Mittals gone?

[LoftusRd]

Just on a point of order here - did you know that MYU's family originate from the sub-continent? Along with Pete he works harder than anyone to keep this site running. Do you really think it is fair on him to be forced to listen to your racist, ignorant drivel? Maybe this kind of language is considered OK down at a BNP meeting but if it continues to appear on here then I will no longer be visiting.

Far from BNP and Racist mate have plenty of mates from Asia, I went to old oak in East Acton then Chiswick High. There are no BNP or racist coming from there trust me, my best mate is an Indian/South african and has same type of view although he supports Liverpool.

Stainrod, isn't your assumption about how rich people think just as generalised as the other statements here? Isn't there a bloke at Chel**** who spends and spends and spends his wealth on his team? And for what financial reward would you suggest he has gotten?

Where is the racism? I am simply comparing how they both deceive people in general and if they would buy shi_ or quality

Just don't think you need to bring nationalities into it. Quite happy to accept you are not generally a racist and don't want to start an argument but as soon as you start making statements like "Indians do x and Americans do y", then honestly...

Bernie is a former second hand car salesman for goodness sake - by all accounts as tight as a badger's proverbials but I don't see anyone on here saying "typical Englishman, so tight."

Re Ozzie's point and rich people: one thing rich peole have in common (those who have made their money rather than lucked into it) is that they are very, very sharp. I am not rich myself (sadly) but have met a lot of people who are and I've yet to meet a stupid one. All I'm saying - and I thought it was quite an obvious point - is that all the boardroom players will negotiate hard, they aren't just going to get all emotional and say "awe, I love little ol' QPR so much I'm going to give you twice the price that I could get another comparable club for".

just to let everyone know, I have no black or asian friends. . .come to think of it, I don't have any friends

You think he does it for the love?? No, he knows he has a lost here and there, but makes it back when the scu_ win the league or euro, but at least he has Bolloc** to spend. Would defo rather someone like that here than a gold digger looking for the cheap IMO

I agree mate using indians x and ####s y, but was kinda false into it by silly replies was trying to get a point if (a) pays more than (b) then (a) would prevail.

At the end of the day I want the right peeps in control of our much loved club who will bring big names for hefty ST increases which I don't mind paying if the quality of football matches.

Loftus, every fan of every club in the entire world wants an Abramovich owning their club. Sadly, there is only one of them. Do you really think Abramovich has "made it back" winning the league: you have to be joking. He has lost hundreds of millions of pounds in Chelsea (unless you buy the argument that its all some kind of money laundering operation, but that's a different subject for a different day). If you don't believe me, call up their accounts. Of course we would all like some multi-billionare idiot who is prepared to fritter hundreds of millions of pounds on OUR hobby, QPR. But to misquote Mrs Beaton, first find your multi-billionare idiot...

OK, no hard feelings, in that case peace and love...

Just a final point for the hard of hearing & hard of intelligence:

Neither Mittal nor Ecclestone are fans of QPR.

Mittal bought into QPR as a cheap investment as a nice place to entertain clients & friends and a vehicle to further sport in his native India, as seen by the increasing presence we have over there now.

Mittal would've happily gone along as when he first came in if our reputation hadn't hit rock bottom. The attempts to buy out Flav are aimed at cleaning up the corporate image of his investment, not to drive the club he loves forward.

Even if you are worth £50bn, does NOT mean you have £50bn in paper money. Even to Mittal, £100m is not loose change, especially when the shares were bought for c.£20m a few years back.

Spot on (to this fan hard of intelligence and hearing)

[Loneranger80]

what is the latest with regrds to the talks ongoing in the boardroom.... does anyone have any updates?

[Sprocket]

Sorry to disagree but mitall is seriously wealthy whatever way you dice it up. Even if he took full control I cannot see him splashing big money. Not the Indian way to be flash with your money. No chance we will do a man city.
