With our current fan base, I sincerely doubt that anyone available would unite us at all. Before the first game someone would have provided a derogatory name to the new incumbent or found some previous association or tenuous link not to their liking and used that as evidence as to why someone was unsuitable. We have the possibly the most poisonous seemingly overly entitled and possibly short term fan base outside of Chelshit, Scouseland or Manushyted at the moment. We are a middling Championship club with less than average facilities, a small antiquated ground and modest attendance. We have a squad in transition as we move to adapt our outgoings to match our income. But somehow people expect that will happen overnight and that constantly seeking new blood or booing our players and staff when things are going less well will suddenly get us promoted to our apparently rightful place in the premiership. Whoever comes next will have a hell of a task to get to grips with what now must be a demotivated and baffled squad. All those youth team players who thought they might have chance will need to think again. Those who broke through to the squad may find themselves out again. Players that were brought in because they bought into JFH's ideas, training and philosophy and the long term plan will likewise be concerned. I am so hoping that we do well, find the right fit as manager for us and get new manager bounce and momentum. But how many will really fancy this place and expectations that will be seemingly be in weeks or two months for sudden progress, when the reality is that it will take several years to get back into something resembling what QPR is about after more than a decade of decline? | ![](/images/avatars/1395.gif) |

Mark warburton anyone on 12:34 - Nov 6 with 4321 views | MrSheen | Just watching the game at the moment and their defence is a shambles. Warburton obviously insists on them playing out from the back and it's an accident waiting to happen. The players just aren't good enough. Nice to see the goals from two old boys, Clint and Andrew Davies. | ![](/images/avatars/1288.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

No need to expand,brad. Regular readers of LFW will know just what Brand brad represents. (No?...me either.) If you say 'no thanks' that's good enough for us.. reasons/schmeasons ..and evidence from experts is highly over-rated too as Michael Gove will tell you. As for Benny The Ball no back up to the assertion 'that ship has sailed ling ago' Out of a pretty piss poor quality list of candidates mentioned by the bookies I'd go for Mark Warburton eloquent,confident,knows what this division is all about,talks a lot of sense Mark Warburton even if looking at the whole of his time at Glasgow Rangers his reputation can be seen as going marginally backwards..why the fook anybody buys pricey dressing room divider Joey at 34 is beyond my ken. What an attacking flair-filled entertaining side he assembled at Griffin just a couple of years ago though. Moses Odubajo,Jake Bidwell,Harlee Dean,Andre Gray,Jota,Alan Judge,Alex Pritchard,Stuart Dallas,Jonathan Douglas great to watch.A lot of these players careers progressing onto bigger and better things after their Griffin spell and providing money for reinvestment. The football was the antithesis of JFH's grind it out long-ball nick it by one philosophy. However maybe his time in Scotland can be viewed like Eddie Howe at Burnley..a particular club that has a lot in place,is just not a natural fit for whatever reason. That doesn't bust their reputation or mean they are a spit/mediocre manager forever though. Football for me used to be as easy as ABC ; Anyone But Countski Now it's ABS. Tim Out boooooooooooooooooooo You can stick your gillet,tie,barbour and sleeveless jumper up yr jacksie and go and carve a rep in the 4th tier or non-league if you want anyone to respect you. #PayAndEarnYourDues arrogant twotface No,no,no.

Mark warburton anyone on 14:15 - Nov 6 with 4146 views | Benny_the_Ball | The patently obvious does not require qualification but I'll indulge you. Quite simply the board ignored him when he was available for nothing and he is now manager of Glasgow Rangers. Why would the board have a sudden and costly change of heart? Moreover, why would Warburton leave them to join little ol' QPR (especially after being overlooked first time around)? Don't get me wrong, I wanted him first time around and would be reasonably happy if he came but I can't see it happening. | ![](/images/avatars/18320.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Mark warburton anyone on 14:50 - Nov 6 with 4096 views | DannytheR | Even allowing for the fact we lay down for them, Brentford under Dean Smith looked a lot better to me than Brentford under Warburton did. Reminds me a bit of another notably well-run club whose supposedly hotshot manager went elsewhere, only for the club to actually continue to do very well indeed in his absence. I think they were called Burton Albion. Still, good point against the might of Ross County today. [Post edited 6 Nov 2016 14:51]

Have to agree to disagree,Danny. Matthew Benham was absolutely crackers mid-season to undermine the best manager in the Bees history. Dean Smith is doing a good job but having seen seven Bees games this season the style entertainment and flair of the current Bees can not compare to Warburton's side.Warburton finished his Brentford managerial career with 40 wins, 16 draws, 22 losses and a winning percentage of 51.28%, the highest of any Brentford manager. Dean Smith 39% at BFC. | ![](/images/avatars/1352.gif) |

TGRRRSSS, Warburton in 2014/5 when he was undermined was working at the same level i.e. the second tier as Dean Smith is now. Paul Clement, the clear leader on Brian's poll as the next LR incumbent, to my mind showed at Derby he couldn't cut it as a manager - a touch like McLaren post Newcastle I initially thought*,I'm a bit surprised how he's got them rejuvenated,as of now,perhaps Brian Kidd a better example - and is more suited to being a very good no.2 at one of the world's best clubs. More reason than most to see QPR as a big step-down career-wise,financially too surely and hassle he just doesn't need. * By the way what a chip wedge pass and over-the-shoulder volley strike from Will Hughes and Marcus Bent yesterday. A skill soaked stupendous mudder fugger of a goal. Warburton didn't 'blow the whole situation up' mid-season Hanham did. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/brentford-refuse-to- [Post edited 6 Nov 2016 15:55]

Dean Smith 39% at BFC. |
But the success he had managing Brentford was built on an almost unique foundation - a 2 and a half year run-up as sporting director, including bringing through the same young players who then played for him as manager. He won't ever get that again, and he certainly won't get it here. To be honest if the example of Warburton and Brentford teaches us anything, it's that we should appoint Les as manager. (And no, I'm not suggesting we do that). You've seen more of Brentford than I have recently, and I'm happy to take your word for it - but they've hardly gone into freefall without Warburton's influence, and as we all saw the other week, the signings they've made since his departure have been annoyingly promising. Whereas he went up to Glasgow, and signed yes, Clint Hill, but also Krancjar and Barton, the former an obvious waste of time and the latter clearly a huge risk that has backfired horribly because it turned out he couldn't manage him and had misjudged the whole, hugely expensive fiasco. I've usually got more sympathy with managers than chairmen, but I imagine if you're Matthew Benham you might sometimes think that if Warburton hadn't blown that whole situation up mid-season, you might now be running a Premiership club.

Was he undermined in the way we thought he was (and I did) or did he want a different route to the boss who was a strong enough chairman to say no we're doing it my way. Thankfully for him, his way seems to work.... this far. | ![](/images/avatars/1291.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
