    You must be joking Wats <doh>? I will grant you that this isn't his best offering but Paul McCartney along with John Lennon are the most significant and best song writers of our time.

    I think Lennon was excellent. Don't think McCartney could have got 1% as far in life without him. I won't profess to being an expert on the subject but McCartney's solo stuff, like the Xmas song, is dire.

    It's a myth that Lennon had all the talent.

    McCartney was in fact the talented one.
    He could play all the instruments and write the music.
    John was asked by the media, what his thoughts were on Ringo Starr supposedly being the best drummer in the world?
    Lennon said, "He's not even the best drummer in the band!"
    McCartneys' voice was shot from possibly smoking too much grass. The older he got, the worse his voice got.
    Normally, anyone who has a decent voice, has it for life.

    For the record, I happened to like the early songs from Wings.

    If this was a viral marketing campaign fair enough because people are talking about it. But I doubt it very much.

    The clubs comms are very shabby

    I want England and the World to look at our club with a degree of wonderment . The club has mucked up on football terms enough now the hertiage is being fed on cheese

    This happens when corporate has a pop at marketing. How can the club feel proud?

    When our hot release is HD in 2015 and a shirt without hoops serious questions should be asked

    All miles wrong... In a world where brand and image have to be constantly reviewed what are we doing at QPR ?

    Look at any high street to see what people have come to expect. High street brands are now signposts and lifestyle choices ... Ask directions 99% of the time you will get a brand as a land point. How many times have you heard something like ...

    "That's nice" "Thank you it's from M&S"

    brand alignment is everyday life in the UK so when a football club cocks up on the football that's life but to then ruin the clubs image is suicde

    What is worse what I have just said is basic marketing rules for kids at Uni

    That Xmas video should be the last job for many . Who signed off on that ? Who devised that ? Who directed that? Anyone who's understands media must know how we currently sit ? We are a joke in the papers and they do this ?

    Shameful stuff

    I think that TF and the board should hold an investigation to discover how the 8yo daughter of one of the media team was allowed to use club facilities to produce a video for her year 4 Christmas project.

    Lads the facts remain
    The Beatles are not cool
    The world was hyped
    Some great songs of course
    Biggest group yes
    But because people now like to feel they own everything like their music

    2016 forward the Beatles are not cool they can't be until they get forgotten

    Not much chance of that because there are the best and are the benchmark ... That don't make them cool

    The most shocking part of that is that we still have Traore on the books! In my subconscious I thought he was already playing non-league football in Cyrus or something??

    Snap. And given his (merciful for me) months long injury, why isn't Mackie in a wheelchair?

    He's not being played simply to ruin my match days predictions. It's a conspiracy I tell you!
