Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but I bet we’ve spent more on strikers (Dykes, Bonne, Frey, Celar, Etc), than the £5m we would have needed to have kept Wells here four years ago… and collectively they have probably scored less over that time combined than he has at Brizzle. |

Shirley that’s a matter which is answered through the harsh realities of life experience and not probability. [Post edited 23 Nov 12:01]

Yes - that goes without saying, but I’m not for bashing them for eventually doing the sensible thing. |

A tiny ray of hope as Martí seems to imply a couple will return after the international break? Clarke-Salter, Paal, Colback, Frey and Chair?… if so, I would implore the CEO relax his zero-comms approach and let the fans know. It would be a real shot in the arm. |

Plenty more that can be said about lack of communication from the club, so given I’ve started; hold my coat as I’m going back in… My daughter is quite a ‘baller and I emailed the club back in July to find out about when the girls’ team train and play as I was wondering if it was worth her trialing next summer. Nothing back. I followed up and still nothing back. I appreciate U13/14’s girls football is not their priority but this lack of engagement is alarming and could be a clue as to why the club continues to miss out on local / fan based talent. I’m not suggesting my daughter is the next John Barnes, but QPR would do well to think on their past mistakes as a matter of principle. Meanwhile, my daughter, at 12, is playing for an U14 team in the Sussex league and is enrolled in the Brighton pathway academy. BHA are a fantastic club with a great set up. They offer free football sessions in most East and West Sussex towns for girls and boys. They then offer holiday clubs for selected kids and then look to bring a shortlist of kids into their pathway academy. Kitty has been blitzed with Brighton kits and training gear, photos, programmes and has played on the pitch at the Amex in a tournament. In September they gave us tickets to watch BHA v Ipswich as a well done for her hard work in training. It’s no wonder they are so strong and so we’ll set up - a club with a true identity. Her favourite women’s team is… BHA (shame on QPR). Meanwhile, QPR can’t even be bothered to respond to a 4th generation QPR supporter! As a box to box midfielder, the QPR men might benefit from her - and btw, what would Chloe Kelly say? [Post edited 9 Nov 11:15]

Worse still, I commute into London five days a week as I am one of the owners of a firm of architects, engineers and surveyors which has more staff and turns over more than QPR, so I appreciate the importance of communication with my staff and my clients. The last thing I want is to waste a Saturday or Tuesday evening at Loftus road if the reward is so poor and the supporters are so undervalued. |

I appreciate that it’s been said before but I feel i need to join the echo chamber. It is absolutely essential that QPR provide some communication to the supporters around a number of matters, but injuries in particular. Unfortunately I have bought a season ticket, but I now have no intention of attending any matches until things improve. I am sure that I am not alone and this could be extremely damaging financially to the club as this bleeds through to non-season ticket holders which it will inevitably. If the club were able to communicate that we’d have a rally of first teamers at a certain point, I would feel less disengaged and more committed to bear with this short term situation. As it stands, I feel disengaged and frankly have no interest in the 4 hour round trip to watch 90 mins of slop that these wasters are serving up. I appreciate that Nourry has his ideals as to how to run this club but he is demonstrating his inexperience and youthful arrogance with every passing day of silence. |

When this happened before, the monthly running cost for the club was a church tea party. If it happened today, £1.6m a month would mean liquidation by Christmas. Let’s lot kid ourselves. Crazy thread. |

You mean the owners sacking themselves?… even if the board voted to sack themselves (eg, “we’ve had enough, we’re selling”), there’s still that little problem of who buys their equity and cash flows the club… eg, Chris Wright ‘sacking himself’ which didn’t end too well. …sacking the exec team - that’s a different matter. |

IMHO - Society has changed now and everyone is doped by social media, phones, constant visual stimulation… people struggle to focus and embrace silence. …sadly one day people will ask why the phrase ‘silence is golden’ was ever a thing. |

Looks that way… might not be a bad shout tbf. Field as CB, might be the best option given JCS absence… he’s a left footed player who can play the ball. |

In fact, calfordseaden say that they have collaborated with Michael Drain in 2019, developing Michael Drains previous designs - I assume those on his website with the previous badge, so probably the calfordseaden feasibility study is not as shown on the Michael Drain website. They also say they have considered rights of light matters and seem to have expertise to do so. Interesting. |

What we know so far…? only that it’s ridiculous to jump to rash conclusions about a season and new players so early. End. |

I desperately want him to succeed - why would anyone who claims to support QPR and enjoy watching football being played the right way not want such a talented player to succeed at QPR, but I totally agree with this post - *if* there is a hint of giving it the nutty whallops before he either has the right to give it the nutty whallops, then I’m sorry I’m out. Self entitled gen z. [Post edited 19 Sep 23:05]
