    No country for old men either, judging by our experience.

    Yes, without his dim brother and the ginger one though.

    If relegated then I think the focus ought to be to restore financial stability, as well as to bring back a decent youth policy. As lovely as it would be to get immediate promotion back to the Premier League, I'd settle for a few years as a robust, top-half Championship side if it meant we looked a bit like Southampton next time we go up.

    For that we should seek a good Championship-type manager with carte blanche to oversee football things from top to bottom. I'm not averse to looking overseas if the likes of Howe or the MK Dons chap isn't available. I quite admire guys like Mick McCarthy too, whose doing a great job at Ipswich, reaping the rewards of a few years of quiet rebuilding.

    Agree, we should look to build for the long term future with youth and players with something to prove and honour in playing for the badge. Happy if this means a few years in the Championship, this will go a long way to getting our "real Rangers back".

    As for Neville - NO! NO! NO!

    Dislike the bloke but think he probably has it in him to be a good manager.

    He's clearly got some tactical idea but what about his people management skills?

    Would his ego consider us more than a temporary venture (I think he'd drop us in a second if a more high profile or interesting offer came in).

    We need someone who can commit to the rebuilding (I'd guess this will be Les' blueprint ultimately) and have some loyalty of affinity with the club (either pre-existent or developed over time).

    Someone from lower down would suit better and I think Derry offers more than Neville at this time.

    He'd have us a lot more solid at the back though, as he blames everything on the defence - even a wonder goal is not safe from damnation of the defenders.

    I suspect he's too smart to take a job with us; he knows that it's a poisoned chalice (as he highlighted) with issued much deeper than the current manager. There's a reason that so many managers appear to fail at QPR, and it's not the managers' fault. (That said, I'm firmly against HR, which appears contradictory, but isn't!)

    What's the reason mate? They are given money, strong support from the owners and moreloyalty than they deserve. The owners may have made poor choices for manager, but once in I don't think they have anyone else to blame but themselves.

    There is far too much hatred of all things Man Utd for Neville to ever be accepted on here.

    This is the type of bloke we need and he's a newbie ( in relative terms. ) This is a really good read and I wished it was about us but unfortunately it's about Brentford. This is more like the QPR way than anything I've seen at our place in the last few years.

    An excellent read there Nines. I heard an interview with Warburton on Talksport last year and he was saying how he went and studied the coaching methods at Barcelona, Ajax and several other top European clubs. At his own expense he would go to those clubs for a week at a time just observing and gleaning info from the coaching staff at those clubs.

    When you look at that Watford coaching roster in 2006 all those have gone on to success elsewhere playing attractive football. However, would Warburton be barmy enough to walk away from all he has put together at Brentford to come to our basket-case of a club? I think not. In fact there's every chance they'll replace us...

    Well, maybe...

    He seems to know what problems we have at the club. But whether or not he can do the job, no one knows. He should start in the lower leagues, really. I think young managers sometimes ruin their careers by being too hasty and trying to start at the top when they need experience instead.
