Ownership of QPR
at 14:58 12 Nov 2024

The whole situation at HQ is just plain weird.

We have fabulously wealthy owners who seem content on owning a second tier (possibly third) club and for what reason.

If you were that wealthy you'd want to show of your dolly bird to your business associates, unless mediocrity and debt are the new in thing.

Ayresome Park was pretty basic, From memory theirs consisted of a wall with the word 'Toilet', not overly sure whether that was to describe the facilities or the whole ground.

Maybe Adrian Durham should do a Top (or Bottom) 10 worst football grounds he's been to.

Liverpool got planning permission to demolish a whole street, so i'm fairly sure you'd get planning permission to build over half a garden you own.

This is a bit long winded.

I'm not a landlord and also i have no idea how any of the finances workout but i'm sure there must be some link between what you pay for a property and how long you have to rent it out before you make a profit but.....

Is it financially viable for a club with wealthy owners to invest in property without affecting FFP (Or the other abbreviation), there are 36 ish properties (google map survey) backing onto our ground from Loftus Road and Ellerslie Road, each property is divided into 3 flats and they are approx £600k each.
Where's that calculator gone, ok that makes 36*3*£600k = £65m.
Bear with me, now if the club systematically bought them through a shell company and just rents them out at the going rate and when it owns all of them, then just build over half the gardens and either sell them on or just keep renting them out.
Also on rightmove there is a maisonette in LR for rent at £6k per/month.
Calculator again, 36*3*£6k = £648,000 a month.
I know the maths is a bit rudimentary but it might be financially viable.

Parking at Loftus Road advice for a quick get away after
at 15:20 9 Sep 2024

Just as a heads up, they have dug up the road under the railway at Greenford and it's an utter shambles, not sure where abouts in Greenford you are heading to but make sure if you park at Greenford you are the correct side of the railway.

You may be better off parking at Perivale, form there you can head over Horsenden Hill for North Greenford and head via the Ruislip Road for South Greenford.

Good luck

If you look at Google maps it seems this is the only viable option, the council might be persuaded to truncate SAF or make it a single lane Buses only between Bloemfontein and Batman and the ground could move far enough north to allow for a new School end stand to get past Imrie be full width.

Expat Friendly v L'Escargot

Not to be a killjoy or anything but fck me, where did Marti find that opposition.

Their goalie looked about 14.

On a more serious note, i'm not sure that Armstrong is the answer to any question that involves the words goal and scorer.

Pay West London a visit and you can sample the pubs and visit the club shop.

@Hayesender, what about Margate away, walking across the halfway line during the 2nd half and then pretending to take penalties in their goal.

A fool and his meagre money.

I'll see your Dykes hat-trick(100/1, Bet365) and i'll raise you a score of 3-1(700/1) and i've put 50p on it.
