Warburton Gone - Official

those elusive top 6 places were up for grabs for a few teams 
and we should have had got one of those really the way we were playing 
but somehow luton and sheffield united got one of them,forest and huddersfield no surprise 
but blackburn and coventry like us were flying at some point boro and west brom should of done better 
and even millwall nearly sneaked a play off spot 
the championship takes no prisoners you have to perform week in week out 
even with our poor run we still didnt finish that far outside points wise a play off spot 
its so frustrating knowing if we just performed better against teams like peterborough and barnsley we would of been looking forward to our first play off game right now 

If the club aren’t efficient at producing talent now, which I’d agree they probably aren’t, it suggests there are a few notable problems aside from the obvious that they aren’t picking up the best talent. That 1) The academy should possibly be scrapped as they’re getting below par players, 2) the standard of coaches isn’t good enough. Football is game and one of skill, it can be taught, people learn how to play. If the players are below their peers then it’s the coaches job to get them up to scratch, which evidently they aren’t doing, 3) If they are losing out on local talent then they’re aren’t expanding their net wide enough. Sussex has two professional teams, Kent has one, there are players there that are going unnoticed because of the lack of outlets. Look beyond London. 4) Perhaps the club has a one dimensional idea of what a ‘football player’ is, perhaps they should step away from that and try to produce a variety of player, 5) The club may also have neglected the fact that you don’t just produce footballers for you own team, you produce footballers for football — one teams idea of a player is different to another’s. So if they aren’t getting in our team cash in on them. 6) if the current crop aren’t good enough, then why are there so many players on our academy/Under 23 books? What’s the point in them
? Theyre taking up budget money and damaging their own careers by rotting in somebody’s academy 🤷‍♂️

word has it that its a done deal 
warburton will be birmingham boss

The fact is he was always going to walk into a new Championship job because he's a bloody good manager at this level. Birmingham will know he guarantees them a good style of football and no worry of relegation, what's not to like.

I found the following post on FB site 'QPR Home & Away' from Jose Lara (a sports psychologist) which makes a claim to know what happened:


Not sure whether to believe it or not! If Mark Warburton delivered promotion next season then the club would make £200m(?) so that would be a small price to pay; but why could the club have not linked any contract extension and bonuses to achieving that promotion?

That is the biggest load of nonsense I've ever read. I have no idea who Jose Lara is, but he sure knows how to make up some rubbish!

£3.5 million a year is £67,000+ per week. As if QPR would pay that for a manager and as if Warburton would ask for that. He's not going to get that at any club.

I doubt he was even on the stated current £1 million a year because it is widely believed our salary limit is around £10-15,000 so why would we be paying the manager double that?

I guess we will never know the full SP on what happened....
