Not sure why people seem happy with a team that finished 16th.

That's the expectations of our fans nowadays I'm afraid. What many seem to forget is, we still had a pretty good team that could have finished higher than we did.

Hollow's record is not very good (especially his away record). His win rate is not very good.
THE STATS DON"T LIE!
Anyway he has gone now and hopefully, we can get in a proper manager and if that fails, Jude the cat would do better than Hollow and cost less.

As you say, he's gone now. Time to stop slagging him off?

Spot on and then losing him the second time. I don't buy into the stories of NW not staying because of his wife's illness as he went into the Cardiff job shortly after. Always thought it had something to do with our management structure and the DOF.
Ollie was again a poor choice however he did what he needed to do. He kept us up when most thought (including me) that he would take us down.
I don't want another crap manager, it's about time we got a result and brought in some decent.
Only at QPR.

I would like to be entertained like when Rodney, Stan or Tarrabt used to play. But I also accept that our players aren’t as good as them so as long as they try their best and try to do the right things I won’t slag them off. If we get McLaren, I will be get behind him the same as I did with all the others even Hughes, Redknapp and JFH.
We were building a more promising future with the youngsters and team spirit (also without loanees). I hope that this change doesn’t upset that.

Good attitude mate. The players efforts can't be discounted. The managers efforts can't be discounted. Unfortunately just like the players not being as good as your above named, neither is/was the manager.

Well, I forgot to mention Rotherham.
Isreal won the Eurovision.
Donald Trump looks more orange
Chelsea blew the Champions league place <laugh>
and....Oh yes we sacked Holloway for being a crap manager (Although some will say I am being disrespectful to the Messiah).

I mentioned earlier that a newspaper said we had plenty of contact from managers enquiring after the job.
Said all along I would prefer to go foreign but would be happy with Schteeve.
 
Moyes might actually be a good fit for us.

TF will like him for being able to stick to a tight budget.
He's not a loudmouth.
He has a full hair rather than Stevies 'cheynobyl' look.
I'm starting to think he's got my money.

Anyone see the TF tweet, saying it was a hard decision but will be fully explained eventually.
....but Ollie will always be welcome and loved by all at QPR.

I am probably reading a bit too much into this....but I think there is a back story here...

I really can’t see it being moyes , isn’t he quoted that he wants to leave West Ham cos they are not matching his own ambitions of European Football , we surely don’t fall into that .
I think the guys at Luton and Lincoln could be worth a look . Also the guy at Shrewsbury. All done great jobs !
Personally think maybe someone like Chris Coleman may come into the picture, I really hope not !
 
McClaren did well for Derby and only missed out on promotion during a play-off final because of some pesky tykes from West London.

He's always in the mix whenever a vacant manager's position crops up, which in this game is every other week, so hardly surprising that he's being touted as the new QPR boss.

Could we do any better than McClaren at QPR? Possibly. Could we do worse than him? Probably.

I just hope the club pull their collective finger out and appoint a replacement for Ollie asap so that the new manager has the off-season to assess and strengthen the team. Any chance of a transfer war chest seems slim so he'll have to make do with what's left after the end of season cull or bring in low rent alternatives.
