If they refuse to pay an expected hefty FFP fine! http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...e-for-financial-fair-play-breach-9721618.html
"My view has been consistent, that it is very unfair for a club that has been relegated as the wage difference -between the Premier League and -Championship is impossible. There should be a time period for clubs to rectify their salaries." This is the exact thing the Parachute payments are for. You don't get two bites at the cherry. It's incredible how much money they've spent on such a mediocre team.
I would love it, LOVE IT if they got relegated to the Conference. Slightly unrelated fact by the way: we have played QPR in competitive fixtures more times than any other club.
I hadn't realised until reading that that any fines are no longer to be shared between the other teams in the league, because "The Premier League don't like it?". I know the Premier League couldn't give two hoots about the smaller clubs, but why do they even get a say in the matter? Also whilst the fines going to charity is admirable, couldn't it have been used in grass-roots football? A £40m fine would pay to train an awful lot of coaches for starters, something the game in this country is crying out for. Hopefully some of the charities involved are football based ones.
Nothing will happen to them. It never does when they pull this kind of rubbish. They always get away with their cheating.
I suspect that you're spot-on; they'll wheedle their way out of it with the help of expensive lawyers who'll undoubtedly find a tenuous loophole. It's the way of the world.
I really, really, really hope they are hit very, very, very hard. Not only because it is them, but a message will be sent to all the other clubs. And a precedent will have been set.
How they can be arrogant enough to assume that FFP applies to 91 league clubs - but not to them is despicable and pompous in the extreme. Answer is simple - a transfer embargo, no FFP, no WCT
Redknapp is a joke. He signs players, pays them exorbitant amounts of money and then claims to have been 'successful' after leaving the club in financial turmoil. When the tough gets going, Redknapp gets out. I've just seen that QPR's wage bill is higher than AC Milan's. It doesn't surprise me. After Redknapp left Pompey 3/4 of his 'FA Cup winning underdog's' midfield went on to play for AC Milan...Kevin Prince Boateng, Sulley Muntari and there is another I can't think of. QPR are playing a dangerous game. I hope that the relevant regulatory bodies do come down hard on Redknapp and Fernandes as they shouldn't be able to gamble with a club's future the way that they are. Even if it is QPR's.
