The QPR summer managers rumours thread on 13:02 - May 31 by Wilkinswatercarrier | Not necessarily. U can still bring someone in. Also, if Cifuentes has breached the terms of his contract, then QPR could go legal, so no payout, and the board would have done this with legal advice, not Nourry on his own. We'll have our targets, so I'm not panicking. It's all a bit of a mess, but there is certainly a pattern emerging. I think this is being done to put a marker in the ground and state publicly that QPR won't be taken advantage of anymore. Kollis alleged contract situation 9 months, don't sign don't play. Cifuentes alleged contact with WBA, you're finished here. Not pushing for a 1st team place by 21 years old, you're out. Personally, I'm sick of people taking the pish out of us, so I much prefer this style than having our tummy tickled. |
Want to work for the Brooklyn Nets and live in Dubai? OUT. |  | |  |

The QPR summer managers rumours thread on 13:16 - May 31 by mart_Goblin | You are aware that clubs would still have to pay compensation right now , knowing that sooner rather than later QPR will have to pay him off and he become a free agent? Why would anyone do that especially at mid championship level . |
Apparently Schalke paid a million release for the guy at Plymouth and Norwich paid a release for Manning. So they can get a manager in and sorted as a transfer window starts and properly plan off season…. i know, what is this wizardry?! I like Marti and wish he’d stayed as we won’t find anyone much better but I do think we may have over estimated his appeal to others. [Post edited 31 May 13:47]

Firstly this is club decision not just Nourry. Secondly, I think the club made decision when they did because they didn’t want to have the whole summer of uncertainty about whether he was staying or not. Last summer being an example. |  | |  |

The QPR summer managers rumours thread on 12:25 - May 31 by Pindarus | If Cifuentes really is the bees knees and so much better than most of the candidates being discussed, how come he hasn't been snapped up by another club? Perhaps he's not quite as wonderful as some people seem to think. |
You can argue for or against the fact that he's better than other candidates being discussed What's absolutely not arguable is that there's no way he's coming back and the way this situation has been handled will have put off some potentially good replacements. Amateur hour |  | |  |

Can’t the club get round that semantically by employing someone and just giving them a new title, ‘chief assistant of turf operations’ or some such. |  | |  |

It’s a bit of a myth that seems to have sprung up out of nowhere. As with any employment contract it *could* be a theoretical issue if Cifuentes pursued it but he’s going to happily keep taking his paycheque whilst waiting for a new club to snap him up. |  | |  |

Same reason the eminently better Röhl hasn’t been snapped up either - there’s a lot of competition for not many jobs, not just from out of work managers here but also European managers wanting to get on the gravy train. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The players are all on holiday. Certainty in May and June isn’t that important. For the players and next season, we need to have someone in place for start of pre-season. What we don’t want is to have a manager at start of pre-season who may be gone by start of the league. |  | |  |

Plenty of aspiring young European managers have come to the Championship and fallen flat on their face. Rohl and Cifuentes have proven they can do a job in the Championship and they have both done it in fairly chaotic circumstances. Maybe the big obstacle to them moving on is that the buyout clauses in their contracts are just a bit too steep for any Championship club that doesn't have the benefit of parachute payments.

I thought that the DoF arrangement was supposed to offer that continuity so that the head coach leaving wasn't a massive issue, are you saying our DoF isn't up to it or are you worried about our CEO's ability for continuity planning? |  | |  |

So, if a L1 club can do it then we should be able to as well. This is the question that should be asked at the fans forum. Can we have monthly updates like this from the club as L1 club can do it? |  |

I’m trying to think of reasons why the club did what they did. But as for your question, it’s pretty obvious that having a coach leaving mid-way through your pre-season is pretty disruptive. Much more so than at end of season. |  | |  |

Have another read and let me know where I said it was Nourry’s not the clubs decision . But, now you mention it, it is the same thing . The decision was taken months ago, hence the haste he was thrown on gardening leave for not doing anything different to any other manager OR CLUB in football. I think it’s called throwing the baby out with the bath water . I’m over Marti. He was only passing through, same as everyone else except us . Moved on ….Shame the club hasn’t. |  | |  |

So you know the reasons he was put on gardening leave? Think the fact he was leaking information like a sieve might have been a factor. |  | |  |

I never said it was perfect, but I'm sick of managers/players treating this club like shyte. Look at the Joel Lynch link, disgraceful and if Nourry can do something different then I'm all in. We have been going from crisis to joke and back again numerous times over the past 30 years and it needs to change. I want PL football and I want to watch exciting football. Marti kept us up, but Christ the football was garbage for all of last season. U can count the number of good performances on one hand, it had to change and MC gave them the excuse. |  | |  |

It’s amazing. Based on what many were saying on here, there was no chance of Marti staying. And most of same people are saying he was looking for other jobs and that’s fine. If he was still our manager, knowing all that, how on earth could we be in a better position today? We’d be going into a big pre-season with a manager who in all likelihood would be gone before the season kicks off. |  | |  |

The QPR summer managers rumours thread on 20:45 - May 31 with 1103 views | HammersmithR | Well this is what AI says about Onur Cinel… Onur Cinel is recognised for his dynamic, high-intensity football philosophy, shaped by his extensive experience in youth development and his tenure within the Red Bull football network. His approach is characterised by proactive pressing, swift transitions, and a commitment to attacking play.  Coaching Background and Influences Cinel’s coaching journey began in the youth systems of Rot-Weiss Essen and Schalke 04, where he spent over a decade honing his skills. At Schalke, he notably led the U17 team to consecutive West German championships and secured the 2021/22 B Juniors Bundesliga title, achieving an impressive points average of 2.66 per match . His development was further enriched by internships at esteemed clubs such as Chelsea, Ajax, and Manchester City under Pep Guardiola, providing him with a diverse tactical perspective .  Tactical Philosophy Cinel’s teams are known for their: • High Pressing: Implementing an intense pressing game across various thirds of the field to regain possession swiftly and disrupt opponents’ build-up play .  • Quick Transitions: Emphasising rapid shifts from defence to attack, aiming to capitalise on unsettled defences. • Attacking Play: Fostering a proactive and dynamic style that seeks to control the game through aggressive offensive strategies. During his initial training sessions at Red Bull Salzburg, Cinel focused on fast ball relays, counter-pressing, and goal-scoring exercises, underscoring his commitment to an energetic and forward-thinking approach .  Expectations at QPR Should Onur Cinel take the managerial role at Queens Park Rangers, fans can anticipate a transformation towards a more aggressive and entertaining style of play. His emphasis on youth development aligns with QPR’s tradition of nurturing young talent, potentially leading to increased opportunities for academy players. The implementation of his high-pressing and attacking philosophy may require an adaptation period, but it promises a revitalised and ambitious team ethos. In summary, Cinel’s appointment would likely herald a new era for QPR, characterised by energetic performances, tactical innovation, and a renewed focus on developing young talent. |  | |  |

He was always leaving this summer which makes the attempt to win the PR battle by putting him on gardening leave even more stupid. Just pay him the modest settlement and move on with your lives…sure he may have hurt some ego’s but be the grown ups in the room. Instead they’re offering to let him join another club compensation free to try and dig themselves out of a whole they created for themselves whilst he’s chilling in the background still being paid and going to be an awkward black cloud for as long as it takes to find a resolution. |  | |  |
