Thread | Julien Stephan —New Gaffer
at 15:59 22 Jun 2025
Julien Stephan has been widely reported as the "odds-on favorite" to take over, and Johannes Hoff Thorup and Pierre Sage have also been linked to the role. However, there has been no official announcement from QPR about a new manager agreeing to take the position.
The strongest source for the rumor about Julien Stephan becoming QPR's new manager is Sky Sports' Rob Dorsett. He reported on Twitter (which was then picked up by various sports news sites like Football FanCast and Football League World) that Stephan had agreed to become the new QPR manager and would be signing a contract shortly.
Other sources, such as French journalist Marc Mechenoua (reported by Football League World and Get French Football News) and West London Sport, have also stated that an agreement in principle or a two-year deal has been reached.
Additionally, betting sites have consistently listed Julien Stephan as the "odds-on favorite" to take the job, further solidifying the speculation.

Sir Les. It was the beginning of the end of us as a top flight club. And the crap we got as a replacement was the start of and decade of us bringing in crappy over-the-hill mercenaries looking for a last pay check and getting worse and worse with every sh*t signing.
Other really painful ones were the offseason when we sold Allen and Goddard. They were two wonderful players and both were QPR through and through
Who can forget the bitterness when Charlie Austin went to Southampton for a pint of lager and a bag of crips and then sat on their bench and watched his career collapse? [Post edited 19 Apr 13:30]

Thread | Off-season Business
at 13:25 19 Apr 2025
With this season winding down and is mathematically safe and also mathematically incapable of reaching the Play Offs, the mind naturally wanders to what are the absolute musts this off-season. I'll start:
1. Sign Marti up for the rest of the decade
2. Sign Jimmy Dunne up for the rest of the century
3. Sign Ronnie Edwards on a permanent deal
4. Sign two of the following three (minimum) on permanent deal: Yang, Dembele, and Saito
5 Bring Charlie Kelman back from Leiyton Orient to challenge Frey up front, get rid of Celar
What else?

Some people have a hard time remembering that we are a mid-table Championship table. We cannot afford the type of player that is the real deal all round. Paal has some great qualities. He is one of our primary corner and free kick takers and some of them have been fantastic. He has good control and can run with the ball and put in crosses, which is what you need of a wing back. But he isn't fast. So sometimes he is going to be done by a speedy winger. If we were Barcalona we could afford a player with all of the qualities, but we arent. We are QPR. Get over it |

Very uninspired and uninteresting first half. Neither team tested the opposition goalie. We at least had a shot on target, which they didn't, but it was a pretty tame one. They aren't good and we are taking advantage of that yet.
I think Saito looks dangerous when he gets the ball, but he hasn't had much of it. Smyth has been pretty quiet. Chair also hasnt contributed much. Lets hope Marty has some thoughts on how to get the offense goig in the 2nd half |

Great first half to watch. Lots of action. We have been lively but they had the better chance only to be denied by an absolutely unbelievable double-save from the Frenchman. Going into the dressing rooms the teams are evenly balanced and it definitely could go either way in the second half |

What a dumb idea:
1. We couldn't afford him. At this point we couldn't even afford to pay him what he was on when he left us, let alone what he's been getting ever since.
2. He is 35. Why would we want a player on their way out, when we are building from the youth up?
Adel was magic and gave us some fantastic memories. I'd love to see him inducted into the Forever Rs Club and for the fans to serenade him one more time, but as a player? No way! |

Devastating to him? Or motivating to him?
It seems like it was motivating, judging by the result. |

really slow and meaningless stuff so far. We haven't forced a decent save out of their goalie yet. We look clueless. [Post edited 2 Nov 2024 16:47]

its pretty tedious and depressing watching Celar play, to be honest.
I think you may have forgotten what it is like to watch a competent striker play, to be honest. He has looked dire, except for that shot, which was sharp but wide.
He was late to a really decisive ball in to the back post in the first 10 minutes, he missed from 3 yards out a few minutes later, nothing about his performance until that shot suggested he could possibly score |

I wouldn't get too carried away. We have been passing around well but our two best chances came from defenders and one was a header (Cook) straight at the goalie and the other was a glancing header (Dunne) well past the far post. Smyth and Chair are my two favorite players most weeks but Smyth looks so weak and Chair looks so ponderous. Celar is a complete non-factor. Some of the new boys have been linking up well; especially Varane, Ashby, and Morgan. That's definitely a good sign. But we continue to have no point to our spear, so while the spear's shaft is strong, it aint killing any woolly mammoths any time soon!! |
