Absolutely 110% not & has been confirmed by Tony Fernandes on twitter this week.

Our away kit is 4 square segments of red / white not hoops.

Our colours are blue & white why on gods name would we change colours?

Our owner also Malaysian is not an idiot & seems much more in touch with football & the club as a whole than your guys who unfortunately don't seem to know a thing about your history.

We are off to Asia on a pre season tour, a Premier league club in Malaysia & Indonesia is a MASSIVE deal to the people in them countries & is the correct way to build bridges, gain support & ultimately increase revenue NOT by re branding a club & throwing history to one side. The club will be travelling on a specially designed QPR Air Asia inscribed aeroplane & again this is all to build hype in those regions.

Would of been nice for your owners to think more along those lines rather than the cut throat way they are going about things right now.

I hope things settle down for you lads & you can start to enjoy pre season. At the moment that looks unlikely :(

Cracking post Stan, I still cant belive we are turning Red .

I always said we should go on a tour of Malaysia, play the local sides and a Malaysia XI. What better way to market yourself in another region?

Re: QPR.......

Fri Jun 22, 2012 3:21 pm

Cheers Blue.

Canton, your owners a wealthy smart people what are they thinking?

I said in another thread last week they have this fascination with the colour red being something that will pave they're paths with gold, I'm not so sure. Celtic, Rangers, Spurs, Chelsea have all got massive followings in Asia & beyond,do any of them have a hint of red? No of course they don't.

Ok it can be argued they are bigger clubs playing European football etc but the fact remains the colour red does not come into the equation.

Also if it was all about changing to red to increase support / revenue, why change your badge?

Wasn't sure what my thoughts were the other day but on reflection the whole thing stinks.

Your absolutely spot on Stan, our owners just dont care. Its all about how much they can make off us not for the love of the club.

In a word......YES! in an interview on QPR Player, he even had a dig at your guys, without naming them by saying, "We will never change our home shirts, unlike some". The QPR plane is being readied for the tour and just in case some of you missed the post I made earlier this week click on the link.

Thanks for your kind thoughts Stan....but personally speaking I'm really looking forward to the pre-season and can't wait for the proper season to start too. This could be a great season for us. :ayatollah:

QPR take on Hodges
Eurosport | Sat, Jul 21, 12:28

QPR have appointed Glyn Hodges as head of coaching and coach education. The 49-year-old is a former Welsh team-mate of manager Mark Hughes, who he worked with on the coaching staff at Blackburn, Manchester City and Fulham.

Re: QPR.......

Sat Jul 21, 2012 7:47 pm

The difference is that QPR is being marketed in Malaysia.

Our owners want to market us in China, hence the red, because of the significantly high population.

What part of that is so difficult to grasp? :?

Can't wait to see his answer to this.

If what he is saying is right then surely every team in China. Would play in red right?!! :?

Top Cat, Ki is a very very good player & shows our owners are really going for it. You may laugh bit they want European football, Europa league may be a slim possibility believe it or not. 3/1 to finish top 10.
