Well Fernandes may be about to show his true colours. When he twattered that he had made a bid for West Ham - to coincide with the appointment of Allardyce - he claimed to be a West Ham fan. Well how many West Ham fans would want to buy QPR?
So why the interest? Perhaps he is a little confused. Perhaps he saw Gabbidon score an own goal and Dyer carried off after seven minutes and thought West Ham had simply changed their kit, ground and name. QPR are bottom of the Prem after all, and that's where we spent most of last season! A hammering at home to Bolton would simply have added to the potential for confusion!
Or maybe the Malaysian is arse licking Bernie Ecclestone. Let's face it, the little grey haired runt is the power broker in Formula 1 and that is Fernandes' chief sporting interest.
Or most likely, this is another attempt by Fernandes to grab the headlines with no real substance behind the twattering. QPR fans are probably thinking anybody would be better than the current owners but they should look closely at what has happened at Birmingham. There really are owners out there worse even than Sullivan & Gold!

Did SuGo not buy Birmingham? Oh sorry you're right West Ham fans wouldn't buy another club but people out to make a buck might call themselves West Ham fans
...maybe the 'big fan' [hahaha] will now buy Parker for QPR...
LOL Good point Deane.
Exactly Deane. And conversely, the West Ham 'fans' that did buy us, managed to relegate us within a season.
Relegation was on the cards long before they took over.
The rot set in during the biscuitmen era the moment we sacked Curbishley and employed that numpty Gianfranco 'I don't know what to do with wingers' Zola.
They probably realised that when they employed Avram, no point in spending Millions on wages and an end-of-season pay-off if you're going down anyway.
Jameson,
They had one and a half seasons in the Prem and 3 transfer windows. We were relegated under them. Are you saying they had no chance to save us?
Personally I don't think so. The squad was threadbare when they took over and would have cost absolutely millions to get it back to even near the quality it had been under Curbs (which admittedly wasn't that quality either).
We had no strength in depth after losing the likes of Bobby Z, James Collins and Matty Etherington (none of whom were past it judging by their last couple of seasons in the Prem)and the few signings they could afford were never going to save us (hence the release clauses in the contracts of the players they did sign)as the squad needed a complete overhaul.
I think they realised we were nailed on for relegation at some point in the next couple of seasons and let it happen so they could start trimming the deadwood and rebuild.
Now if we could only get rid of Green and Parker......
