Holloway To Leave? >>> Holloway Sacked

If TF has any ambition now is the time to step up and prove to the fans that he wants to take the club forward. The 10 most significant things that I can remember under his stewardship have been:

1. Got rid of our most successful manager of recent times (twice)
2. Appointed Phillip Beard (the less said the better)
3. Appointed Mark Hughes (probably the worst manager we have ever had)
4. Appointed Harry Redknapp (gave us one of our greatest days when we won the Championship play off against Derby)
5. Approved spending that meant we broke FFP rules landing the club with a crippling fine
6. Got us relegated from the Premier League (twice)
7. Appointed Les Ferdinand as DoF (A QPR hero as a player but I have no idea how he now benefits the club)
8. Appointed Chris Ramsey (a nice guy but a poor manager)
9. Appointed JFH (why)
10. Constantly complains about the flak he receives (Read the above Tony and be thankful that you didn't buy your beloved West Spam because their fans might not be quite as forgiving as we have been!)

Not a great record IMHO and it's time for TF to step up to the plate and put his hand in his own pocket to make up for all the mistakes he has made. Can't see it happening tho. Unfortunately we are a club in decline and the fans are talking with their feet because the crowds are also in decline.

I would like a board of directors similar to ours just not the same.

If you have to write off 500m from a business/football club doesnt that mean it's' been poorly run by the people at the top.

Moving the debt from one line of the balance sheet to another line still means that the club is in debt. The best bit is that the people at the top have lost the money and tell us we should be thankful. It's just smoke and mirrors.

If you buy any company and run it poorly then you lose your money and you might never recoup  those losses. Run it well and you might make a profit. That's how a business works.

You are welcome to pick holes in the points made but they are all  facts!

Yes the club is in debt according to MR HOOS.
But as he also said by no means the amounts rumoured.
Because of what the directors did by taking shares.
The appointment of RAMSEY was a mistake but not his fault.
At the time I stated that it was LES who pushed him forward to TF.
That's why he was feeling so bad when he had to sack him.
But nobody would say a bad word about LET.
However I noticed that TF has said he could do better.

I accept JFH had to go because of his off field antics.(TF was being diplomatic when he said this had nothing to do with it.) 
But he had us 12th in the table and 60 points.
Not going backwards.

Oh definitely I agree with pamment8 and kingfisher that Ramsey is not to blame personally, I actually felt sorry for him at the time.

The club made two mistakes though; the first appointing him in the first place costing us any chance of survival, the second not getting rid of him that summer when it was clear he wasn't the man for the job. That second decision cost us any chance of coming straight back up.

Now we have a mountain to climb if we ever want a better chance of going back up again.

That probably read worse than you meant stoatey? Being realistic (which is difficult for any football club supporter) I do not see QPR as a Premier side anytime soon; and, conversely, I do not see QPR dropping to League One either. So we are talking about how well we would expect QPR to perform in the Championship, and it is here that I feel there is genuine concern. In my mind, based upon the club's structure/history/current team set-up we should have been a top half finisher this season, even Top 10. That would have meant an awful lot more goals scored and a lot less goals conceded - especially away from home! in fact, if we had drawn far more away games we lost then we would have certainly achieved a top half finish. Where do others think QPR should be - top or bottom or middle of the Championship, or even the PL or League One?

I agree with single, without any investment we are a team that will struggle to stay in the Championship. What makes things worse for me is when you hear the rubbish spouted by TF. In a recent interview he was asked how he'd assess his time with the Hoops, he said: "I think that's relative.

"From where we are right now, if I was to give an A,B,C,D; I'd say maybe a C+.

"I think we're heading in the right direction but I've always said this is not a sprint, it's a marathon. It's going to take a long time to get right.

He seems to have forgotten that when he took over we were a Premiership club and we were an A- or B+. If you go from an A- or B+ to a C+ that's not a very good direction to be heading.

I would suggest that with the likes of Smithies, Mass and Freeman all being looked at by other clubs we could start next season with a very young and inexperienced team.
