Sounds like hell. Seriously. Replacing an atmospheric stadium at Loftus Road for what will undoubtedly be an oversized drone dome. Great sponsors? Jeez, nice to know your shirt's being polluted by a nice company (or country, since your job these days seems to be to exist as an advertizing platform for Malaysia). Global brand? We have a global fanbase and tradition; we don't need to be a 'brand' which implies some sort of comsumerist slant on things (i.e. stupid moves like your new shop in Dubai or wherever it was). Jet plane and F1 car? This is football. I seriously couldn't care less, and neither should you. Your team's in the most-viewed league in the world and yet we're still televised at roughly equal amounts, and despite your recent increase in notoriety after a few noticeable wins/thrashings (Swansea LOL) we still get more search hits than you and more website hits (leedsunited.com is viewed more than the Chelsea equivalent, for example). Shepherds Bush is just a **** part of a **** (unfortunately large) city in England. Other than a team, we have everything. More unfulfilled potential than any other club in the WORLD. Welcome by the way to Mr Dirtbag. What variety of sheepshagger are you, Micky; exiled Yorkshire or native Welsh?
I used to watch QPR when I lived in London, I loved their wee ground and still do. I can't personally remember meeting anyone who supported QPR that didn't come from London, but I'm sure there is a few around. QPR are a small club in London, they always will be, they are bigger than Orient, Palace and Brentford, but smaller than the others, not that there is anything wrong with that. If I remember their celebrity fan is Phil Collins and I'm sure the club and the supporters are proud of this.
Ellers - typical of a fan of a not-so-large club ecstatically relishing his club being in the top-flight and looking down his nose at clubs that are not. Form is fleeting, class is permanent. Enjoy your good form for as long as it lasts - and it could be a number of seasons, no one really knows. I actually have a soft spot for QPR as they were the first team I ever saw play live in England, before I went up to Leeds to see "my team." I was hosted by a generous season-ticket holder, as I was dropped off by my cousin at the ground and she asked a stranger if she would show this 15 year old where to get a ticket. I even bought a blue and white hooped team shirt as I thought it was cool.
Simple facts are: Leeds are a bigger club than QPR Paddy Kenny is a better keeper than Green QPR will have another difficult season in the Premiership Leeds will probably get promoted NW a better manager than MH And finally - the text messages sent by Paddy Kenny were between him and the recipients - The Management Team at QPR need to grow up and focus on getting their own house in order - the evidence, based on one game, suggests they have a long way to go. The real time to judge will be after the first 10 games or so.. Best of luck to Leeds (I personally hope you get promoted - the supporters deserve to be rewarded for sticking with the club through all the recent bad times), to Paddy and to Warnock (all are Heart and Soul football!!).
Rodney Proper football fan I see, what's happening with the Dawson move? I rate him think he would be a good signing hope you get rid of Hughes he's useless
On the Dawson front - I think we have more chance of signing Les Dawson :-( But agree he would be a very good signing for us.. As for Mr Hughes i am afraid i have to agree with you - he doesnt have the heart of a true football lover, only interested in his image and using his agent friend to arrange as many transfers as he can - i wonder why!!. I really hope NW works his magic for you guys - you might not get the best football all the time, but i guarentee you the guy will give it everything he has to get you promoted - Was never my first choice before he came to Rangers - but once you get to hear what he has to say you realise the guy is football through and through - if a tad mad at times lol Best of luck this season and for UCK sack - Give NW a chance in the Premier League next year, he deserves a real crack at it. Too many xxxxholes at QPR robbed him of the chance. He will never win you the Champions League but he will definately keep you entertained.
