QPR take out £15M (or was it 150 million) loan for a new stadium despite relegation

[vblockranger]

Fernandes comes across as a lovely bloke but we have had 2 dire seasons under his chairmanship since he took over. Naivety? maybe..but that isnt something you would want in a chairman. We can only hope that he has learned from his first 2 failed seasons in charge (maybe he learned something from the Swansea and Norwich board that came up the same time as us?) I suppose we will find out next season or maybe Tony might take a step backward and let Amit (if he even wants it) have a go again? Amit seems to be a much safer pair of hands and doesnt have so many other business's and projects going on. Less spin and more substance for next season would be nice anyway

How many times does Fernandes have to come out and explain stuff?

We are lucky he doesn't say "sod these ungrateful bastar**" and go to another club.

[Kirill]

Yeah, that's what we need right now most of all, a new stadium.

Hope not because the amount of money he has spent on getting us relegated we now depend on him to survive.

good PR though

He trusted Hughes that was his one and only mistake.

One and only?

[jfish]

One and only?

Within reason yes, he upset a few with the moving of the family stand etc and catering is still pony etc, and someone got refused entry to the arsenal game cos they were late.!!

But all in all is doing a fantastic job. When did you ever think we would get a training ground and a potential new stadium?

Think he also used us a little too much to promote his other stuff.....Pre season tour, Ji Sung Park etc. Hughes given free reign and Tony seeing these established "names" coming in as players could only have been a good thing when using a premiership team to promote your airline. Even had our "big names" ferried back on a QPR plane :-) He is a PR man through and through and never misses an opportunity to big up his airline. Uses his F1 team in the same manner (his F1 team is also pretty **** too btw..coincidence? :-) )

The interesting facts are journo's have got facts wrong yet again. Its £150m and I bet that will get some screaming on here. You don't get this kind of bank support without some greater detail based on I wanna build a stadium. So lets play the game of where is it going to be. I will start, its not going to be LR. Cop out I know but lets get the ball rolling.

@TyburnLeveller?

As for location, dont think it will be too far from LR

loads of clubs go to Asia for pre season tours, Park could have turned out to be a great signing. Who would have thought when we signed he was going to have a bad season? You dont play for united that long if your not a good player.

Nothing wrong with using all his brands to promote his others, surely good business?

Where have you heard that ? 150M? And if not a stadium what do you think it could be for? Or you think it will be somewhere other than Loftus Road?

TF has said it. Its cost associated with a new stadium.

Yer just saw that on twitter..£150million loan, hope the gamble pays off. We are a small club who dont need a big stadium and if Tony is trying to turn us into a big club that do he has made a **** poor attempt at it so far.
