Dave Mc pretty categorical about us and Powell. The club "won't appoint another black manager."
I'm sure a few people will be delighted to get "their" club back. |
If thats really how some of our fans feel i find that disgusting i really do and a real bloody shame! |  |
| AND WHEN I DREAM , I DREAM ABOUT YOU AND WHEN I SCREAM I SCREAM ABOUT YOU!!!!! | | Poll: | best number 10 ever? |

as Les is black, our CEO American and all our owners are not English, not sure how Dave Mc can come up with that nonsense. |  | | |

It's not nonsense. If the next manager is black plenty are going to say he only got the job due to his skin colour so I'd be very surprised if they go down that road.
Skin colour shouldn't matter but you only have to listen to comments around Loftus Road from fans and on things on social media to know it is a big issue still [Post edited 8 Nov 2016 15:28]

Sorry Dave,
Have to disagree big time with you here.
Because some fans think there is a race agenda, the club should acknowledge that and worse, appease that faction of fans?
That's (almost) as bad as the racist opinions themselves! | | | |

If Powell was the outstanding candidate then he'd get the job but he's not so if he got the job the questions would be asked | | | |

Bang to rights, John. And Dave Mc only said that publicly to help back me up.
Keep it to yourself but Bill Power is in on it too. |  | | |

That's subtly different to your first response.
You didn't say if Powell is the next manager questions will be asked, you said if next manger is black questions will be asked and Dave Mc implies the same thing.
If best candidate is black, yellow or purple for that matter we should appoint him - its quite simple, anything else IS wrong! | | | |

I think we should draw the line at purple candidates

I agree anything else is wrong but thats not the world we live in and I think if we hire Powell this time when there are arguably better candidates available, Ferdinand will be heavily accused of only bringing him in as he is black and I think the club want to avoid that sceanrio | | | |

you say better candidates but the 3 things any potential manager will want to know is...
a) what LF's brief
b) whether there's money available for players in Jan.
c) how much they'll get paid
if they don't like the answer to those questions then they stop becoming candidates |  |

Chris Powell would be Les Ferdinands best choice. And we all know why that is...âš«ï¸âš«ï¸ #qpr #justsaying
To pretend that there aren't racist undertones to some of our supporters' comments is simply wrong (or overtly racist in this case) |  | | |

Its not the message, if QPR fans are a cross section of society some must be racist, its the way it Is expressed I find irritating. Apologises if I have misunderstood but I find it disturbing that you suggest I am overtly racist [Post edited 8 Nov 2016 17:36]

No chairman or dof in history has been criticised for appointing three white candidates in a row - even though most clubs have never appointed anything but. Proud that we are one of the very, very few clubs to buck that ugly trend.
Agree Powell probably not the best choice though. Like him, mind - and a QPR fan, too. |  |

The reason David mc is going on about getting our club back and saying it's due to racism harks back to his piece about Ramsey's face not fitting in.
This has come about due to the so called "qpr fans" banging on about Sir Les and Co looking after "each other"
I honestly don't believe he believes we as fans are racist he is speaking directly to the racist who contact him on twitter.
We all know that twitter gives the ignorant a platform don't let them drag this website down as well. | | | |

Chris Powell's main problem is that the QPR Chant Committee (est. 2015) have only really got 'Towel' or 'Bowel' to work with. You just can't argue with facts like that. |  |
| 'What do we want? We don't know! When do we want it? Now!' |

your right and it is a ridiculous situation but I can't be the only one who has seen these kind of comments on social media about Ferdinand | | | |

I was referring to that tweet not you mate.
You're right of course, but that's different to insisting that there isn't a racist undertone to a lot of the aggro thrown at Les. | | | |
