Hopefully we will be able to get rid of Jimmy as he is taking up 20% of next season's playing budget. If we can get all of the high earners out then we will be looking a lot healthier financially and will have swept away the last remnants of those taken on during the last few years, replacing them with younger, hungrier players that NP can mould into a successful side.
 
as i mentioned on another thread, bullard to qpr is a perfect fit all round and would be a good move for all parties. fingers crossed there is something in that one.
 
The only person at QPR who is going to spend any money is Lakshmi Mittal ('only' the richest man in the UK <laugh>), but he's said - or at least words to the effect of - that he won't spend a great deal. I think they'll buy a few players for £4-5m, but definitely not Chamakh. However, it wouldn't surprise me if they had him as a marquee player on loan, if only to try and attract more quality from abroad on permanent deals.
 
I'm not sure they'll be able to resist spending quite a bit and replacing a few of the lesser names which is a shame because it's down to the likes of Shaun Derry, clint hill, Bradley Orr and kaspars gorkss just as much as taarabt thats the reason they are up there.

I also think they'll get rid of warnock the second they start on a bad run.

Those players are not Premier League quality. They need to improve. From what I've seen this season, they're set up just to be hard to beat, but playing that way in the Championship is very different to playing that way in the top flight.

I agree about Warnock though, I think they're desparate to get rid of him but know the kind of backlash they'll get from the fans and media if they do it without even the most trivial excuse.

Briatore might come back and become comical by signing all the players and picking the team again.

Ecclestone is too busy trying to stop Formula 1 losing the Bahraini oil money by rearranging their Grand Prix for them.

The Mittals are pretty good with their money. After their initial shareholding they only put any money into the club as loans. Then to cash them out they made Briatore and Ecclestone just give up some of their stake in the club. I don't see them becoming flash all of a sudden.

They've earnt their right to a chance though in the same way turner, dawson, ashbee and ricketts did or gilks, evatt, adam and vaughan have done. Whether or not they are good enough should be determined once they have a chance, clearly in a real world that may well prove not to be the case.

I think Derry will do the same job for them, that Ash did for us, he'll stay in the team.

I agree about Warnock though, the clock is already ticking on his departure, they want a name and he'll be binned as soon as they lose a few games.
