    I guess when you look at it like that, it arguably hasn't been any more enjoyable than the "buckets" era.

    Of course, but times and situations change. When we as a club were collecting money in buckets simply to survive, there really wasn't much expectation past keeping the club as a going concern. Simply making up the numbers in the football league back then was almost the equivalent of playing in the PL now in many respects - we felt lucky to be there. But the mega investment (by QPR standards) in recent seasons has justifably raised the expectations of the fans. Spending over £100million on players shouldn't result in a yo-yo club between the PL and Championship, whilst simultaneously putting the club hundreds of millions of pounds in debt. I for one don't consider that a success.

    I think if we knew then what we know now, the later. Football in the lower divisions is less expensive, more enjoyable and probably would've resulted in us being a more stable club in the long term.

    Dont mind Yoyoing tbh but have a feeling that if we get relegated this season our YoYo maybe going the other way.

    I too think this and it would be nothing more than we deserve... Been woeful now for 4 seasons with massive influxes of players on astronomical wages.

    When we go down, dont expect to see any quick fixes like last time. Expect to see young players from league 1 etc.

    [QUOTE=Kevin Mcleod;1399733]Cant see what 'points' you made for me to adress if im honest. Read the post a few times and cannot see any for the life of me.

    See the bit where I mention the club failing under Fernandes since 2011, and your continued lack of ability to acknowledge this failure? That was the point. I was hoping the you would provide some evidence to counteract this argument, potentially to validate your loyalty to Fernandes other than the fact that he is simply throwing money at the football club.

    For what its worth, I can't see what point you're making either, other than the fact that anyone who criticises Fernandes is wrong because it isn't in line with your opinion.
