Whether you like to hear this or not, and Palace are a Premier League side at the moment, I think someone like Frank De Boer is what this club needs now. A Dutch or perhaps German manager to create an attractive style of football, fresh culture, bring on younger players and win over the fans with entertaining football that may not always win, but is good to watch.
Instead, what do we get ...? 'I'm looking forward to my 30th year in management and working with this exciting group of players to move the club forward blah blah blah' yawn....
Subtext:
'And if it doesn't work I'll still a) get paid very well every month and b) get paid off handsomely if sacked.
We really have come almost full circle from 2004/05. Really hard to get enthusiastic about this ongoing saga any longer. We are stuck.

I can't believe so many words being spouted about something that has nothing to do with QPR. | | | |

You obviously missed the 4021 political threads over the last 2 months. | |

"When we have a young manager we say we need an older experienced one and when we have an older experienced one we say we need a younger one with something to prove. If we have a European manager he doesn't understand the Championship and we need a pwopah English gaffer, and when we have a pwopah English gaffer we wonder whether a European, forward thinking, continental style boss may be better. We look at Fernandes being taken for a ride and say we need a director of football, then we have a director of football and say why don't we let the manager get on with it. We ask them to scout the lower leagues and Europe and then when they do we give the players no time at all to settle and prove themselves and say we need more experienced players, we sign more experienced players and we say they're past it and don't care and earn too much and we should sign younger players from the lower leagues. We say we need more QPR people at the club, then when we get them we say it's job for the boys or they've only been hired because they're mates with somebody or even they've only been hired because they're black."

Genuine question (we don't get to watch many championship games over here):
Are there any other championship clubs with similar or lower budgets, that have the player material to play attractive, attacking football consistently? | | | |
| De Boer on 12:57 - Jun 27 with 2938 views | daveB |
very few clubs playing attractive football in this league but Barnsley and Brentford have been very good on limited budgets | | | |

That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Home win
Away draw
Cup win
I'd say that was quite promising | |

I had to share a table in the cafe with a fellow R's fan I've never met who was so negative with his whole attitude to QPR
Going on about Les Ferdinand, great player terrible director of football.
I asked him what he thought Les did as pat of his duties, he just said he was crap. I asked him crap at what, what things is he crap at and how bad are his worse decisions and what if anything is there positive to say about LF.
No response.
Watching soccer saturday when Huddersfield's 3rd goal went in I enjoyed watching half a dozen or so 'fans' get up and leave in the crowd behind the sky reporter. I'm sure they are ecstatic at de Boer as there manager. | |

There seem to be a lot like that - but I assume it's the same at other Clubs as well. Why do they bother? | | | |

Had the same experience in the Crown last week. Literally first person to talk to me after I sat down, straight after hello, "Ferdinand can go, that's a salary saved, he's crap." Maybe it was the same person? | | | |

Let's hope so, otherwise there is two idiots like that! | | | |

I think there's always been a certain percentage of perennially negative fans. Still remember the first game I ever went to - Ipswich v Leicester, 1973. Town were managed by Bobby Robson and en route to a fourth place finish. Even as a nine year old I couldn't understand why their fans were all slagging off the Ipswich captain, Mick Mills.
This was well before the stupid money era, which has done a lot to alienate fans in recent years. [Post edited 14 Aug 2017 20:03]

I disagree!
It really all started to go awry when Chris Wright rolled in with pre-floatation cash. Other then that... | |
