UPDATE:

Fernandes tweeted this today:

"Loan for qpr is for new stadium. Next 2 weeks will be hopefully good news. But work is starting. We will not say anymore on stadium."

Seems strange that the s/holders would take a loan out at a cost to the club when they have money themselves...

Gets me thinking that it may be for the warren farm development - if there is an investment plan with a pay back period they may be financing that with bank debt?

OK now I'm more inclined to believe we're fúcked.
Relegation doesn't really bother me, it's the danger of going bust that really shits me up. And this news doesn't sound good.

QPR - "shit but local"

Strikes me as politics & relationship building between the club/shareholders & the bank, particularly with finance for a new stadium required at some point. I'm not concerned by this to be honest but can understand why others will be. I look forward to everyone in the media etc claiming that it's proof that we're f**ked...

Glass half full: it may be tax efficient to take out a loan - particularly at low interest rates. The shareholders can easily cover this sort of sum if the bank demands repayment.

Glass half empty: If it goes pear-shaped, Barclays Bank are our landlord. If we have to borrow this sort of money now, how the hell will we survive with Championship money next year if we can't offload most of the players?

"Thank you for supporting Queens Park Rangers Steep Staircase"... and I thought I'd signed up for a rollercoaster.

I'm not concerned at all. Bank finance may be the most effective way to fund the planned investments and almost certainly TF and Mittals will have given personal guarantees.

Have faith - our shareholders know how to run businesses.

That's what I meant for me this is very worrying and worst case could be the start of an exit strategy from TF

The mortgage charge is in favour of Barclays Bank Hong Kong branch.

Maybe the Malaysians are borrowing to finance Airways expansion and are using the same lender to finance QPR. Maybe they have assets and shares and no cash, so perhaps either they borrowed personally to put into QPR or they borrowed via QPR, and elected for the latter.

No need to worry because Tone will be giving us our old badge back.

What annoys me is that it's all down to his stupid transfer policy.

or it's just a loan to help finance the club this season and stem the losses ahead of new finacial fair play rules or it could be to help fund a new stadium or well it could be anything really

It could be anything but the sooner we get clarification from the club the better

Whatever it is, Barclays would not be lending money to a club they think is in danger of being put into administration.

Do you know what, I dont actually care. As long as we have a team to support I dont give a monkeys. I'll let the board worry about the cash, between them all they could buy anyone in the world and run them.
