    Ravel

    To think I mocked Tony Fernandez for not making a serious play for us.

    QPR have Redknapp manager in the Prem, thinking about flair players like Morrison whilst they can call back the likes of Remy from his loan spell.

    We have Allardyce, heavily supported by Gold and Brady and this amazing A?20mil war chest.

    How things have changed very quickly.

    Won't miss it until this (unts gone and hopefully a buy-out on the horizon.

    Those predicting the plod by the board, the money train and the unambitious run into Stratford were so right.

    Always admire them fronting the dough but it's been grim for a while now and have mostly lost my support. Sully wants change but has taken the advice of Gold (ffs) and Brady who after the acolade of seeing us into Stratford, will depart to run for Boris' job or that of a Tory MP most likely. Very quiet of late, ain't she. - [url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2639898/Queens-Park-Rangers-set-discuss-Ravel-Morrison-transfer-club-meeting.ht

    re: Ravel

    I'm not big on predictions but I've been consistent on this. . . . . . . .Morrison will be sold and we will start next season will Nolan supporting Carroll despite what everyone is saying about attacking football. We might even sign Zarate but don't hold your breath waiting for Sam to play him.


    As for Fernandes I firmly believe we've dodged a bullet. He doesn't have enough personal wealth to bankroll West Ham so would have saddled us with bank debt which he's not had to do at QPR due to the Billionaire shareholders already being in place. His first attempt at running a football club has been a complete disaster and has mirrored his F1 team which is a complete joke.

    I agree with your comments about the Chuckle Brothers WHU, but it will be interesting to see how Fernandes and Harry cope with a 50m fine and a transfer embargo if the PL have the balls to follow it through.

    re: Ravel

    Since when have we been ambitious? We've never had the money to be ambitious. This current board have shown more ambition than any previous board of living memory. Yes they're being steady so they can sell and I really can not see what the big deal is with some of the fans that don't want that.
    Dont want SuGo but dont want them to sell us either.

    probably right mate, just extremely frustrated at the snails plod that is WHUFC just shy of Stratford

    I can hand on heart say Im very happy with the owners and that I have no issue with them buying us just to make a few quid, none whatsoever!
    Where has all the money gone? I presume you mean the money that they get of the prem league if so then there is Wage bills, the BFC wages alone is huge then the players are on much more. Ticket sales and merchandise is peanuts in comparison to what the outgoings are.
    Unlike the rest of the prem who are all running at a loss I dont believe we are.
    Make my mind up! My position has not changed one iota my only gr

    re: Ravel

    never wanted the owners here ... always thought that there would be other buyers out there ( even if it were fernandes )

    thing is .. in my opinion, i don't think we would have got the os if it wasn't the current mob ... not for financial reasons .. just because of the political ties between certain people

    and yes ... i still can't wait for them to all clear out along with allarda.rse
