The current mess of our club The way it’s been run the last few years The current manager and owners The prospect of league one and no imminent return Will there be any protests after our defeat against Blackburn Probably not They drown out the boos by turning the sound system up at the end

Loads of people posting stuff against the owners, Les, Lee etc on Twitter this week.
I think protests are planned for the Blackburn game.
They need to be careful what they wish for though. Yes our owners have made countless mistakes but without them this club would disappear. Their financial support is the only thing stopping the club falling into a financial black hole.
Shame that we can’t attract a new rich owner QPR is a nice little club as we all know Yes without their financial backing we would crumble but they can’t run a p&ss up in a brewery I also heard protests at the Blackburn game Most fans don’t want to moan I think most are just concerned about the mess this club is in and going from top of the league to relegation candidates all of a suddden

^ This.
Many clubs have been run into the ground by iffy/egotistical/devious owners. Our owners take a £2 million bath every month to keep the club running. We are anything but a sound investment for any potential owner, even if they existed. Even if a new millionaire owner was ever found, FFP prevents financial doping of the team, so very little would change in terms of the staff and more importantly playing squad.
The owners have made mistakes sure enough - every owner has - but our current situation is largely down to Weasel Beale walking, the players he brought here downing tools or suddenly inflicted with mystery injuries, and no strength in depth in the squad (just like under Warburton, when the team fell out of the promotion places largely due to a catalogue of injuries to major players).
I agree Rosco Beale certainly affected the players And i also mainly blame him for this mess Example we had a great player called willock when Beale was here and now willock isn’t the same player since Beale left

The only reason the owners have to stump up money each month to keep the club running is because they wasted 100's of millions when we were in the Premiership.
The club is a shambles and ever since the owners took over we have been financially mismanaged. They talk of a new stadium but don't want to actually make any investment. The new training facilities only came about because of investment from fans who gave their money to the club by way of unsecured loans.
The owners know that they can't lose because as owners of the Stadium they have a very attractive asset. TF and his mates have always known that they could sell the ground tomorrow and make hundreds of millions from turning the site into housing.
IMO The West Ham supporting owners have minimal interest in QPR FC they are more interested in the asset that is the Stadium and the land it's on. With property prices in London rising every year the Stadium and the new training ground will be worth a fortune.
