This says that JFH agrees to join. Let wait something more official, but i think he's ours

If I was being especially critical, I would've prefered a candidate with slightly more managerial experience. With that said, there is no doubting his credentials up to this point. Whether he was left a good squad or not, a club the size and budget of Burton should not be winning League One ahead of the likes of Coventry, Wigan, Millwall, Bradford etc. So he's done a remarkable job so far. His combination of relative youth and footballing experience is a massive bonus to boot.

Let's not kid ourselves though, the job at QPR is vastly different from the one at Burton. It's one thing getting lower league players (frankly with smaller egos) to perform...it's quite another to get the likes of Fer and Sandro to pull their weight in this division. If he can inspire this squad (whcih I still maintain is amongst the 2 or 3 most talented in the division) to perform, he will be a runaway success without doubt.

I am excited by this appointment if it is made, and will back him 100%. You can certainly see why Ferdinand has gone down this route, and the potential pros far outweigh the cons in my book.

My thoughts as well.. An exciting appointment if we can get it over the line.

Some really good positive posts on this thread. About time we were given something to get exited about and definitely about time we actually appointed a manager that is a good fit for what we are now and what we hope to become.

Not at all bothered by lack of championship experience. Really don't understand why so many think it's such a different league to any other. Nothing exceptional in the division from what I've seen. And as for supposed PL players with big egos being harder to manage than League One youngsters, let's just see. My feeling is that they are just as easy to drop or sell if they aren't performing to the required standard as any other player. Just need a manager with the guts, footballing pedigree and integrity to do the job properly for a change.

Could be the 1st ever successful black manager in history which will be a big incentive for him

Very true, and one black manager has got to make the top grade, so hopefully it's our manager. I'm quietly confident.

Can't disagree with any of that, great post

It's exciting Ginge! There seems to be a potential in JFH which cannot go unnoticed! QPR is a massive challenge for any manager not just an inexperienced one, what with the Topsy tervy past few years. Maybe this is what we need - It was certainly what we were crying out for before Ramsey got given the job pre-maturely IMO!

If JFH doesn't work then I'm not sure who we turn to, as we've probably then had every type of manager you can think of in the space of 5 years!

Mate if he doesn't work I think it only proves that we are cursed! Every good prospect or player that comes here turns to sh@t
If this does work out well for us, we could finally be looking at getting that stability we have craved and needed for so long.

Guardian now says its seems to be a done deal.

I am very underwhelmed. To say the least....... Sigh.

Very excited by this appointment. Cant say I felt the same in recent times

[Maidohoops]

If Lee Hoos says he is good enough then that is enough for me. The guy has proved he has a great eye for a manager. 100% behind this and excited for the future.

Thought that was impossible:

I agree, don't seem to make good managers. A bit like white men trying to run 100m just doesn't work!
