" I've said to them if they want to stick around then do what I say and if they don't then they will be leaving," he said. "I suppose in the past they must have thought 'we'll be all right in a couple of weeks'." TEAMTALK NewsProfileResultsSquadYour Say Warnock: I'm in it for the long haul QPR manager Neil Warnock feels the club's players are benefiting from knowing he has signed a long-term contract at Loftus Road. Warnock is Rangers' fifth manager of the season but, following the departure of controversial chairman Flavio Briatore, his appointment on a three-and-a-half-year deal looks set to usher in a rare period of stability in west London. While so-called 'player-power' is rumoured to have accounted for some Hoops managers in the past, Warnock has made it clear he will be around a lot longer than any squad members who do not want to play ball. "I've said to them if they want to stick around then do what I say and if they don't then they will be leaving," he said. "I suppose in the past they must have thought 'we'll be all right in a couple of weeks'." www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,16368,1801_6015074,00.html

Good stuff. Also going to Uncle Gianni or getting their agents to do it won't be an option now.

It wont change. Fair dues to Colin for saying that but the players will still take the direct to Gianni route.

Holloway was there 5 years, got us to Wembley, promotion, and a higher finish in this division than any of his successors.
But he still went.
Winning keeps managers in their jobs. Not contracts, or putting the players in their place.
So far so good. The manager won't need to know where the door is as long as the players know where the net is.
Otherwise, I agree with him. How the players get away with it I have no idea, but the managers have only their own vanity to blame. They peddle the myth that more should be expected of the manager than the players. If more was expected of the players, perhaps we'd do something about them, rather than simply dumping him.
When did we ever hear that the squad had eliminated their own deficiencies. By working at them, say? And why do we pay coaches and managers millions if THEY can't show the players how to do it on the training pitch?
It never seems to cross the players' minds to ask whether THEY'RE worth the money. But they needn't bother, I'll tell them. When a Club makes a £5 million loss, a £6 million loss, then an £18 million loss, it needs players like this like a hole in the head.
Keep it up, Colin. You have no choice.

Of course Holloway only went because of GIANNI.

If Colin is genuinely in full charge of all team matters, playing staff, selection etc it has to be a good thing for the squad. The players knew before they could divide, undermine and conquer any previous manager/coach due to the interference and someone's willingness to disrupt any authoirty they had.
If palyers know that only one person decides whether they play or fight for a place or "rot in the reserves" matters can only improve. Hopefully this has already been demonstrated and the new board are saying the right things.
I just hope it continues and Colin is backed for the duration of his contract, regardless.

We have lost some good managers, we have lost some great managers because of Gianni. We have not played with Fullbacks for two years, becuase Gianni thinks you can play 14 stone converted Centre Backs in the most athletically demanding & dynamic position in Modern Football IE Fullback, we have made dozens of blatantly Dodgy deasls in the transfer market under Gianni, you can go back as long as he has been at the club for numerous examples, in January we signed Nigel Quashie = very very dodgy. I do have faith is these hugely succesful Indian businessmen to put Gianni on his way in this summer, I dont remember one single individual who has hamstrung our club more than Gianni Paladini, we will never be successful whilst Gianni Paladini is still allowed to be involved at our football club, he is not a good man, he has made a lot of money out of QPR, he is a Cancerous parasite at our club. PALADINI OUT.

Holloway had a bad season after the 10th place finish, and, if I remember correctly, started the next season poorly. Not many managers survive a poor run of form.

As I recall it (I obviously didn't experience the "quality" of the games): Holloway's next season was the Gun/Boardroom coup season. And we actually started great. And until the end of the year we were in chance of the playoffs (even while Paladini was involved in player transfer dealings)...Then a slump...and then Gardening leave. This of course doesn't detract from the general rule of managers not surviing poor runs

And the sad thing is is that QPR fans, ( barring one or two obvious exceptions ) are not a stupid bunch, I'd be interested to find out how many of us are 100% convinced that GP / FB have really handed the baton over to the Indians or is this just a bit of window dressing to appease the fans ? remember, WE ARE NOT A STUPID BUNCH! a lot of us know about Football more than you do!
Personally I think the appointment of Warnock, shows that something has changed for the better, but I'm not ready to jump on the bandwagon just yet, I think you have to be dubious & keep certain emotions at arms length when you have blatantly dodgy people involved. Simple minded people can be hoodwinked as is obviously a main part of the whole Gianni thing, but I think its our duty as QPR fans to question what the real story is & what has really been going on, why have good people, great people been sacked & yet the scumbag parasite remains, if thats not dodgy, then I dont know what is. Paladini put the final nails in his coffin over what happened with Paulo Sousa, everyone knows that as well. PALADINI OUT.

It's twofold: Whether Briatore still has influence (and what percentage shares)? And whether Paladini still has influence
For Warnock, he's already gotten a better pay deal, so however it turns out... He also has more of a loyal team around him
And Paladini and his leaking friends have to be careful. Saksena doesn't look to be gullible or susceptible to bullshit or lies! And Paladini and friends (or whatever you want to call them) know they'll be held accountable for their deeds and words
