I love building things and at QPR, in time, I think we can build something quite special Tony Fernandes New QPR owner "It is tough to develop Loftus Road because of the lack of space, so we need to look at other options in the area. It's something to do at one stage," Fernandes added. Fernandes was quick to point out that his plans for building the club are long-term. "Four signings in this transfer window is definitely possible, but just to stay in the Premier League is the ambition for this season. Lets take things step-by-step and be realistic," he added.

But we will build a strong scouting network and training infrastructure. "It will be a gradual process and the club will be better off than when I arrived," he concluded. Fernandes also confirmed the club will make an announcement in the "next day or two" about ticket prices.
Agreed North. So refreshing to have two owners with such respect for the fans. The only negative I can see is that there appears to be no negative!
Yeah, everything's going TOO well! This is QPR after all. I'm not used to it, but I'll put up with it for a while longer...
Like the scouting network comment and also training infrastructure; hope that is achieved cos it's the way to go for a small club like ours. The organic grow your own approach.
