Sam Allardyce whose last contract saw him paid £6m for six months' work at Everton? Or a different person by the same name that fits under our budget? | | | |

He would want millions. We've got buttons. | |

You know what I mean. Warnock mould. Keep us in this division while we buy academy cast offs | | | |

Dave Mc on Twitter on 20:56 - Aug 19 by Hooped_Pullie | If McLaren and co were to go now, the settlement would be minimal. Either a new manager comes in on more or less what we have been paying McLaren, or (as suggested elsewhere) Chris Ramsey - already on the payroll - steps up. FFP or no FFP, we're not shaking the buckets just yet. |
Why would the settlement be minimal. But whatever it is it is still money leaving the club and that has to be earned not subsidised by the owners many have said we are even now close to breaking FFP. | | | |
Dave Mc on Twitter on 22:12 - Aug 19 with 3104 views | BucksRanger | Looking for a new manager and someone to shore up a pitiful defence? Someone who knows the Championship inside out. Can't pay a vast amount overall? Obvious solution - Nedum Onuoha - player / manager. | | | |

Dave Mc on Twitter on 21:22 - Aug 19 by Esox_Lucius | Has anyone got a top ten list of times when sacking the manager has worked for QPR? OK... a top five list... any time it has ever worked for us? |
That says a lot more about the managers we go for rather than the decision to get rid of a bad one. I'm not for a second saying McClaren should go but judging by what i've seen so far unless we see a massive improvement in the coming weeks he won't last long | | | | Login to get fewer ads

In 20 years of him reporting on QPR I don't think i've ever known him to be wrong, it gets annoying after a while | | | |

Mick McCarthy is the one that springs to mind for the job you are talking about, old school take no crap but can't say thats someone I'd want as manager. | | | |

Worked wonders at Ipswich who are probably worse than we are. If not from that mould why can’t we find a Wagner or an Eddie Howe | | | |
Dave Mc on Twitter on 22:31 - Aug 19 with 2982 views | stevec | And since Les stepped in around Jan 15 his graph would show a continual decline, I cannot think of single time we’ve been going upwards. At a club like QPR you simply don’t need a DOF. McLaren should have been given a clear remit from the owners and likely expenditure for players. I cannot believe he would have come here if he’d known he wouldn’t be making new signings. Les should go and McLaren should deal directly with the board. Hoos can do the excel spreadsheets Too many cooks at this mess of a football club. | | | |

McClaren has been given a clear remit though, if idiots like me on the outside could work out we'd stopped spending money I'm sure McClaren could work it out, he even said in his early interviews he was in to work with the players rather than made signings. The 10 years before Les came in show exactly why we needed a DOF, when we had them in the past (Paladini and Rigg) they were usually people who worked very closely with agents and cost us a fortune. It was always going to take years to fix a decade of complete miss management and a near miracle for anyone to achieve it. McClaren having to deal direct with the board won't make a jot of difference to how he's set his teams up which has been abysmal so far. | | | |

Slaven Bilic? Much younger. Excellent win ratio. Known to work with younger players. Not that we could afford him if they do eject Steve. | |

Dave Mc on Twitter on 22:42 - Aug 19 with 2917 views | VancouverHoop | Having read most of the posts on here today, and being aware of the clubs awkward financial dilemma, I'm inclined to believe Mclaren might get a longer rope than he might in other circumstances. Basically we might not be able to afford to sack him. | | | |

Dave Mc on Twitter on 23:02 - Aug 19 with 2820 views | WrightUp5hit___ | Mick McCarthy? Nigel Pearson? Dear sweet Jesus is that the sound of the bottom of the barrel being scraped? First fix, let's go for tactics. Saggy chops thought Rio was going to lead us safely through the Prem leading a back three. He had a pre season to see it was never going to work but was still holding on to his faith when forced to confront his stupidity. Perhaps Steve will have an Epiphany, or perhaps not. | | | |

What's the chances we sack an x England, x Ireland and x Wales manager by May I.e McLaren, McCarthy and Coleman and have a Lawrie Sanchez and Gordon Strachan double act at the end of the season just to cover every one of the home nations. [Post edited 19 Aug 2018 23:28]

Dave Mc on Twitter on 07:55 - Aug 20 with 2301 views | DubaiR | Carlos Carvalhal is available to my knowledge, strikes me as similar to gi gi but speaks English. I bet Wednesday would have him back in a heartbeat and he almost kept Swansea up. Plays good football, know's the league and speaks English. Pearson has as many failures as he has successes. Personally has to be Carlos or Warburton | | | |
Dave Mc on Twitter on 08:11 - Aug 20 with 2241 views | Esox_Lucius | Everyone seems to be labouring under the misapprehension that we have the money to pay off SMC and attract proven managers, pay them what they are worth and get them to operate with no transfer budget. That is not just a case of losing touch with reality but evidence that reality isn't even a factor in your thinking. Worst case scenario is that we are stuck with what we have for the immediate future and whatever division we are playing in we struggle. Best case scenario is that we are stuck with what we have for the immediate future and whatever division we are playing in we struggle. We are on one of QPR's cyclical downturns so strap in and ride it out. We have survived two such downturns since I have been watching QPR and I have no reason to not believe that I may still have one more ride on the happy train before shuffling off. After the Ale Faurlin debacle it was obvious that the League wanted to pay us back and that is why they invented FFP; to make sure that they could disrupt the fan base, put us in financial trouble and eventually see us go out of business, it's up to the fans to make sure that doesn't happen. | |

I think thats what he has tried to do but a big gamble if the loans don't come off or they are recalled in January | | | |
