Personally I wouldn't mind making do with what we've got, living within our means , spending more time in the championship, STAYING where we are, OUR home, and getting a manager like Gigi in again that gets the best out of players and knows how to entertain the fans. |  |

isn't it the financial accounts of this year rather than last year which relate to the potential fine? I'm not sure how the football league can fine a club for something they did in the Premier League |  | | |

I remember Gigi's team continously throwing away matches in the last 5 mins.
I remember Flavio saying that we'd be top of the league if football matches lasted 85 minutes. | | | |

Still better to watch than the current lot trying to induce the whole crowd into a coma. | |

Checking the FFP rules we are exempt from a fine if we don't get promoted but can be hit with a transfer embargo in January 2015 - think that how it reads ? |
Looking at those figures we must be heading for a near £50m loss this season, before transfers.
Samba £12m, Remy £10m, Taraabt £3m - probably £25m back in but must have spent near £15m on Austin, Phillips etc. So overall loss likely to be around £40m.
To put that into FFP context, £40m worth of fines would wipe most of the Sky money if promoted, then there's increased player spending/wages. If we don't go up then a certain transfer embargo but a chance to get the high earners off the wage bill.
It doesn't look good either way, but at the same time, the option of staying in the Championship next year doesn't seem such a disaster as previously thought, particularly if it creates a more long term view. |  | | |

This is all over the papers, no wonder other clubs hate us so much.
Can someone please pull Tony's pants up! | |

Some meaty and embarrassing facts there. Just another day for your average QPR supporter.
But fear not, I for one am supremely confident that this story will cause Harry and his elite coaching group to roll up their sleeves and go about the task of gaining promotion with even more gusto. |  | | |

£10m for Remy?!
Have you seen what top class strikers go for - £25m minimum. | | | |

complete mismanagement. All this shows is that TF/ the board have us by the balls. For some one who runs a business its astonishing they have let this happen.
Yes TF is a nice guy and all that, but this seriously puts the club at risk in the long term. |
disagree with this, I think if anything it's the other way around.
we've not only over-spent on players, but also executives, coaches, scouts, physios, groundstaff, etc.
this is the collective failure of Warnock (post-promotion), Hughes and Redknapp. The owners have backed the managers and hoped we would be at least an established mid-table premiership team by now.
They haven't shirked at anything which makes the failure of the 3 managers even worse.
If the owners knew what they know now then they wouldn't have touched us with a barge-pole. Their mistakes were wanting things too quickly, employing the wrong managers and worse of all being unlucky.
Still believe they are in it for the long-term though (or until they run out of money) |  |

Well Remy could be our saviour in terms of fines or embargos, I hope you are right but given the financial awareness Rangers have shown so far I wouldn't bank on it. | | | |

The board are to blame. A failed policy on managers, scouts, players... I can't blame managers and players for trying to get as much money as possible, it's up to the chairman to control them and say No!
What chairman who has money to burn allows an applicant for the vacancy of manager to interview the club? | | | |
| QPR Accounts... on 15:04 - Mar 6 with 2507 views | QPR442 |
makes me sick thinking our club wasted so much money on old crap players that didn't even care about us.
TF and Co really need to stop chasing a dream and do what he said, in that we need to build from bottom up.
Last 3 years has just been about throwing money after money for a quick fix and once again it has not worked.
The only losers will be us fans |  | | |

if you would have looked at this board a few months ago, the sea change of opinion on here is tsunami like. | |

The most worrying thing is the last line of what they said on Sky Sports : -
"Owner Tony Fernandes said that the future of the club depended on getting back into the Premier at the end of this season"
He didn't say what would happen to the club if promotion to the Premier was not achieved. I think the board would consider walking away from the club by the sound of it.
The only bit of good news was that the club would be punished by having to observe a transfer embargo for the following season. At least that might mean we start playing a few juniors in the first team. And Bagpuss would not want to be around with that restriction because he'd have to do some work with what he had on the books. [Post edited 6 Mar 2014 15:22]

I think that's Sky trying to sensationalise it. TF said recently that our aim was a quick return but not vital. However saying all that losing this much money is not the way to go. | | | |

Losses like that are inexcusable. Something drastic needs to happen.
Forget sacking Harry now, we cant afford to!! |  |

I'm not convinced it would Dave. We've more than enough about us with the players we already have contracted for next season to make a very decent fist of the league. I think the embargo would be next January anyway, so nothing to preclude the usual gratuitous dozen new faces in the summer. |  | | |

Does a transfer embargo stop you buying or signing players?
For example, we have 15 odd players leaving this summer. Does that mean we wouldnt be able to resign any or bring any in on a free? | |
