Shouldn't Wormwood Scrubs be last in the list then?
“Open Space Hierarchy” are listed in sub categories; - metropolitan parks - district parks - local parks - small local parks and open spaces - small open spaces adjoining places of worship - allotments - school playing fields - outdoor sporting facilities
Each given a designation “OS” follows by numerical numbering, wormwood scrubs being the only metropolitan park SO1 right down to QPR Loftus road OS45, and indeed goes by alphabetical order in each sub category
Reading the list it seems to suggest outdoor sporting facilities are given low priority perhaps due to the fact they are not public communal open spaces and not easily accessed? They will never convert an open green space like a local park to a football ground

You will need full chapter and verse on the FIA as their first response will be your requests do not fall under the act. Bit like an insurance companies first reply to a claim.
I think our new ground will end up being in Ruislip or Greenford or around that area, im sure they will somewhere around there that the club could buy to build a new stadium apon.
Plus, I think its in an area where a lot of QPR fans live anyway so it would actually be decent.
I do actually wonder if the club are already looking for sites outside W12.

God I hope not. I support a London team not one in the boondocks. Have no idea how to get to Ruislip and don't want to find out. That would be like leaving Mayfair to live in Macclesfield. In W12 we stay. (O maybe W111. Or 10)

West London is R's.
Ruislip, Hanwell, Acton, Greenford are all west of London.
Besides Old Oak and LC stadium, which the club announced ahead of themselves of the supposed new home and now going no where with both, there isn’t a suitable site, is there?
I really cannot see a new stadium is other than a joke. We can't afford a button let alone a new stadium. I imagine by the end of this season you will be able to buy tickets without any problem in any stand so why on earth would anyone invest in a new stadium?

The owners can afford a new stadium because it doesn't come under FFP.
But yes, dwindling crowds and lack of demand for conference venues since C19 won't help speed things along.
Stop paying player's obscene salaries (yes, even at this level) and maybe we don't need to worry about a multi-purpose venue and we can just have an actual football stadium.

One issue I don't see mentioned much is, if a new stadium was built, who would own it? At this point in time I assume it would substantially be Gnanalingam and the board as they'd have to stump up the money.
I guess the club could have a stake in the new build through investing the proceeds of selling off LR but it would be a big change as we'd effectively become tenants.

"Queens Park Rangers Football Club and Genesis Housing Assocation have been given the go ahead to build a new housing development called Oaklands, described as a £175 million mixed use regeneration project, on the western edge of the Old Oak area.
The Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation, OPDC has approved its first planning application this week, giving QPR and Genesis Housing Association the go-ahead for Oaklands, on a currently derelict site at the top of Old Oak Common Lane in Hammersmith & Fulham.
The scheme will create 605 new homes, 40% of which will be affordable, and a new creative neighbourhood expected to attract companies from the new high tech economy providing hundreds of new jobs. Genesis and QPR have agreed to work together to deliver the first major development in the regeneration area.
In their announcement, QPR make it clear that they see this development as a step towards building a new stadium in Old Oak Park, saying they have other strategic land interests in Old Oak and would like to build a new stadium as part of the wider development, providing a new home for the club. ..............................."
Oaklands, Old Oak Common - Oaklands Rise "We worked in partnership with Queens Park Rangers to deliver Oaklands Rise, the first regeneration site at Old Oak Common in west London, home to the UK’s largest regeneration scheme."

Anyone knows if this development is completed?
From what I can see from a bit of googling it does look either completed or close to completed.

I really hope the owners do a “Heston” on the stadium, suddenly they bought the land some where close by to LR out of no where. I think a lot of us were taken by surprise after a decade slog with no end result on Warren Farm, then Heston happened. We own and not a lease that would be WF.
My wishful thinking. 💭
Sort of feel that this will be the way it happens, very similar to how Heston came about.
