    don't get me wrong I'm not really but

    this time last year we were most people's 2nd favourite team - we'd just gone up and were not a threat to anyone
    one year on - we are p*ssing money away without a decent plan , buying more players than the rest of the premiership put together and people will delight with every 0-5 drubbing we get

    either sign robert green and stick with him or don't sign him
    either move on shaun derry, clint hill and jamie mackie or don't

    we seem to have a team of 12 impact subs

    championship = team who try and an even league
    premiership = take the money and don't run

    enough of rant

    glad I've got a season ticket though - they will be harder & harder to get

    just hope mh realises it all revolves around faurlin

    Being most peoples favourite team often means you are not much of a threat in terms of winning games and success.

    Clearly now we are some other fans are jealous of the backing we have and how the club is quickly progressing.

    I would rather that us fans are happy with qpr and the direction we are moving in (like now) rather than other fans liking us.

    I'm embarrassed you are a fan as well and it doesn't all revolve around Faurlin

    We have 6 less players than last season and have spent £1.5m so far.

    @OfficialQPR: Fernandes: “We’re not panic-buying; we’re not spending beyond our means; & we’re certainly not throwing money away like some are reporting."

    @IJTaylor81: #QPR @tonyfernandes - This summer was always going to see a big overhaul, but we’ve been very prudent and we’re building for the future #QPR

    @IJTaylor81: #QPR @tonyfernandes - We’ve got a very strict, precise business plan in place. Any deal we do for a player is well within our budget. #QPR

    Above are a few of many tweets. Sadly the OP sounds like you believe the hype from I'll informed journalists and bitter fans making assumptions. That us the official view hopefully we can put this to bed quickly!

    Call yourself a fan? You can't even get your facts right.

    We've offloaded 15 players in the closed season, so obviously we needed to bring players in. Now would you like us to sign **** players who don't cost anything? If we did we wouldn't have needed to get rid of the **** we had.

    As for blowing money, this is where you really are embarrassing. So far we have signed Green, Johnson, Nelson, Fabio, Diakite, Hoilett, Park, Bosingwa, Cesar. In those players we have 4 champions league winners, nearly 20 premiership titles, several FA cups, League Cups and Charity shields. All for less money than West Ham spent on Matt Jarvis, 1 over rated player from a relegated team.

    So next time you spout crap, go do some homework first.

    Everyones on their pins at transfer deadline time, let's not not turn this one or any other one into a kick the op fest. He's just reflecting the confusion and disbelief that is general until the smoke settles and we see where we are.

    Don't really see your problem. Why is it embarassing to have a positive development? <party><party><party>

    If you really want to moan that should read lack of impact subs!

    Nobody take this the wrong way 'it's not your money being spent' do people think when Chelski spend £30/40/50mill on one player their fans start griping about how much has being spent, the same goes with Man Ure etc etc enjoy the ride it's our time to enjoy the fruits of millionaires who are well educated in professional business who know what they are doing.
    No QPR fan should feel ashamed or worried about what is happening to our small but GREAT CLUB today,tomorrow or future years. THIS IS OUR TIME NOW.

    Don't care if we were everyones 2nd favourite team because did any of them come and put money into our club? Would rather get better players to see better football to produce new fans that generate money for QPR and not everyone else.

    Crazy thread mate...the way your talking we'd still have furlong, Gallen, Chris day, Santos....
    I myself can't quite believe the players we have now compared to last year and the year before. Last year we were looking at Danny Webber ... Nuff said
