Starting to like what I'm hearing

[vblockranger]

I reckon an announcement will be made next weds/ thurs and I'm led to believe that loftus rd has a value of £26m

So does Loftus Road currently belong to QPR? or Fernandes' lot? If the Loftus Road site is developed will that belong to QPR? or Fernandes? Will the new ground belong to the club? or remain the property of Fernandes/Mittalls? I am hoping long term the club will have some security ... and that we will not be forever dependant on Fernandes or others of his ilk.

I like shi*tholes,its football.lads I know from arsenal don't go know more.be lovely to have a cold beer,toilet roll and comfy seat but I have that at Home.don't get me wrong,a shiny new stadium would get me excited but would take years to build back the atmosphere again

It wont take years as long as the ground is built the same,what we will need to do is make sure that the vocal support is situated behind the goals and put the away support at the top of a side stand. We must use every advantage possible when creating the new atmosphere

The stadium will be truly amazing and will generate show much income away from football.
This is when phil beard will come into his own.
With the air Asia naming rights the clubs future is looking bright.
Low season tickets will rival teams like Fulham for the floating support .

Well it certainly weren't when he was negotiating players contracts.

spot on.... should be sacked just for that. But hold on Uncle Tony will need him later to turn our venue/ground/retail outlets/cinema/hotel into an O2 beater.

I cannot wait to hear more. Clear as day light it will be announced a little while after the season ends Sunday.

I get the feeling that ground will be amazing, Fernandes & co have ths vision of a stadium with a lot more to it. I know it will be amazing, we're so lucky to have Fernandes

Yeah know what you mean , these past 2 seasons under his ownership have been truly unforgettable.

I would think that as the board purchased the debt it would be an asset but with what money a new multiplex stadium would generate maybe the club would become self funded but would always be owned by someone. Nobody really knows on what basis the club was purchased.

Amit Bhatia owns the ground I thought not 'Uncle Tony'

So know one really knows...not very transparent is it. Just have to hope that at the end of it all the club is secure. Our one great asset has always been our ground.

What will they get for loftus rd, what would be built there.
Best bet is the club build flats there and gain constant income from them ie ground rent on say between 150-250 flats

Is the land freehold or leasehold?

It would depend which it is I guess.

That's right with Flavio, did Flavio sell his half to Amit or to Tony?

We don't own the ground now so how is it our one great asset?

Yeah, terrible job he's done by sanctioning a new academy and training ground, planning a new stadium, and giving managers money to spend in the transfer market......

look at facts Relegated, and a bit of PR chat about a new ground and Phil Beard who by the looks of it should be working for Mecca Bingo

I don't blame the chairman or the board for our relegation. I blame the people responsible for the footballing side of the club ie the managers and players. Fernandes selected two well-respected managers and allowed them to get on with the jobs they were paid to do. Unfortunately they let us and the board down by not doing their jobs.

The fact is, Fernandes didn't miss penalties, goal-scoring opportunities, failed to pick up a forward, misplace passes etc etc. the ****** useless players bought by Hughes did.

Haven't built nothing yet and a fool is easily parted with his money.

Other than that spectacular job his done so far
