Warren Farm has been delayed by legal challenges from a small group of local residents, who are/were within their rights. Not sure if all the legal challenges have been exhausted but must be close. I don't think anybody should blame TF for that.

Perhaps Sir Les could use his Spurs contacts to find out who handles their planning issues.

It's not a motley crew he has to beat but the planning laws of the UK, which allow half a dozen opponents to delay worthwhile schemes for years and years. And not just WF.

Chelsea had no trouble building a state of the art training complex in leafy Surrey, we can't even do it in proxy Southall.

You might find pushing things through just before elections is an issue

There's a proposed development around the corner from me in Ealing which has caused much consternation for about 18 months. I'm sure it was about to be rubber stamped until it suddenly went "pending" and has been for 4 months.
Our local Councillor is on the Planning Committee and I believe he is also running mate for the MP in the area. He knows this will cause an issue when it gets approved --- I've told him I know for a fact it will due to the nature of the revised bid by this "local community church"

You say WF is Southall by "proxy" (!!!) and assume things will roll through in this area. It may well do so in Southall itself as there's all sorts of Wild West things occurring there with planning and ethnic networking rumours but this is actually nearer to Osterely which has some cracking houses and a fair degree of wealth. I personally dont understand it as if I lived there I'd far rather the WF proposal than potentially a massive housing estate, something for TESCO's or SKY continuing their Masterplan
Incidentally - all Murdochs plans in the area (3 minutes away) have been waved through but I believe this may well be Hounslow Council --- we'd get a lot of SKY exposure and "joint use" if WF was built with SKY a stones throw away

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

We all know that Fernandes went cold on Warren Farm because we were relegated. One minute we were going to build state of the art training facilities then suddenly the board decided that we just needed the basics. I don't believe it was because of the residents (one man and his dog) it was due to financial reasons.

If Tony wants out of Rangers, he should get prepared to swallow a massive loss. What has he done for us apart from land us in huge debt?

Last summer was when the "turnaround" happened. The first judicial review was won in March 14 then leave for appeal granted Since then the group are now trying to get Warren Farm listed as an asset of community value for which the "community" then gets the right to bid

There is quite fierce local politics about this proposal, so its really not as straightforward as some of the snipes make out

Why is it that a thread like this attracts posters that only ever turn up to say something negative? There is a load of posters on this thread I have never seen post before and one or two that spout their crap off on twitter but no body listens to you. For the first time ever I am going to use my ignore button on several posters.

Just for the record, for a balanced view:

Do I think TF has doge a good job - No
Do I think he has the best intentions - Yes
Should he step down - Yes
Should he sell up - No
Have we learnt anything - we'll see in the summer but I genuinely think so.

Are we staying up?

The shareholders have already written off £60m. So lets say a nice round £200m debt.

Apart from £19m of bank debt which is secured over the ground the rest is interest free and its owed to the shareholders.

That state of affairs can continue for many years as long as they start to balance the books on a yearly basis which will happen once we reach the end of this season and most of the dross comes off the books.

Its not ours in this capitalist society but who wants to live in a Stalinist type, Mao type, Castro type economy where everything is allegedly equal but very few things work (I exclude the Moscow underground from that).

These shareholders are going nowhere soon. They have learned hard lessons but aint going to write off another £200m or so.

Just thought you should know that, although I'm surprised you didn't have that detail at your fingertips.

"Balance the books on a yearly basis".

So that means a low half of the Championship budget then?

When was the last time QPR " balanced the books"?

Face it, the £200m debt, interest free or not will KILL this club.

	Can we go out yet?

Erm, yes they did!
Cobham wasn't close to being their first or preferred location and they met plenty of local resistance which blocked them.

Don't recall that happening during the Abramovich era.

The failure of Warren Farm has more to do with our club than it has the residents. Tony's entire view of Warren Farm change dramatically, it went from grand plans to basic facilities. Not being able to build on Warren Farm shouldn't affect what type of facilities you require. It was a financial decision.

And you know that as a fact or is it just an argument that suits your usual negative doom mongering ?

As I've said unpteen times before , the Mittals have had ample opportunity over the past few years to take on majority/100% shareholding - clearly they don't want to.

In the last 12 months when following us winning a judicial review the opposition changed legal tact. TF is not stupid it was a statement aimed at Ealing Council not to give way to this change of legal tact. The reality is Warren Farm wont happen not because of a will from QPR but because it is tied up in legal challenges and will remain so it seems for some time.

The problem with TF is that he wants land virtually handed to him instead of paying for it - OOC included. He'd much rather waste money on mercenary footballers.
