He seems to be the sort of manager that would need time at a club to get his ideas across.

18 out of 24 Championship clubs have sacked their manager this year!

4 have made 2 changes!

I would be very surprised if he did move. Wycombe are only 3 points off the playoff positions in League 1 whilst QPR are 6 points above the drop with 1 game more played than those in the bottom 3 and with a similar goal difference to them as well.

And he's always seemed to be comfortable at Wycombe. He gets results with no real pressure from his board and he has the fans full backing. Whereas QPR is a toxic environment (admittedly, as are a few of those London clubs) currently.

I'd be surprised to an extent, he's pretty much to them what Robins is to us, done a great job and basically part of the furniture at this point.

QPR are a much bigger club, in a higher league, whom he played for.
If he’s offered the job I’d be surprised if he didn’t take it.

QPR is where he had the most successful spell of his playing career so there is bound to be an emotional tug to him returning to manage there. He is also near the upper limit of how far he can realistically take Wycombe, so I can see the QPR job being very attractive to him.

If he takes it I wouldn't be surprised to see him back at Wycombe within 2 years, feels a bit like Eddie Howe leaving Bournemouth for Burnley and to a lesser extent MR leaving us the first time. Sometimes it just works at a club.

What are they looking at if found guilty, fine and/or points deduction?

Wonder what this might actually mean punishment wise? It's hardly as if the whatever they've done wrong is to their advantage on the pitch. Their club is in a dismal state.

Their form after the World Cup break is dreadful, they always seem to struggle after Christmas but just manage to stay up.

They’re a club that almost needs to get relegated so it can sort all its shit out. They will also be due a decent cut of Bellingham’s probable summer transfer.

M they look like a club that pay wages that are to high for their income, players like Deeney won’t come cheap.

They won’t, their owner might.
I think the Blue noses could be right in the cart if they get found guilty reckon they’ll get a big points deduction.

Not surprising if this is what they're served up week in week out. I'm sure it was nearly packed out when we went there and thrashed them 0-1

Was that the first shot on the 21st minute?

Manhandling going on in the West Brom box right in front of the ref . All the player is short off is linking his arms together round him.

3-2 Watford, not looking good for the Baggies they are desperate for the big premier money, their owner not the best and just taken out a 20million quid wonga type bridging loan and he owes them £5million which he is dragging his heels paying back.
Perhaps we could pinch Jonathon Swift on the cheap, rate him, be ideal in our midfield, ex-Chelsea too.

Had a couple of good seasons in terms of goals and assists for Reading but doesn't work anywhere near as hard as you have to in our side

They signed him on a free, so wages will be prohibitive.

I think that he’s implying that over 24 in demand free agents can often command high wages for say a 3 year contract because clubs haven’t had to shell out on a transfer fee.

Have a bit of extra sympathy for the Blues after they helped us out with a ground share. Robins described them as “class” in how they treated us.

Feel empathy with their fans, we know what it’s like to have daft owners.
