    The question of how you progress from a struggling PL club in danger of relegation to mid-table security and upwards has been vexing me recently.

    I think it starts with having owners like we do but it is going to be a very long process if, indeed, it happens at all.

    It would be fantastic to get to the Europa league as Fulham did a few years back. I suppose the 'easiest' way might be to get to a cup final.

    When I watch that it makes me realise how lucky we are. We could have ended up with someone like Vincent Tan

    RTID, Cup run - QPR ?? Surely not !!

    EPL stability, means building steadily, having strong youth setup, no prima donas, and a few lucky breaks with a bargain or 2.

    Dear Tony,

    Thanks for Wembley it was great, however..

    Please can you prepare for these interviews a little better as you start to ramble and look unprepared. It scares me.

    Much Love
    Rhino

    I think that was a fantastic interview.

    If he's not genuine, he's the best actor I've ever seen!

    He's making it up as he goes along.

    Come on fella's 2 years ago it was all about spreading the 'brand' before destroying its value by backing MH with not one shred of business sense. Of course he changes message, he's not an amateur but he does know to say the right things.

    Especially after telling us that the certainty that is warren farm is looking dickie.

    What really makes me wince is that he is still making excuses for Nike not being able to design a Bloody football kit in 6 months. When In reality a bigger club would have got there way. Fair enough, we not that big but stop reminding us that you couldn't swing it. Odd.

    Each to there own though.

    Tony Fernandes & Amit Bhattia & Mr Mittal...we sure landed the jackpot finally with thanks to Gianni bringing in Flavio & Bernie initially.

    As I understand it, NO club can design their kit in the first year with Nike. They all have to go with something from the catalogue for the first season.

    Yep its only those who have issue with our board[for some odd reason] that dont know the facts and end up looking daft after trying to lower Tony's credibility when there is nothing to lower

    Wonderful TF but aim high always
    If we can get into the middle pack then why not 8th?

    Caution to the wind

    I suspect us to be tight and hard to beat but without flair there is no plan B

    I'm not so sure. If we do indeed go with 5-3-2 I think we could be in for some exciting times.
