ritchard keys on 11:06 - Feb 1 with 3662 views | ngbqpr | Every radio station I turn on / website I visit seems to have people q'ing up to slag us off. Had to turn R5 off last night - a QPR discussion based purely on rumour & assumption about what we're paying out in fees & wages, no facts - and barely a mention of the players we've offloaded to counter it a bit I'm as scared shitless as the next fan about the "next Pompey" thing if we get relegated....I'm far from convinced a fourth successive window of heavy spending was wise...but from journos and so-called expert pundits, I expect some balance and some research, and I'm not hearing / seeing very much | ![](/images/avatars/7941.gif) |

ritchard keys on 11:22 - Feb 1 with 3551 views | windsorhoop | Lets be honest we dont exactly help ourselves as a club. What the media team should be doing is getting Tony or Amit in front of the SSN cameras for a interview so they can shoot down these rumours and also confirm issues around debt etc. Also people need to understand the difference between debt and loans. From my very poor tax knowledge I understand that if TF was to give us 20mill as a gift then we would have to pay tax on this. If TF or a company lends us 20mill then it is tax free or you pay smaller amount of tax. The question is what are QPR to the mittals and what are we to the group of business men behind Tony. To the mittalls we are a leisure activity and something they could take or leave. I think Amit likes the lifestyle and rubbing shoulders with footballers. I honestly believe he has fallen for QPR like we all have but he also has a good business head and is fast becoming a successful business man in his own right. If he becomes as successfull as his father in law we could become another chelsea or man city. What do we mean to Tony and the group behind him. We are simply an extension of their marketing programme. As long as football stays big in the far east or any markets they wish to expand their business interests into then they will keep pumping money in. Expect us to sign more far east players when we become an established prem club. Ou sponsorship will change between these different companies depending on what products they want to push. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

If people give the club money then they have a choice of having it treated as a repayable loan, (in which case the club looks insolvent on paper), or they buy shares (which turns it into a gift effectively). | ![](/images/avatars/5963.gif) |

ritchard keys on 11:56 - Feb 1 with 3365 views | Toast_R | I think it's the fact QPR get less then 18k at home and the money being thrown around is the standard of a club much bigger, that riles a few people.

This. I find it really strange that so many are getting upset on pundits simply stating what we'd be thinking if it were another club. Face it, our owners ARE throwing money around that even if they can, the CLUB cannot afford. If they are lobbing it around as 'donations' to the club, then why on earth should anyone be worried, but they probably aren't; it'll be loans and how the hell would we be able to pay any of it off if they buggered off? Ah, but so many say that Man U have debt much bigger than ours and no-one worries about them. True, but they have recently been assessed to be the most valuable Sporting Franchise in the WORLD, which means that they will have no shortage of prospective buyers. Like it or not, a debt ridden bag o'shite club like ours was hardly attractive with around £10m of debt; why on earth would you think its attractive with over ten times that debt assuming its outside Sky's cash cow that is the Premier League. As I've said elsewhere, we can do nothing about any of this, so just keep it all crossed and don't get too annoyed at the pundits, who are only calling it as they see it (and they're not wrong on the whole)... | ![](/images/avatars/1742.gif) |

He hosted Simon barker's testimonial dinner at the Hilton Kensington. I'm sure he got a few quid for it but never found him anti-rangers. | ![](/images/avatars/2744.gif) |
