A lot of talk up there that they will sack RVN after 30th June so they can shift it to the new financial season. |  |

It isn't, I spent ages trying to find out if it was while waiting for an Air Asia flight in March. Looks like it got re-painted | |

This is what the QPR plane looks like these days, flying in and out of Kuala Lumpur. QPR replaced with Baby Shark, typical.

A while ago there was a thread for tenuous claims to fame.
Now i have one but this is possibly as tenuous as it gets.
I went to see my physio (i have a herniated disc in my lower back) and i was wearing a QPR tracksuit top and she informed that her dad had put the livery on the QPR plane and showed me a picture (of the plane, not her dad). | |

Could we, perhaps, be doing the same thing? | | | |

I have heard from multiple people this is what we are doing. The French chap has been done. He has signed the contract. All to be confirmed post 30 June. | | | |

I'm pretty sure we saw a QPR Air Asia plane at Bangkok airport last summer.
Although now that Tony is out the club I expect it'll get a respray. |  |

The problem seems to be with compensation for ditching Cifuentes. Stephan, assuming it's him, doesn't have a contract that needs paying off. |  |

I would love to know from the club (or, preferably, and I'm sure more quickly, an accounts-savvy fan) what cumulative figure of compensation the club has saddled itself with from our dealings with our last three managerial appointments (and how much we still owe):
Neil Critchley, appointed 3/12/2022, 3.5 year contract, sacked 19/2/23
Wild Thing, appointed 21/2/23, 3.5 year contract, sacked 28/10/23
Marti Cifuentes, appointed 30/10/23, contract length undisclosed*, 'multi-year' contract renewal 30/9/24, put on GL (and presumably now to be officially sacked) 29/4/25
*as far as I know
I imagine these things are subject to negotiation, but I presume we're talking a substantial seven figure sum. And this for a club that was apparently so strapped for cash it made its own supporters pay for the lettering to name a stand after one of its most mythologised players.
With people like you know Hoos still sticking around the place like persisting wind, plus the other fat/lazy/stupid resident muppets spoiling the broth, it's a shame Sints isn't presiding over a tragicomic 'Forever Arse(s)' ceremony where we can hand out awards for Pulling the Fans' Pants Down With Impunity, Getting it Wrong and Getting it Wronger, and Making It Up As We Go Along etc.

I know you are a self proclaimed wordsmith, but is "mythologised" really the right word for Stanley Bowles?
There wasn't much need to make up stories about Stan, the truth was usually far more entertaining.
You could have just used legend, but I guess it wasn't clever enough |  | | |

Talk about pedantry - you could have responded to the multiple questions I raise in my post, but instead prefer to engage in nit-picking around a single word. Which says a lot more about you than my (lack of) claims for my wordsmithery. You're mainly just advertising yourdself as someone who resents debate with the 'wrong' people, and plays the man rather than the ball at any opportunity. Do you never bore yourself?
PS WIth Stan, for the record, the truth was and was not stranger than fiction - satisfied? [Post edited 19 Jun 21:31]

Your first line tells me a lot. Why not go out and try and learn a few things to do in life with a bit of passion and dedication?

Mate this has given me literal shivers as I read your reference as Russell Grant, and I once introduced a school at my place as the School of Physics and Astrology... this was of course wrong, and I had a leading academic heckle me to the tune of "who the erfk are you, mystic cnting Meg?" |  | | |

Those contract lengths for Critchley and Ainsworth were just plain stupidity.
Neither of them were ever going to be lasting more than 1 - 2 seasons in charge. | | | |

Problems is, managers aren’t going to accept a 1 year deal. If a club wants them, they hold the cards ((c) D Trump). |  | | |

Getting the “right” manager in, is the single most important decision any club can make.
Just look at Man Utd’s trajectory compared to Liverpool over the last 5 years or so.
I hope to God this latest gamble, with no previous experience in England, has been fully vetted by Nourry and his analytics algorithms. We cannot afford another expensive dud as a manager. | | | |
