Yes, and that was the problem. I really liked Warburton but it was becoming increasingly harder to defend that horrific run when we went from genuine play off contenders to looking over our shoulders as usual!) |  |

You talking about Marti or Julien ? |  | |  |

Marti to Leicester…maybe on 21:33 - Jul 9 by stainrods_elbow | As Morrissey put it, everyone's offended by something/someone these days. What I find amusing here is that those who accuse me of causing offence are frequently those who clearly believe they never do. Which is offensive in itself, if you think about it. |
Hmm I dunno mate, I think it's called self-awareness. You should give it a go! |  |

Marti to Leicester…maybe on 08:26 - Jul 10 by dmm | All that you say is true, nix. However, Nourry doesn't only keep players contracts secret. The whole Ben Williams thing last year, for example, was kept in the shadows. I've spent time in organisations that were led by control freaks. Keeping a tight hand on communication is a key element to the way they operate. Nourry will do some good things at QPR but I worry about what lies in wait for us further down the road. Lack of transparency is always a sign that things could well be very wrong on the inside. |
I can understand the wariness, I really can. We're protective of our club and quite rightly. I just think some of what goes on here is way over the top so we can no longer be pleased about anything that goes well in the club so anxious people are to paint it in a negative light in case it's seen to be a win for Nourry. I get what you say about control freaks but arguably men of the people like Chris Wright (selling our training ground to pay for his divorce!) and Tony Fernandes (Sandro, Redknapp, Cesar etc.) can equally be disasters in football. It would be nice to read a thread that didn't descend into slagging him off for every transfer, club announcement etc. Also I'm not even sure Ben Williams was that much of a secret: we knew he was working remotely and also had another role. It was a big mistake though, definitely agree with that. I'm happy to be cautious and keep an eye on things but also some balance! |  | |  |

Thanks nix. At my age, cynicism can be hard to keep at bay and alarm bells at Nourry and his approach do chime in my head. That said, no one would be more pleased than I to see Nourry and his work succeed, particularly with the academy. Help keep me hopeful. |  | |  |

I still Warburton massively underachieved in his 1st season with us. Eze, Bright, Wells, Hugill. He just wasn't very good at coaching to defend, but the football was exciting, but nuts. Marti, probably over achieved, but Christ was the football a hard hard watch. I feel for the Leicester fans. I'd take Warburtons brand any day. |  |

That's true Dave but that nine placement and the following season we literally went for broke and stuffed ourselves for the subsequent two seasons largely on Austin and Johansen so no long term benefit? We also spent £7 million on transfer fees. I obviously don't know whether Warbs wanted any of those players but he certainly had a big budget in QPR terms for his 9th place and 11th place. |  | |  |

Say what you want Elbow, and I know you will, but 21 people on here have taken the time to agree with Clive's passing observation that: '...you talk to the people on this forum like you scraped them off the bottom of your shoe.' No doubt you'll feed this info into whatever equation you're putting together for that peer reviewed article you've been desperate for us all to know about - but 21 people - that is damning. Someone who was truly self aware would at least consider taking a look at themselves and perhaps try to be, let's say, 50% less exhausting - for the next few weeks anyway. Got to start somewhere. |  | |  |
