Sir Bobby Robson..briatore out

[kron-1664]

i watched the wonderful ceremony on SSN for the late and great Sir Bobby Robson last night and remembered that 1990 world cup, what great memories and what a great man...full of enthusiasm and integrity.

... then straight after we got the opposite end of the spectrum a cheating bully who unfortunately for us owns and brings shame to MY club. He is a disgrace to our good name, hes gotta go sooner rather than later.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt until the verdict on Monday but now it aint about money its the honour and integrity of QPR that is more important.

Briatore Out

i'd prefer it if sir bobby wasnt mentioned in the same post as the large one

I agree to some of your post, however...to compare a footballing legion to a business man is not really fair. There are alot of sc um about and Bobby Robson would show most people up.

If it wasnt for Flavio you would not have a club without his investment we may well have gone out of business.

Not quite sure what he has to do with the tragic loss of Bobby Robson to be honest.

I also could not care less about F1.

Personally I'm pleased Flavio got involved with QPR, still lets keep kicking the guy that has put in a fortune to our club whilst he is down....and now we are using the Bobby Robson angle quite absurd.

the two tangents are exponentially wide apart and i agree with the absurd bit very tenuous

Funky, what fortune has he put into the club, roughly breakdown the £'s so I can understand.

very little of the money spent came from his personal account its mostly the sponsorship and the mittels that have been behind the improvements.

[WeAreQPR12]

Sponsorships yes but the mittels have not put in much at all. Lets not forget they only have 20%, so why would they?

[paulmason]

Its a talking shop, all I hear is Paladidni does a great job, but no one can say what he does on a day to day basis and now, people claim Flavio has spent large amounts of his own money, but no one knows roughly how much has come out of his wallet.

[WeAreQPR12]

Sponsors have paid for it.
I don't think any of our owners are down financially.
Gianni has done good things though for this club and I don't understand why he is such a disliked man.

[paulmason]

So to get this 100% correct, Flavio has spent lots of other peoples money, so he is not needed financially then ?

Sorry but you know as well as i do that there were other very interested parties waiting to buy into QPR, so the Briatori saved us is bowlox, fed up with hearing that to be honest.

Whats the point I'm not going to change your mind but if you honestly think Flavio Briatore has not put a fair amount of wedge in then thats fine.

With respect that's wrong very wrong.

The only other consortium that was looking to get involved was Bill Power and even he has said that it would of only been as a stepping stone to trying to get further investment in.

We went 18 months in administration without one single investor coming in for the club in the end we had to hock the ground to get us out of the mess.

People can believe all they want but there was only ever one serious offer on the table for the club and that was the investment from Flavio Briatore with a deal that was put together by Gianni and the Directors of the club at the time

Ah the old classic

I have heard that Bill Power was heading a consortium but how much could he really have invested and why did he step aside to let Flavio takeover?

I have asked this many many times but who were the other groups of investers we are contantly assured would have snapped us up as I never hear any names!!
