    QPR Debate

    Anyone else seen this?....quite interesting i thought. Martin Samuel (Daily Mail) debates QPR with readers.

    MARTIN SAMUEL - THE DEBATE: Fans have been brainwashed into thinking QPR are wrong to gamble - but the game's about chasing glory, not a beautiful balance sheet
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2274908/MARTIN-SAMUEL--THE-DEBATE--Brainwashed-fans-slam-QPR-gambling--games-chasing-glory-beautiful-balance-sheet.html#axzz2KDns7Mu4
    A shorter than usual debate this week but still a lively one. Apparently, QPR just don’t get your juices flowing like, say, Luis Suarez or putting the boot in on the ball-boy. But here we go. Enjoy...

      Although he comes accross like he is defending us it is just his love in with Harry coming out there.

          Well its not so much him defending us that i thought was good, but as he says what do the rest of the league expect us to do? Lie down and except relegation with 4/5 months to go? It really irritates me how all the fans in the whole country know our finances inside out and cofidently predict doom & disaster on us, and where do they get this info?....Press & media

              Yes, but from the outside our dealings are risky. We are spending more than a club of our size would normally, so it raises eyebrows and we are clearly being bank-rolled.

              I don't have a problem with the article - it is fine, I don't particularly like Samuel and he has been in love with Harry forever. If our manager was not HR he would not have written that article IMHO. In fact I suspect he would have written the exact opposite.

                  Don't forget about the TV money. For most clubs this is significantly more than gate receipts, so the difference between us and clubs who pull gates in the 20s (e.g. Swansea) isn't really that much.

                      Yeah it does look risky but Man City have done exactly the same on a far larger scale and none of this has surrounded them thats all.
                      I'm sure this journo was slagging us off earlier in the season maybe pre HR so yeah could be a love in, but nice to see a different angle other than QPR ....RIP
