    No sign of Adel on the plane after he got subbed at half time.
    Someone has just tweeted that they saw him outside a noodle bar waiting for the Kuala Lumpur bus..

    Welcome to the world of social media eh?
    Doesn't excite me that much either but can't expect new signings every other day.

    This is bigger than a signing.
    ===========================
    Nice classy touch on the naming as well.

    Just seen the plane, it's a great gesture. To name it after Macca shows TF is in touch with our history. I would love to see it in real life.

    However you look at it, it is upping our profile big time.

    Really nice gesture naming the aircraft "Alan McDonald" that only leaves a stand in the new stadium to have similar treatment.

    The market in Asia is phenomenal, so the value of this can't be underestimated, TF is really getting the QPR name out there big time.

    As for managing expectations, we can't sign players every day of the week, TF has already stated that players have been identified and that 2 or 3 more would be joining. He's been true to his word up until now, so there's no reason to think that it won't happen.

    The plane must come to Belfast...you would all agree?
    It can take fans back for a game...you would all agree?

    I would like a seat. You may agree or disagree!:emoticon-0116-evilg

    BREAKING NEWS

    QPR have announced the location of their new stadium...

    It will be built next to Heathrow Airport... because they'll never get their new plane down South Africa Road! :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Why not knock down the White City Estate and build an airport (LondonQPR) and a new stadium. We have the team and we have the aircraft.

    Just a reminder to everyone who has kind of poo pooed the idea that we now have a plane in our colours as I have just been reading an article on Rob Hulse wanting to see out his contract (I think we have already gone around the houses on that one).

    My point is this time last we were about the only team in the football league never mind the premiership without a sponser and therefore we were wearing old shirts with masking tape on the front and I remember it felt really embarrassing at the time, see the link.

    Just look how far we have come in 12 months unbelievable

    <ok> agree Flanman we should all remember where we have come from and not sound 'spoilt' because we have not signed some £50m player. This news is good for us because our name will be flying thousands of people around the world. Tf/amit and team QPR have turned our club from a Championship relegation team to where we are now. So much has happened just in the last 12 months and we should all embrace something like this because No other club flys their players around on a team plane.
