Must have missed it but why is OOC off the table? | | | |

No different to buying land and building offices or houses on it. Dont know why it needs to be an all singing and dancing new town or shopping center attached to it. Just creating more problems. The land they sell LR for would go some way to pay for LCS. The owners are already having to pay out vast sums of money which i assume is tax deductible anyway.
A decent modern football stadium would easily be able to hold concerts etc for a little extra bunce if needs be. The owners seemed happy to pay out quarter of a billion on jaded old football players at the whim of jaded old football managers. | |

Yeah, you're right - supporting QPR is a life sentence without parole - wouldn't want to add to those poor feckers' existing problems. Silly idea. | | | |

I'm for a new stadium. I was just saying that OOC made perfect sense for the club and they were right to try everything they could to build a stadium there. Now we have the alternative at LC it is a compromise. Selling LR will not cover the cost of building a new stadium but will go some way to it. Hopefully the pockets of land they have bought at OOC will help and it won't be a financial burden around the club's neck.
Always loved LR but it can not be developed into the ground that we need to compete with teams in this league let alone the Prem. | | | |

Think development of LR will more than cover building a stadium on L C , I think there has been survey of how many units can be built on L R and I suppose starting prices of half a million £ [Post edited 8 Aug 2018 9:26]

I think I'd like to buy one. I'll have the one nearest the goalmouth at the Loft End. I'd call it Lofty Heights or some name like that. Half a Mill you say? Put me down for two I say. | | | |

Starting prices of half a million? I hope you wouldn't be marketing the new properties. New build one bed flats in W12 start at somewhere near £900k and two bed around £1.2m. Some of the new two bed flats in TV Centre are nearer £1.5m but that's down to being in an iconic building I suppose. | |

I wouldn't pay that to live around there. How many times a week are you going to your house or car broken into. | | | |

It's a funny old thing. I was born in Harrow Weald, and spent some great years in my twenties renting in Notting Hill. When the time came to buy my first flat I simply couldn't afford to buy in W11 or W12, so I moved east, and now south east. On match days, I'm part of the great commute into Loftus Road - and this is the same for most London clubs - the only people who can afford to live close to their boyhood club are either millionaires or lucky enough to rent social housing. But you know what? - when I walk through Shepherds Bush on match days I think to myself, I'm glad I didn't buy a flat in this $hithole. | | | |

You think people living in social housing in Shepherds Bush are lucky ? | | | |

That’s an obvious answer , they didn’t bother with more suitable sites for a football stadium when they was Aval , old aka gives the, a better cash return , the diary crest site and the BBC great sites for a stadium not so great return in the boards pockets . | |

Good luck with any plans to enlarge east action station to cope with a average sat football crowd , one of the smallest stations on the central line with houses pinning it down size wise, if u ever have to deal with tfl for anything. Expect huge delays also non runner for me | |

Yes. Anyone getting social housing anywhere these days is lucky. | | | |

Main bbc was just about workable if they had bought the Ta place on South Africa road as well , main advantage to that site would have beeping able to see the bits we didn’t need to off set the cost of a new stadium and us owning the stadium instead of prob renting the LCS ,
Losing dairy crest site is criminal perfect location low cost in today’s land terms think it went for 125 million in the end BBC went for 300 for the total site . | |

Anyone seen the new plans? A real play for the LC stadium today. All or nothing | |

Yes I've seen it, I'm not sure who the intended audience is, is it QPR fans who still believe that a new stadium isn't necessary or a plea to the council to help us?
Either way it came across to me as a bit bizarre and desperate, surely meaningful talks with the council would more likely be productive and if this stunt is for the fans benefit then it pointless because if they haven't worked out why we need a new stadium by now then they probably never will. | |

Yes, that looks good, but it wants a bit more flesh on the bone: some indication of what we want to build, including facilities for alternate revenue streams (I notice it didn't say anything about low-cost housing). | |

The LR redevelopment will feature numerous affordable options: the "Ellerslie Quarter" (bedrooms 4'6"x4'6") and the "Family Lofts" if you have children, which will be roomier but not have a roof. | |
