    I know absolutely nothing mate, believe me <laugh>

    It's inevitable that we'll appoint a manager mate.

    That’s a bit of a story mind, the guy helped build spirit of 37 and then the relationship broke between them and the club and the group disbanded and he’s been a spokesman against the club since.

    wasn’t it all around the time the BCB controversy occurred

    With all the pinches of salt I've been taking with these ITK comments about announcements and Heckingbottom and private jets I could fund the Roman army's conquest of Gaul.

    Was before that, the BCB thing just added fuel to the fire I think.

    press wouldn’t be invited for that. It would just be done online.

    Could just be the pessimism in me but I can't see any truth in the supposed news today, even less in the supposed press conference. The club run a tight ship but things still leak days in advance.

    With Cifuentes there would be 2 clubs involved so an even higher chance of something leaking.

    Not even sure we'd do a press conference for a new head coach either, he'd just do in house interviews until the pre season games.

    I don't know but I'd hazard a guess that some have turned the job down because they're only allowed to bring an assistant in and that's it.

    The Open Letter he wrote backfired. It just encouraged nasty people to write horrible things in the signatories list. There's no way the letter will ever be taken seriously with the comments.

    Don’t think there will be a press conference today but hopping for an announcement that QPR have agreed to allow us to speak to Cifuentes That would indicate it’s all but done

    Think his point was that Cifuentes only took one person to QPR.
