Questions for Lee on 20:03 - Jan 25 by DavieQPR | Love that 'loans blocking younger players pathways'. What younger players? What younger player is good enough to play in the first team? |
To answer the question; 1. Andre Dozzell has been about as effective as Iroegbunham overall, i.e. not very effective, but at least he’s ours. 2. Taylor Richards is also ours and needs opportunities and a run of games. That said, I’m not a believer in the “mustn’t do loans” strategy. If they a. come at the right cost ie. No loan fee, 2. Fill a position you do not have or cannot buy, and 3. Increase your chances of climbing the league, then it makes sense to me. What doesn’t make sense is blocking/delaying specific pathways of owned players (and the repercussions e.g. asset depreciation, contract renewal issues), or when loan players are not particularly contributing, but still get picked regardless. In short, there needs to be the right balance applied throughout the season. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Along with Stainrods Elbow, if in fact they are different people! Perhaps they can apply to be on the board and head up recruitment as they have such a handle on it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Deflection. It’s a real opportunity to put your money where your mouth is, otherwise your are just shouting at a wall. I’m being serious. If you are genuinely concerned about the direction the club is going in to the extent that you have on a powerless forum, you should put it to those in power. As an aside I’d like to hear what they have to say. [Post edited 26 Jan 2023 14:24]

I have to be careful what I say here but at a home game before Christmas my brother came with me and he queued up for beers and the guy in front of him who was ordering stuff for him and his kids went to pay with his card and the 6’5 server asked if he had any cash. The man replied her only had a tenner and the bill was about 20 quid. The tenner was taken and put straight in to his pocket. He did the same thing to my brother. 2 Carlsberg £12. Brother had his phone out and again bloke asked do you have any cash. My brother checked his pocket and told him he only had a fiver. Bloke took the fiver and handed over the two Carlsberg. I have not seen him again since and was thinking of pinging QPR Operations but maybe they factor in an element of theft when costing their business model and hiring casual staff. I would ask Hoos what the contract is and how is stock control checked against revenue or do we charge companies a set amount to rent out the space and the stock and takings are their own to worry about. | ![](/images/avatars/1332.gif) |

If its outsourced I would guess the company pays us to sell there, and then any theft like that is the contractor's issue, rather than the clubs. | ![](/images/avatars/20196.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I wish he was serving me on Saturday Few years ago in the blue and white bar, my mate ordered about 10 pints. As he was getting served he past them back to me two at a time, and I past them back further again. As he was given the last two pints, my mate just walked away before paying, and no-one said a word | ![](/images/avatars/1451.gif) |

I've done so already, but one or two imbeciles on here just poked fun and even said there's no way LH could be expected to give a truthful response to the points I raised (though these did get through to a recent Fans' Forum). Embarrassing, really. (Them not me.) Speaking truth to power just isn't something a lot of people want to do. [Post edited 27 Jan 2023 22:03]

Oh yes, that's right, anyone who criticises the owners or their minions is the same person. Silly me for questioning happy clapper groupthink. And this account hasn't 'put my money where my mouth is' because the owners will ultimately do what they like. Perhaps I should self-immolate like a Vietnamese monk because Niko has a four-year contract? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I just think you’ll get a more useful response to your concerns from Lee Hoos than you will from BazzaInTheLoft or HoopsTillIDie1976. Let’s meet up for a pint next time your over here mate. Believe it or not I share some of your concerns. [Post edited 27 Jan 2023 22:40]

Definition of a bad performance I suppose. 25 first team players in 8 years following a 10 year gap after Richard Langley is pretty decent, especially bearing in mind the Hackney Marshes standard facilities. | ![](/images/avatars/6600.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
