OR, we might end up paying for him to go to Cambridge for the season...
Remember, it wasn't just QPR and Mick Beale who thought Taylor Richards was a good idea.
In order to break out of this cycle QPR has to go back to its 90's model of selling its best player every season and replacing them with, ideally, better prospects.
Sell a Sinton, buy a Sinclair
That type of idea.
It's ambitious though, I've only seen Brighton and Brentford do this in recent years.
And even Brentford can get unstuck with the odd Toney, who will probably not realise the massive payday for the club they thought he would |

I reckon the club would lose money if we had a Europe run. The prize for the League cup is pennies down the sofa now, no wonder its become a joke, with no Premier League teams bothering to compete in the early rounds |

Football is a great game, two people can watch the same match and come away with completely different opinions of what they saw.
In your opinion I'm wrong about Willock. I thought Chair was superb last season as well. Easily our best player and should have been in most EFL team of the season picks, especially considering the court case that was hanging over him.
I think Willock was poorly advised, I presume GA was told not to pick him, as the owners wanted to show that players who are out of contract don't get to use QPR as a shop window.
MC had to relent on this as other options like Smyth are not as good.
Is Chris Willock good enough to be one of the top earners at QPR?
Probably not, in my opinion |

Don't want to be "that guy" but CW got one goal in Feb against Rotherham
Not sure he did a huge amount to keep us up, or secure his dream move to Cardiff to be fair |

Knowing what we know about those two managers it was probably more about what % cut they got in their pocket out of the move |

Les got loads of shit from fans when he was first playing.
Then once he was in the squad and doing well, getting England call ups everytime a transfer offer came in the manager would threaten to quit if we sold Les.
I can probably see where he is coming from to be fair |

£33 per day for me to commute the 19 miles into town now.
It's actually cheaper for me to drive and park, Kahn hasn't got a clue |

I met LC when he came to Mums work at Charing X hospital.
He was a very nice guy, and I think anyone at the top of anything in life (the 1%'ers) have something about them to maintain that drive to be the best.
100% LC would have been using supplements, like every other athlete in the world.
But, for my money, I don't think he's ever knowingly cheated with performance enhancing drugs.
By you're friends logic Cristiano Ronaldo must be bang at it as well, he's got hardly any body fat into his late 30's...
That book I recommended was great, I might read it again now. I'm sure it went into detail about how something that was allowed one year wasn't the next and the testers were always a bit behind everything |

Is the whole "build 'em up to knock 'em down" culture in the press only typical in Britain?
I grew up watching Linford and it was horrible to watch him torn down in public.
There is a great book about this era of sprinting.

Was it ever announced what the punishment was for Joey Bartons various escapades were?
I guess the Man City game was just treated like a normal red card and some money went into the end of year party fund? |

The Fak bros going to see Claire at work to basically say "my friend fancies you"
It's more like Hollyoaks than anything good.
Then they get carried away about a plasterboard wall, or a sprinkler test, or putting too much salt in something.
They get some bits right, like that 'forks' episode, and then other bits are so far off it destroys the illusion of watching the show |

Struggled through 'The Bear'
Its probably been the most annoying TV series I've watched in years. Like most products for streaming it looks good and has obviously had money thrown at it, but...
The characters are so unlikeable, the situations are not realistic and I'm not actually sure that most of the characters are acting.
People on the internet talking like its the best TV show ever.
--It's not Hill Street Blues by any stretch |

Let him go for any fee, but make sure we get a sell on.
Then if he ever did take off at least we might get something back.
However, I can't see him winning young player of the year at QPR again after scoring less than five goals in a full season.
What a shame though, as he looked like he might have been the next Les Ferdinand, and while we still had Sir Les at the club to 1:1 coach him... :( |
