thanks north, i couldn't find a link!

well done brix :emoticon-0148-yes:

i quite like this thread. half glass empty-ish, but in a really positive way! and it's got legs: legitimate basis for keeping it alive the duration of the season? i believe we've more than a snowball's chance in hell of surviving (swansea, norwich, blackburn, brummies, wolves? easy.) WE'VE...

sh*t. a takeover can obviously be very different to a change in shareholder mix (e.g. by minority shareholder buyout). in the club statement, takeover talks are only referred to with respect to what was going on back in march. reference to more recent activity makes no mention of a takeover...

i was greeted with very graphic footage of a cow milking when i logged on. (still better than seeing either goon, tho)

Born in Isleworth/West Middlsx Hosp, but moved away as toddler with parents who simply weren't into footy. (wipe aside a tear.) Back to Hanwell in mid-80's whereupon a good mate and his fanatic dad got me hooked after inviting me along to see the Rs from the loft (2-2 draw against Norwich in...

wasn't thursday *the* key day last time, too?

Agree with this. That statement (which I also thought was a wind-up, at first) comes across as really defensive. They mean to remind us all of how they're God's gift to the club. Arrogant, self-satisfied pr**ks. Can't wait to hear Neil when he next speaks to the press...

(still very dubious myself :undecided:, but....) http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/queens-park-rangers/news/1065771/Taarabt-could-stay-with-QPR Queens Park Rangers captain Adel Taarabt admits he could yet ply his trade for the R's next season if a move to Paris St Germain does not come to...

Depends on what your definition of pointless is, really. It would be a spectacle because we'll get so much more coverage in the prem - it would be visible, high profile, get press, etc. Couldn't getting that much attention actually amount to meaning something (i.e. not being pointless?)

ah. stupid question, then..

(Possibly stupid) question: why is our Neil considered to be in the twilight of his career? I've read this elsewhere (aside from in QPAAAAGH's initial post), but I don't get it. He's around 63 and clearly full of enthusiasm and passion for the game. He's not in a wheelchair. Not going senile...

Alright, alright...just a little light-hearted sharing! Fans reaction will depend heavily on his attitude over the summer weeks. But a rampant ego like his needs a lot of attention, and Warnock can’t be there all summer to micro-manage him. AND he’s not going to mature overnight...

well, the loveable yanks certainly think he's worth hanging onto. sadly, the article's "facts" are a bit off, and the logic all over the place. (you couldn't make up that title though!)...
