How very strange. Surely if that was the case (with the leg surgery) you'd resign at the start of the transfer window?

I don't blame Tony Fernandes. He gave Harry a lot of money and he hasn't delivered.

That's a bit misleading, half of the money he got was to recover from the fuck ups made by Hughes. Bosingwa on £90k a week for example.

I don't really see what they were going to achieve, lower mid-table would have been their absolute best but their appalling away record has put paid to that.

I think Harry's exit is face-saving, Fernandes' tweet yesterday was quite telling tbh

I was astonished he went back into football after leaving us to be honest. I assumed he'd at best go and work in Qatar or something but he's stuck at it there for much longer than I expected.

I think had he failed to get QPR back up he would have gone, but almost like he didn't want to go out on a low, but then when he got them back up he got a bit greedy. This decision saves him from another relegation I guess.

He was massively dejected yesterday I'm not surprised he's gone. Love him or hate him and I've done both, he is a good character in the game. Can't wait to see Redknapp Jr talking about this on Sky. Maybe he will stop slating us now and focus on QPR.

Edit: What was I thinking he would need his tongue removed before he stopped slating us....

They've been truly dreadful at times this season, and with the money they have spent they should certainly be doing better than they are.

In truth they were incredibly lucky to come back up in the first place and I think that's been exposed this year.

His signing of Ferdinand was laughable, and there's surely only so many times you can buy Niko Kranjcar?

Loved Harry for most of his time with us. But in general it's been a bit of a car crash at QPR.

Can't see Sherwood taking the job. A manager of his quality would only listen to serious offers from title challenging teams.

:woot:

Seriously, QPR don't have enough individual quality to fluke undeserved wins to cover up Timmy's awful tactics (or lack thereof).

And 'Arry's excuse is clearly bullshit of the highest order.

I did say he was having knee problems last year!!!

Couldn't they have given him a touchline golf kart to lean out of?

Not sure the FA would of allowed it, but it would have been a perfect way for Harry to manage.

How many managers has Sandro had (will have) since he's been in England now?

I think the signing of Kranjcar was funnier, I could get my head round the Ferdinand as more of an ambassador type...but then when you realised their best defender was Richard Dunne you knew it was absolute bedlam.

Has proved one thing to me though that I said for years, and that is Steven Caulker was always exceptionally overrated.

Nah, he's not allowed to have a golf cart.

Getting another club relegated is bad enough, never mind a whole bag full of them

Redknapp

Sherwood
Pochettino
Redknapp
AN Other

That's a decent stab at it.

So it'll be managers in 4.5 seasons by the time a replacement is brought in. Crazy
