    Since Les came in, Matt Phillips, Fer, Austin, McCarthy have all been sold for fees while Caulker and Sandro have been loaned out for periods with fees. Both Phillips and Austin were sold at a profit, Fer was sold for about the same as he came in for and McCarthy went for a profit. We also stopped Green getting a new contract and as a result we managed to get in probably the best keeper at rangers in many many years.

    The fact that our oldest signing this season has been 25 bar Lynch says a lot about the direction the club is taking and considering that our first team signings were: Sylla, Borysuik, Cousins, Lynch, Ngbakoto, Bidwell and Wszolek just shows on paper how well we've done with signings since Les has come in.

    For me, it's easy to back Les as I think he's done a good job on the footballing side and he comes across very professional.

                    We aren't building a championship squad. We're building a squad that can succeed in the championship and if they do, will succeed in the prem. No more unnecessary turnover because we tried to get short term success. If you're getting promoted off the back of players who are made for any level but the top level, you're going to have a hard time staying at the top without another overhaul.

                      His legend is tarnished, he had a very tough job to do in fairness and he didn't have enough experience to be hired in the first place, too many big mistakes (manager hires and squad building) loved him as a player but get him out now!

                            If you're building a Championship squad, you're not leaving the championship for very long.

                              Les is doing a good job. The choice of appointing a manager is not that easy. A look at Man. Utd will give a clear picture. They appointed one of the best managers in the world, however they are struggling are they are? And they spent millions to bring the best players to their club. There's no magic wound in football. All of a sudden things can fit into place. The important things are to make good decisions in a sensible way and with an aim. We started to get sensible by signing players that fit our size. Maybe JFH did have a lot more to learn before he could join a Championship club. However, I do believe that Les is doing a good job and it will only be a big pity if we revert back to the likes of HR who did not actually fit the way QPR should be run.

                                We was never building a promotion squad this season so what's your rush ? More haste less speed build in haste repent at leasure and that's what's happened to our season full of dross under the guise we're building for the future so just put up with untill the sun shines
