    has been appointed to the Board and acquired a minority interest in the ownership of the club.

    Sounds dodgy as hell! Not the kind of background I look out for. However, whether or not he will be good for QPR's finances, I cannot say.

    I wonder if there could be some kind of partnership/relationship between QPR and FC Cincinnati.

    Why? His background is not that different to any of the other owner/directors. Is that dodgy?

    Pretty low profile bloke. Of course he’s enormously rich through the sale of a company he inherited from his Dad, but not rich on a Mittal scale by any means. Or even on a Fernandes scale of yesteryear. If he has committed to part funding our ongoing gap between revenue and spending, we should be politely welcoming.

    Don't be a hater. His interest is the natural extension of QPR being a "global brand".

    Local boy from Dartmouth does good - seems very small fry (within both FC Cincinnati and Cincinnati Reds) for across the pond.
    Be interesting to see what he brings to the table that the rest of the board don’t. Can’t (obviously) see anything right now.

    I think that’s Dartmouth College, Vermont, rather than Devon…..
