Richest Club V Richest Owners In The World?

[qblockpete]

If it all goes pear shaped this season, do we have to consider getting promoted by doing it the "team down the road" way?

Splashing the cash and take the league by storm, or do we continue to do it gradually?

Spend spend spend.Will we ever see a 5/6 mill player bought by us or even a 10 mill.Cant see it in my lifetime and im 40 and fit.

Well you have to do it gradually, it takes time to build a winning side and a quality side in numbers... So I believe a 4 year plan is about the right way in doing that.
I still think, however, that the board are not going for it this year, but are merely testing the waters and probably seeing how far we can with what we've added over the summer. I maintain that next season 2010/11 will be our year for promotion.

I think we are just 2/3 players off a top 2 side, if they can add 2/3 quality players next summer then I think the 4 year plan being promoted is the right way forward for QPR.

to be honest if it goes pair shaped then its clear that the board have made the mistake..

we are really only 3/4 players off having a capable team which can win this league.

sadly two of those 4 are strikers!

we would need to reevaluate our team first.

It's not like we would have to spend billions! Around 10-15 million spent wisely would probably see you out of this league that's not a great deal when you look at the money you gain just from being in the Premiership!

[cross it Dave]

I wonder what our sponsors think about how well the project is doing?

The project is 2 years old now,they must have a view, after all their supposedly pumping in record amounts.

What they consider their investment worthwhile so far?

[superckat]

It would be interesting to know what the sponsorship deals are. How much of that sponsorship money does the club lose out on if we don't get promoted and when it runs out.

Also I can't see the board spending big to get us out of here. There are comments of us being 2 or 3 players short of gaining promotion. Well at least 3 of what can be considered key players are loans who could well go back. Can anybody see players like Stewart, Vine, Buscaky, Cook and Rowlands improving next season. I feel their best days are now behind them and fans are already questioning whether they are good enough now.

I think us achieving the 4 year target is tougher now that it was a year ago.

Spend big, in Championship terms and reap the rewards in the Prem.

[westsussexranger]

spend big on a poacher

we need to spend in order to score!

It my heart of hearts i think your right.

Spend big now, and the cash that the club will rake in by virtue of being in the premiership will be enormous.
I'm afraid that in modern football, doing it the Chelshyte way, is more often than not, the only sure way of gaining success.
I think we'd need more than four years if we're hoping to do it as cheaply as possible.
Some have said we need 3 to four players to make us contenders, they're right. But we need them now, especially the one or two who are adept at putting the ball in the net regularly.

Hooper=£2million-£2.5million?
Earnshaw=£3million-£3.5million?
Spurr=£1million-£1.5million?

so about £7.5 million to get out of this league and how much do you get when you go up from tv rights, sponsorships... etc. ?

You've hit the nail on the head, mate. I just wish the, errr, businessmen (s******) on the board of directors at Loftus Rd could get their heads around the concept of speculating in order to accumulate tens of millions of pounds.
Or is that akin to rocket science for Flav & Co?

The word butchered in the brackets was, S N I G G E R ffs. :anger:
