Read on BU that our owner could take tips from QPR owner Tony Fernandez on how to run a club. I have now officially heard it all.

I thought BU had internally combusted.

Tony Fernandez is an owner who respects the clubs traditions and meets the fans, who he says are the life and blood of the club. Fernandez says the fans should be consulted before decisions are made, such as their plans of moving to a new stadium. Fernandez also says although he would love QPR to play in red, he has bought a club who play in blue and white hoops, that is who QPR are and he would never change that. Vincent Tan could take loads of tips from Fernandez on how a football club and the fans should be treated. Unfortunately, we have ended up with the wrong Malaysian owner. :(

It's true, Fernandes could teach Tan a thing or two about how to work alongside fans and garner fans backing.. However, Tan is far more shrewd when it comes to the business side of things - judging by QPRs transfer records in the premiership.

It says "take tips" which is a perfectly acceptable thing to say in my eyes.

Of course but what you said was incorrect, I am merely pointing that out.

Not at all, I haven't actually seen the post at all on Facebook - I lifted the quotes from your opening post. So if anything was wrong, it is your original post.
