Interesting wonder what future holds.
Ruben seems to be the main player for quite sometime now so wonder if he sees himself as looking do total takeover. Assuming he’s covering most the debts each month.
How deep are his pockets.

Meh. Quite liked the bloke - i think his heart was in the right place but incredibly naive &, looking at the cold hard facts, during his tenure we've gone backwards as a football team & spunked a small fortune for the privilege.... So thanks, but don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Does beg the question about where the club is headed though.

Not sure how much the rest do. The board are losing fortunes. How much longer will they prepared to do so? We have lost someone prepared to pump tens (maybe even hundreds) of millions of pounds into our club. I would say this news was concerning rather than anything to celebrate. |

Suspect Ruben is taking over. He’s suddenly doing interviews, got new staff in(based on those interviews), has talked about running his sports franchise in the USA and appears more hands on.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that Ruben is the man calling the shots in the boardroom these days.

As said above I genuinely think he had right intentions. Just made some bad decisions and got fooled by the so-called “football” men of the game…..Redknapp, Hughes, Ferdinand etc.

Thank you, Tony, for buying a debt free premier league club, and turning into a shit league 1 standard club, saddled with millions of pounds worth of debt.
You have cemented your place as the worst owner/chairman in our history.
I hope you lose all your wealth in the not to distant future.
Fuck you.

Tony tried but has been a disaster tbh
Appointing Mark Huges and his agent
Followed by Rednapp destroyed Qpr football club
I blame them more than him pants down Tony

i think reilly and ruben will be upping their shares. reilly was brought onto the board by ruben irc as they're both invested in a US sports team together.
ruben has been the main man for a while but i think he's starting to show it more. i pointed out the other day how he was the only board member present at the kit reveal, not that board members even need to be there but i thought it was quite telling and a statement from ruben to the fans.

For 13 million last month or other shares ?

A stack full

As of the last accounts, Fernandes had 26.81% Statement does not say how these have now been split between the remaining shareholders. |

First two years were disastrous because he had no football knowledge. We bought several has beens with their last multiyear contract. He had good intentions and good heart. Did some good job re Remy and Austin.

Completely agree with Gen.
Fernandes' heart was in the right place, but he was terribly advised by those who just fleeced him (and us) left right and centre.
Oversaw some fabulous times and some shockingly bad ones.
This from Gnanalingam:
He may not have been the most astute football club owner, but he was an honourable man and paid for his naivety by writing off massive debts. Plenty of other, bigger clubs have been left to sink.
What now?
All-new leadership, ideas and progress - or gradual decline and apathy from an increasingly disinterested board?
I think the new training complex signals a certain intent by the owners and will see then with us for a few more years yet.
Will be interesting to see who Tony sold his shares to...

Do hope we’re not having too many dramas behind the scenes to spill over and affect team. Shouldn’t happen but it does. Enough to contend with given what is still looking a poor squad.

I'm not sure there has been any confrontation as such Al. The same person who told me back in March that Les was likely on his way, also said he didn't believe it would be the only change at Director/Board level.
I think a significant reshuffle has been on the cards for a long while.

I personally found it odd that the club have appointed an American analytical company to find the new DOF.
