. How Warnock got us promoted is shown to be even more amazing. Sousa was shafted because of those two's ego.

That Ecclestone, Briatrore and Paladini have left the club has been a real blessing.

 

 

Real good watch if you managed to see it, downloaded it from a torrent site the other weekend, only 300 odd MB's, well wroth the watch. Quite inciteful.

We will never fully decide who has won the football.

I have yet to see it. 

Now that I have gotten my password issue solved, let's catch up.... Joey Barton is a friggen pratt whom I hope QPR gift to West Ham. Tevez is just as bad and he did throw the first punch 9From a camera catching the action from behind). However his behaviour there after has given the club a bad stain. As our Captain, he needed to show better form than that. His cards and suspensions have cost us a lot this last season. The sooner he is sacked, the better.

SWP is another that can go, against City he showed exactly why I call him the Headless chicken. he and Barton do have a few things in common. Neither can cross, take a decent corner, take a decent free kick, tackle, hold talking players off, pass short passess, pass long passes, head (Although SWP is only 4'6")...have I left anything out? Oh and they both cost the club a friggen fortune in wages.

I never thought I would see this but hey. 1 good season would be nice. One nice guy off the field. hopefully he'll chin Barton and get the Captaincy. See we got Johnson on a free and Diaketi is meant to be almost a done deal.

Following up on your comment from yesterday LG, do you reckon Nelsen is a chance of getting the captaincy at QPR? Given Barton's extended absence and that Nelsen is a known quantity to Hughes, it would seem to make a bit of sense to me. 

However, I don't really know anything about the team dynamics of QPR, so would be interested in hearing your opinion.

Barton fined half a million pounds by QPR and stripped of his captaincy - so I'd say the odds of Ryan being captain just got shorter

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

A club statement confirmed: "Following a full internal investigation, Queens Park Rangers Football club can confirm Joey Barton has been fined six weeks' wages and will no longer be club captain

I imagine that must have hurt!

(not the 6 weeks or loss of captaincy)

From Ryans Rovers to Ryans Rangers. Would be nice to see him get the captaincy. He might believe it should go to someone younger though seeing as this is not likely to be a long term deal.

Must win, imo, v Toffees next Monday (our time). Sparky can't afford to go much longer without a win. Sure he has Tony's support but if QPR are still bottom come mid-November, I think there'll be massive pressure from the board to sack him.

Come on you Rrrrrsss!

17 Oct 00:46

The last person I would want is Harry. Too old. I'd prefer a younger and more ambitous manager, Ole Gunnar S would be my choice should Hughes get the shove. However off the field he's been helping getting everything else changed and set up for the better for QPR. The players just need to come to the party. On paper we have a decent enough squad but it isn't "happening". We're short of a youngish decent CD to partner Nelsen - whom in my unbiased opinion has been our best defender performing to date this season

Hey QPR fans, every Thursday morning after news and sport at 8am, Shaun Derry takes calls from Radio Sport listeners.  So dial in and talk to a premier league player (at least for this season)

Cheers, sadly, Derry is past his prime - last season. The legs are no longer there and he's a bit part player now. Wish we had signed him when he was around 24. Still he did excell himself last season. I hope the club offer him some sort of coaching role as he is a leader and good to have in a dressing room for morale.

Hughes is such a terrible manager, about time.

And we know Harry likes Nelsen, so might let him keep the captain's armband.

He did very well with Wales and Blackburn. But he seems to have lost the plot when he has had money to spend.
24 Nov 11:47

 Ah well they have Redknap now, could be good news for Nelsen too, might have a chance to hang around a bit longer. Could be a lot worse to be fair, QPR couldve appointed Benitez ...

I honestly think he is one of the most over-rated guys out there.

Three for me, and two for them.

26 Nov 07:25

I would have loved and preferred OGS - young, talented, ambitious. sadly, we've got Redknapp. Still miles better than someone like small Sam, Curbishley etc. Now time for the players to pull their collective fingers out of their arses. Only two who've really tried to make an effort this season are Taarabt and Nelsen - my two nominations for POTY at QPR. Interesting times await, hopefully some wins starting at Sunderland. Dodgy keeper, Dodgy keeper!!

I think he will do well for you.  Regardless of his ego, he is a good manager and I would be surprised if he didn't results for you.

QPR are deep in a relegation battle - the last thing they need to do is sign Beckham lol. He only plays about half the games in an MLS season, has massive wages and what does he really offer beyond media opportunities at his age? I'd say it's just standard Harry hype.
