Do you want QPR to get relegated?

We should play a game of predict the result - and the Teflon excuse soundbite.

I'll go first:

19th Oct Home versus Liverpool -
Result: 0-2
Soundbite: "Well the lads are still a bit jaded after the recent internationals. We only started full training on Thursday afternoon"

27th Oct Home versus Aston Villa -
Result: 1-2
Soundbite: "I'm scratching my 'ead 'ere; the lads did everything but we just aint getting the reults.

1st Nov Away versus Chelsea -
Result: 3-0
Soundbite: "Well they've spent a fortune on some top, top players. They got a massive wage-bill and it's difficult to compete in this league with all the money other clubs are splashing out."

8th Nov Home versus Emirates Marketing Project -
Result: 1-6
Soundbite: "I inherited a mess here; a lot of these players just do not wanna graft. It's an attitude that rotten to the core of the side and it's gonna take a miracle to get rid of it."

Do you not like him?
 
what a pointless thread, guess we can put it down to it being the equally pointless period known as the international break

Don't forget the one about how the chairman needs to spend some money on players, despite having been bankrupted throwing massive wages at has-beens.
 
thinking about it logically, irrespective of redknapp and the ex players, yes I do want them to get relegated, it's 2 london derbys less next season, there always seems to be extra pressure on these games regardless of the opposition, look how West Ham always raise themselves against us

If the chairman is stupid enough to give him the money then he's equally to blame, if not more so. You asked a poster if AVB had shagged his mum or girlfriend, could ask the same to your re your mate Arry.

The chairman does, but Redknapp doesn't have the right to bitch about a lack of transfer funds if he's spent it all on wages for people who have his mates for agents he has worked with before.

I don't like him because he's a slimy little thieving untrustworthy ****er. He's the Sol Campbell of football managers and the one thing that benefits from every club he goes to is his own pocket.
 
Personally I think Redknapp made a mistake buying a bunch of players who have had seasons in teams that did awefully. Caulker, Fer and Mutch all got relegated last season and Ferdinand was part of the UTD team that finished 7th last season. Most of the squad have experienced relegation and you have to wonder how they will react if they are at the bottom come December.
 
Harry Redknapp's position at Queens Park Rangers is under increasing threat, with the club’s hierarchy considering replacing him with former Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood.

Redknapp is not in immediate danger of losing his job but relations between him and the board have become strained in recent weeks following a poor start to the season which has left QPR bottom of the Premier League table with one win from seven matches.

Talks had begun over a new contract several months ago but Redknapp’s unwillingness to commit - a stance he declared publicly last week - combined with QPR’s abject displays have prompted chairman Tony Fernandes to ponder alternatives.

Fernandes remains an admirer of Redknapp but the lack of spirit in many of QPR’s performances this season have led to suggestions internally that the club may soon need to make a change.

For now, Fernandes is supportive of Redknapp yet mindful of how long the club waited before sacking Mark Hughes in 2012 - 12 games into the campaign. His resolve could be tested further with matches to come against Liverpool, Aston Villa, Chelsea and Emirates Marketing Project.

Sherwood’s name has been raised by club officials and it is believed the former midfielder is keen to return to work after his five-month spell in charge at White Hart Lane.

Les Ferdinand was Sherwood’s assistant during his time at Spurs and is now QPR’s head of football operations. Sherwood had chances to return to the game after he left Spurs but could not reach an agreement with West Brom or Crystal Palace.

Despite his unpopularity among a section of Spurs fans, Sherwood left the club with a win percentage of 59 per cent in the Premier League, the best of any boss at White Hart Lane since 1992.

No decision has yet been taken on Redknapp, whose contract expires at the end of the season, but a marked improvement in performance is required to avoid further pressure on Fernandes to act.

I love the part about Redknapp being unwilling to commit to a new contract. When he eventually gets fired he will obviously do his best to paint himself as the victim.

According to a QPR forum:

Defoe 75% done.
Crouch is a top target. Was supposed to sign in Harry's first window, but Pulis changed his mind.
They're all praying it's Pulis coming in rather than Temporary Tim.
