Leicester Mercury reporting that it's done but they are waiting on a visa. Hoping to announce it before they go on tour to Austria on Wednesday. |  | |  |

How are we going to be, if Leicester run away from the pack this season.
Its not going to be great to see and what ifs will arise ????
I guess we were never going to keep Cifuentes this season, so ultimately its irrelevant now anyhow |  |

I think that depends on how Stephan does here this coming season. After the weekend some have already written him off as a French Ainsworth but if we have a decent season then it will not be something we focus on. For me it is a great shame what happened with Marti because I felt he would push us upwards the longer he stayed but it wasn't to be. Leicester may have come in for him anyway, even under the best of circumstances so we just have to hope that Stephan can hit the ground running. The players seem to really like him. Let's see how that translates to actual games. As for Marti, good luck to him. If he does well for the foxes, we'll know what he could do with more assets. |  |

Hope we stuff Leicester when they rock up at LR. Hope he fails miserably. Judas, irrespective of “saving” us from relegation. |  | | |

I'm not sure people are taking into account the difficulties between him and Nourry. Beale angled for an exit by prostituting himself out almost from day one. Marti obviously had a major fallout with Nourry and Nourry won. He said, very publicly, if I'm wanted here, I will stay. Nourry didn't want him. And that was well before WBA or anyone else came looking.
So the whole Marti/Beale snake thing. Not buying that. | |

Ridiculous comment
The guy did well for us, hence why he has an opportunity at a club a little higher up the food chain.
Just the nature of life. You do well. You go somewhere better.
And football, no matter what we think, is a business. A mad and unhinged business but a business all the same.
The guy, as you say, saved us from oblivion, so will always be grateful and good luck to him
Hopefully JS is a step up for ourselves also and we can progress further up the food chain ourselves.
Life goes on, in the meantime. He is our past, but find sudden hatred for a man who did well for us, find it weird. | |

We need to move on from Marti.
Marti was popular, did well in some games, but was terrible in some too. We had promotion runs but also relegation runs. Overall he did alright vis a vis the fans support.
Julien it seems needs our concerted support, and it is not funny
As for Mari, history (empirical behaviour evidence) will be off to another club in 12-18 months time, if not sacked. |  |

Most managers move on every 18 months to 2 years. Marti is no different to this.
Not sure why its picked up on, that he moves on quickly. Its the same as everyone else tbf !!! | |

Good luck to him - he’s gone and we have to move on.
On reflection, I think the move demonstrates that somebody else clearly thought he was doing a good enough job that they would benefit from his experience and leadership.
That’s a club that previously won the Prem and were playing there last year. Same team that thrashed us in the (ahem) Cup. Yes, they have some challenges and possibly some point deductions coming (long overdue), but on Marti’s CV, this will no doubt show progress for him and when he inevitably moves again, he will have more options if he’s done a good job for the Crisps.
Meanwhile, our CEO and chairman’s view was that he was expendable and that we should put him on gardening leave and find another coach that would do what he was told. That was their perogative and a decision that will be scrutinised over and over again this season if we don’t start well.
Time will tell if these were good decisions or not - for all concerned. There were a lot of red flags at the weekend with the performance, player availability and attitude on the pitch.
I hope we can recover quickly from that this week and hope Dunne’s captaincy is a big step towards galvanising the team in the pitch. I hope that helps Julien off the pitch and the collection of new coaches can get the squad and team ticking as a unit, just as we saw with the cricket team at Lords yesterday.
Bloody hope - I know it’s not a strategy but it feels like it’s the only available option at times. |  |

Just another day at QPR. We finally get something nice/a decent manager and ruin it for ourselves. Best of luck to Marti. It's obviously been an issue with Nourry who wasn't mature enough to recognise a good thing and I think it's clear Marti will be managing in the Prem one way or another soon whilst we continue to languish in the football duldrums. I love this club but they make it really hard to be optimistic | | | |

I'm on the fence with Noury.
On the one hand, he's made some really good decisions, and I think he's potentially put us in a really good position to kick on as a club, and hopefully put things in place that we'll benefit from over the next few years. I think he's also made some poor decisions when it comes to us fans and communication, and when he does communicate, how he communicates is a bit of an issue. The Ben Williams thing was definitely a mistake. I'm not as close to the inner workings of the club as some others, so I may not fully appreciate or recognise the impact of some of his decisions on the club - fair enough.
I do think however, that its a real shame to bring Noury's age into it - immature, boy prince or whatever - we wanted a different model, to be more modern in our approach, less reliant on former players, managers and dinosaurs of the game to pitch up and do what they have always done... we've got it now, and yes it isn't perfect, but the running of the club looks to be a darn sight better than it has been for years, and the future looks promising, and this was all overseen by a 26 year old. We've had older, more experienced heads in Noury's position and they hade made some horrendous mistakes - real whoppers that have set this club back years, but their age wasn't a factor, so Noury's shouldn't be either.
We're yet to see if this approach will pay us off this season, and we'll not know the real story behind the Marti situation until it's its on Under The Cosh or whatever, but judge him for what he has or hasn't done, not his age, its lazy really. |  | | |

I would say it’s more his lack of experience than his age but you can easily connect the two.
Lack of experience as a CEO (offset in part by Hoos) and lack of experience as DoF in particular, is a fairly big issue.
I think the former was highlighted with the gardening leave and the latter with some of the recruitment and the insistence on a system that doesn’t suit the players we recruited. | |

his lack of experienced is an issue, same was said of Ferdinand but his age is what gets talked about a lot more than it did with Les |  | | |

I'm very interested to see how Cifuentes gets on at Leicester.
I still don't think the expansive way he wants to play is the right system for the Championship. But maybe with a better squad of players it will work? Let's see. |  |

That's obviously because the two are inextricably linked. It's difficult for someone so young to have acquired the relevant experience. That's why CEOs don't tend to be 26 years old. Indeed, the average age of those appointed CEO in the UK is around 55. Add the the fact that Christian is both CEO and DoF into the mix, and it becomes easy to see why some folk are dubious.
Les was an entirely different matter. Firstly, he was DoF, not CEO. He performed this role between the ages of 48 and 56, a range more consistent with the average senior director. His lack of experience stemmed from never having worked in a similar role before. |  | | |

Nah.
Despite what an "utter mess" Leicester are in they will have to go a long way to avoid getting promoted even accidentally with the advantage parachute payments will bring.
They and Marti will dover well this season.
It's all about the cash these days... |  |

I agree - he is same as everyone else, precisely the point
If he is more successful at QPR, he would have better offers, PL teams would be circling around Loftus Road
Not sure why we are still fixated on him when we have a new coach in the house | |
