Same old,same old

Worry when its time to worry is my take on it.
All this moaning is madness, would we rather of derby scored the last minute gaol?
Thats worry, trying to get out that division. We are out, why dont we try and enjoy it, especially the build up when we aint even bottom of the league yet.

We're thirteenth. Of course we could always change the name to Aardvark Park Rangers and then we'd be top.

And you keep making exactly the same point ad nauseum TW. We all get your perspective now, there's really no doubt of that, so why dont you just give it a rest?

And of course people stress over stuff they cant do anything about, and of course that defies logic. BUT it still happens, because that's human nature. Some things in life simply defy logic - it's just part of its mystery. Maybe you could learn to be a bit more tolerant of that.

I'll give it a rest Stan, when people stop moaning and fretting when they should be enjoying things....its not as if we have not made any signings...two cracking ones ins Rio and Steven C. the ad nauseam lot are the ones who keeping whining about its 2 weeks till start of the season etc etc. fret fret fret.......how come you are not telling them to give it a rest....its just as tedious and repetive as you think I am.... or is it that the minority opinion is viewed as not valid and therefore needs to be told to button it?

Exactly and spot on.....why don't people enjoy it instead of worrying. 'tis a mystery.

Cally has told you there are medicals due later THIS week! and the mlnge bags still whine , Cally has contacts in the medical world being one of counties foremost leaders in the treatment of Haemorrhoid's he deserves to be respected

I would happily take Hughes & his amigos back as things stand.

Absolutely no way, not least because it would bring Hughes' agent with him. He made a fortune out of us and Hughes was totally out of his depth, lost. Mark my words, Stoke will struggle sooner or later.

[Awin]

Does make me laugh how PB said he was sitting down with HR straight after the playoffs so that we could get business done early...
2 weeks to go and we have got 2 in... So much for a settled teem at the start f the season..... madness...

Fakking ridiculous.

Promotion to the prem has secured us an extra 50,60,70+ million pounds. And we can't spend 10% of that on some new players? Where is the money going? towards our new concert venue?

If we're getting screwed by agents etc. here then why do we not look abroad? The Dutch, Belgian, French, Spanish, Italian, German leagues are full of promising players who won't cost the world.

I would happily take Hughes & his amigos back as things stand. I know he's been demonised here but the reality is he had a ****ing plan, found some decent players and wanted to build something, while this current lot are just winging it.

Think you'll struggle to find many who'd agree with you on your final statement

[brightonr]

Seems to me that a very small minority are just whining for the sake of it and another small minority are just pretending to be happy for the sake of it.

Common sense tells us that we need to be more prudent than we were before. But likewise, you need to be seriously laid back to pretend that the current situation is less than ideal, to put it politely. It's ridiculous to be at the stage we are this close to the start of the season.

I'd rather play kids than make signings that Hughes and Co made! That's the reason we're in the position we are today!

[stainrodisalegend]

Some are panicking too much and it must be very hard to get "top, top players" to sign for little old qpr - but there does seem to be a sleepiness about our dealings. Redknapp is quoted today saying he wants fer "but i dont know where we are with that". Why doesnt he know? Sure no one is going to leave harry to draw up the contracts and maybe he is being discreet but if he really wants fer shouldnt he be on to beard everyday asking "so what progress have you made? If its stalled plse move on to plan b." similarly the quote from overmars about the ajax bloke: "we are having some good conversations with qpr". But pretty authoratitive reports out of holland had us agreeing a fee weeks ago but that it was stumbling on personal terms. Maybe the club is being clever and playing one club off against another to get the best deals but we need two midfielders in by the hull game or we are in trouble.

[maidstone_hoop]

To be honest we are in a weird postion and can see why some fans are frustrated and some are more calm. Its obvious we are being more prudent with business and taking our time to do things correctly which I think is great for our longevity. At the same time while we are taking our time to do the right business it would be a lie to say this is ideal. We are short on number and quality and our manager is trying to change our formation. With two weeks until the big kick off we are behind schedule and I can see a rocky few weeks why things fall into place.
We just got to believe the board will get things right bring the right players in and eventually it will fall into place the team will gel and we will be ok.

We've spent more than 10% on Caulker alone

Well we already spent 8 mill so thats more than 10 % of your quoted figures

[Midgeyboy]

I think part of the problem with signings is that as a club we have lost our identity.
Any prospectful signing will look at us and wonder "what style of football will they play" and I think the only answer is...Nobody knows...
Harry is renowned for playing with attacking flair, yet in his season and a half with us we`ve seen nothing of the sort, boring and defencive spring to mind.
We are quickly becoming a bit of a "steer clear" club.
The ammount of players we have been linked with in this transfer window and have only signed 2 (Rio = Great signing but retireing at end of season & Caulker = another great signing but will it be another Remy, Bosingwa, Park, Granero, Mbia scenario should we go down?)
There is nothing any of us can do worrying about this issue but it is frustrating to say the very least.
The people saying "give it another week" have been saying that for about a month now.
There are great, cheap players out there who we should be looking at but instead it really is "the same old same old".

Who says we cant? You? We will, its just taking a bit longer cos the board dont want to be total fools and be laughed at again by the football world like they were last time.
