      Having just skipped through the article its a "must read" for all R's fans and I urge you to get a copy if we're unable to get a link.Lots of information and coloured pics and going into great detail about the owners wealth compared to the likes of Chelsea and the two Manchester clubs. A really great,eye-opening article which could prove quite contraversial and have repercussions.

        Why, after being taken over by three super-rich entrepreneurs and finally making it into the Premier League, are the Hoops still living on the breadline?

            Its from their magazine by the looks of it so will have been written a little whilst ago..now that the mail is now our favourite rag I'd expect "nicer" stories. Good read though despite 3/4s of the info being out of date now!!

              But football fans love to moan and QPR do it better than most.

                The best line from that article is referring to Bernie as "the bonsai businessman"

                  Really good article. I didn't know that they had to gaffer tape over Gulf Air on the third shirts - embarrassing, and I didn't know that Flav had shagged Heidi Klum.

                  Some interesting comments from Neil - bearing in mind he's already had a bit of a public dressing down I wonder if there will be any repercussions.

                    Hate the mail. Luckily I get it free at the gym. Can't wait to read the article.

                      The perks of being minted.I am sure Naomi Campbell fooked him because of his personality.

                        COuldnt help but laugh at the line:

                        "Both men [T&C] wear tinted glasses all the time. And nobody laughs at them. Thats rich"

                        You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

                          Warnock hasn't been muted by the T&C statement has he?

                          Also, Scott's claim that the Mail is the new mouthpiece for the club doesn't seem to hold water. That would be a very odd article for the owners to have cleared.....

                          Edit: Sorry Scott, didn't see your post above. *blind-as-a-bat-emoticon* Will be interesting to see if how the club react to that story.

                            Its been written by the journo who's been with them over the pre-season.

                            The stand out quotes for me are:

                            "Ecclestone and Briatore now inhabit the world of the haves and the have-yachts.

                            Ecclestone doesn’t just own a private jet, he owns Biggin Hill airport. He has been known to carry around £100,000 in cash, in a carrier bag, which he once forgot at a meeting in Geneva.
                            "

                            And when Neil is asked why Briatore doesnt keep him in the picture he replies:

                            "I go through Gio (Paladini) really, but he speaks to Flavio about 300 times a day in Italian. God knows what they’re talking about."

                              The quotes were taken prior to the club statement.
