I would have been more worried if we'd bought Remy, Samba, Crouch, Olsson and Odemwingie on long term deals, having Jenas (eek!) and Townsend on loan deals won't hurt their pockets too much, DJ Campbell went to Blackburn for a reported £2.5m of any real consequence going out.

Fernandes is a good businessman, let's hope this calculated risk pays off.

God I'm bricking it

I'd be bricking it too...

You might have Fernandes and The Mittals funding QPR at the minute, but it won't last forever.

Fernandes is a good businessman and, like all good businessmen, he will know when to cut his losses and get out. If it doesn't look profitable, then he'll move on. Don't think for one second that love of the club will keep him funding it for no return.

You're talking to a Newcastle fan here, we know all about it. Mike Ashley loves the club, but if it starts costing him too much money, he sell and get out. He has tried it once before when things got tough, thankfully he changed his mind and instead is trying to rebuild it to become self-sustaining.

If you go down, I honestly think you are in a world of trouble as a club...

Fairly scathing assessment of arry and QPR's approach to the window.

It's bang on isn't it. Only a few weeks ago Harry was saying how QPR players were on "crazy money....more than the Spurs team" and now look at it. Mind he has previous doesn't he.

This is where football in this country is so fked up...these clubs are part of the community and the FA let some owners turn up....have a swing at the big time and if it doesn't come off they walk away and the club is ruined...perhaps for ever but at a minimum for 5 to 10 years.

Tv money for the premiership goes up by an additional £14 million next season, certainally worth qpr trying to do something now to try and stay up.

Although parachute payment would be circa 16 million in the first year so I do think they could financially survive the drop reasonably comfortably for atleast a year or two especially if they then got rid of some of the big earners, who would then want to try and move IMHO.

Personally I think qpr will stay up.
