| Lee Hoos? 21:39 - Mar 18 with 5987 views | HammersmithR | Anyone else heard he’s off in the summer? Apparently he’s going back to the States to prepare the country for the World Cup. I can’t get my head round how Reuben and Amit are happy to keep Lee and Les in their jobs whilst spunging 2 million every month to run the club! It’s insane. We were discussing today what qualifications Ferdinand had to get the role of Director of Football. He must be taking home 500k a year. |  | | |  |

| Lee Hoos? on 22:37 - Mar 18 by stainrods_elbow | Can Clive commission the production of some blue and white bunting if there's any truth in this at all? It's clear the guy hasn't been doing his job even half-properly/heartedly for as long as I can remember to say the least. A great opportunity, if true, for the owners to bring in someone who actually cares about LR, will maximise our revenue streams, can manage to oversee our box office with a soupcon of competence, and start the fightback against the club's culture of complacency, contempt and mediocrity. WIth any luck, we can persuade him to get on the plane by Easter. [Post edited 18 Mar 2023 22:38]

We've still got the bunting you rolled out when Warburton left so we'll just recycle that. |  | |  |

That is pretty harsh....I say no more. I just feel now is the time to restart the club and perhaps the 'top boys' running the club need to be refreshed. |  | |  |
| Lee Hoos? on 09:48 - Mar 20 with 1160 views | paulhoop2 | Can’t quite believe no one mentions Andy Belk ? He defo needs the chop with these scouted analytical signings him and Les boasted about . Complete failure in my eyes along with Ramsey. Not one of the under 18 / 21 players are good enough ( well Drewe tries hard and Armstrong has potential ) but as Clive has said what about beyond that ? |  |

There's some dubious signings which look like manager signings not Belk. Balogun for example. Paal held up as a Belk signing, maybe one that both were aware of but Beale tried to claim it too. Not sure about JCS or Richards. Previously under Warburton it was Ball, Barbet and Wallace, so is he actually being fully utilised? I think the call on whether to keep Belk would need to be made by a new DOF once he's got to the bottom of whether he's actually been used or not. |  | |  |

| Lee Hoos? on 08:48 - Mar 19 by gazza1 | I have been a supporter of these guys, Hoos, Les, Ramsey etc BUT......sadly, they may have done their time at QPR. We cannot keep going on like we are - we are better than what we are now. The issue is who do we replace them with??? It will not be easy. I am very concerned what the 'money boys' will do - we are dead if they depart. |
100% this. |  |

| Lee Hoos? on 14:13 - Mar 20 with 896 views | davman | Hoos has recently admitted that we gambled. That seems so uncharacteristic for him, so I suspect that he was told to go for it by the owners. I would even suspect that he probably warned them against it as he has been about cutting costs since he came here. If that is true, where would we stand on that? Not his business, so if the owners came in, said go for it, sod your targets, what should he have done? Not sure he could have stopped them, so, is that on him or the owners? All supposition of course, just like 95% of this messageboard... |  |

Don't think I wanted to turn the town blue and white, Clive, but Warburton, whatever else his merits, had dramatically lost the plot on the field, as many here agreed. Right now, though, I'd happily wrap said bunting warmly around the throats of any number of people hitching a living on the good ship QPR. |  |

I have no doubt that it was a decision made by the owners. IF we ever made the Premier I would expect them to behave in the same way as previous, signing everybody going on huge wages. |  | |  |
