    I am wondering whether QPR have paid a loan fee for the players coming in, and, whether we are paying all their wages or whether the host club is picking up the tab?
    If we are selling and getting money in, and saving money on the loans then surely we should hope for a mid table finish.
    In a funny way, I am thinking that by selling and letting players go, might just be the "spring clean" the club needs to go through to move forward.

    I think we just have to accept that we're stymied bt FFP for this season and future prospects are no brighter unless someone buys our stadium for silly money and we go for broke again. 21st place and 50 points are a long way off at present...

    That’s really dismissive of the new bloke. He was obviously a first pick for Maribor last season, and I’m willing to bet that Maribor are a better team than QPR. They won in the second round of the Champions League this week.

    Where’s the positivity, the ‘can do’ attitude? Get with the programme Clive, enough of the doom and gloom!*





    *sorry Col, couldn’t resist. But Whittingham really is miserable.

    Who will have the most changes in his team... Boris or MW?
    I wonder who will show themselves to be victorious?

    Can't agree with the "doom and gloom" aspect in the article. The comments on our current transfer policy are probably quite factual and are fully in line with my thoughts. However, I do not rule out that the R's have driven me to becoming a "miserable old git"! :)

    As for Jan Maribar, the comments look quite ok:

    Jan Mlakar is a 20-year-old Slovenian youth international forward from Ljubljana.

    The 6ft-tall youngster spent time with Fiorentina in Italy as a junior, making one senior appearance and a further three on loan at Venezia. He returned to his homeland to sign for Maribor in 2018/19 and a good first half of the season with 12 goals saw Premier League side Brighton sign him on a three-and-a-half-year deal in January for the dreaded undisclosed fee. They immediately loaned him back to Maribor for the rest of the season and he finished the campaign with 15 goals in 36 appearances as Maribor won the league title.

    He has been capped by Slovenia at every level from U15s through to the U21s and their B team and has now signed a season long loan deal at QPR having been recommended to the R’s by Mark Warburton’s former assistant manager David Weir, who now works as the development manager at Brighton.

    To be fair, changes were needed.... the squad from last season only just kept us up ! Honestly thought last year the defence were very slow ....Do we really think the same squad would do better this season ?. I like the fact we have brought in new faces ,although some are older looking ones :). Fully back MW hope he knows what he is doing as long as we play well and finish higher than last season, I'll be happy. I think I'm right in thinking that from next season we can spend more as we would be out of the FFP cycle.

    Not really surprised and it explains his absence, especially if you recall Les' statement that "all player are potentially up for sale". However, I like him and hoped that he could team up with a new centre half partner. Let's see how this develops.

    But if true, we really could have only a few "old" faces in the our starting eleven next week, thus virtually a new team.

    He also said “we know next to nothing about him” and that he falls into the “so green they have barely sprouted” category of loaned. We know he has played, and scored consistently, for a better team than QPR.

    Some changes were needed for sure, but this looks all too like QPR StRangers again to me, like under Hughes 2nd season in the PL, with far less money involved of course. I do hope he is bringing in large sized replacements for Smith and Leischner, if he is going. They will be needed when we come up against the aerial bombardment we will get against the likes of Millwall. Can Hall and Barbet handle that? I doubt it.

    That I think is why we are getting Cameron back.

    We had a pretty good defence at the start of the season (ie...after the first 4 games/after we had signed Cameron.) Whilst he played we had a good Sept, a truly excellent October and an OK November...and then Cameron got injured.
    He gave last years, even slower defence good cover

    I think the difference between Hughes and Warburton, apart from money, is that Warburton is used to scouting for players, and working out what they can do for him, whereas in my opinion, Hughes went for big named and big reputation players he thought he could turn into QPR into a title chasing team.

    With regards to BFG2, I wouldn't be surprised if someone has made an enquiry or submitted a bid for him

    Sure. His track record in the English leagues are very limited and I understood it as that.

    But I accept your point on this sentence and put it down to a need for "artisic license". :)

    Yes, I hope Cameron comes in, but to provide cover. We also need a big CB, like Worral at Nottingham who we were supposed to be interested in.
