Because I'd like to have advocates for Paladini/Critics of Sousa hear so we can discuss. I can try and play Devil's Advocate but obviously the true believers are best. Serious offer. You won't get insulted. Because I've (now) seen elsewhere and for the most part it's like people talking past each other.

Gianni is a Demi-God, he brought in Briatore and Eccelestone when we could have folded! He got rid of that evil Bill Power.
God, I sound like two others on various messageboards.
(BP I thinkyou know me better than that!)

He loves football. He's a very friendly guy. He has a lot of contacts.
Sousa really hasn't performed in achievement. Sure people can say great coach. But maybe he's not a great manager. And yes he can blame lack of strikers. But just plays one forward.
Briatore et al have spent millions of their own money. They want success as much as us. They are very successful businesmen. Trust them.
Your turn!

I know that !@#$%^ doesn't make things up, especially when a gun is held at ones head. He's been the one constant during the last few turbulent years.
Your turn.

He tried. If he ever told a white lie or two, it was to boost the club. If he said not a penny less for Shittu or Cook - and he accepted less: That was just a bargaining tool.
And some of the vitriol against him - and the bullet proof and some wild charges. Well surely that just proves that all the negative things said about him were wrong.

If GP wasn't at the club we wouldn't have secured the consultation services of his missus at a knock down price. He is also a true football man, buying crocked players that otherwise may not find a club, happy to pay half the wages of a player bought for Brighton to help out their injury worries. He is a legend, saved us all, FACT etc

Sure he occasionally swears/looses his temper (I'm going to kill you...I'm going to f***ing kill you") but hey that's because he's "Mediterranean" and flamboyant and CARES about football.
And to be serious, he did do that nice thing re that child in Liverpool. And also to be serious, I think there is some DEMONIZATION of him. There's much I don't like. But sometimes the criticism goes too far. (And I also didn't like the characterization of him as "A waiter." - as though there was something shameful in that. That was wrong)
And he does love Football. And we are all members of the human race. And "We Are Family"
Over to you...

Yes you can. You can do it.
And then when this exercise is over, I look to Pete to do the reverse and offer some criticisms of Paladini. ("Well sometimes he's just too generous")

You would be too if your sauce at the club was that high-a-ranking. Allegedly of course.

When you form a career as an indentured servant you always serve people. Quite frankly, I think his service sucks right now. Flab's boutique/restuarant needs new staff....sack him ; )

If this is true why do the clubs accounts show such an enormous level of debt.What has actually happened is that they have spent the equity that was left on the value of the ground.It is still owed by QPR. We are reaching a point where new expenditure will be their money - and they don't like it. You only have to look at the deep cuts being made. You could hardly say they love the club - they only came to make money Your turn!

well as you know mike i was always a paladini fan in fact I got banned from the dot org for FIGHTING HIS CORNER but i am only using my own sense of perception we all get told differant things and i trusted gianni would bring in more investers which he did all i want to see is a return to the prem i dont beleive that flaviio got sousa to drop dexter i think sousa screwed up bigtime and tried to say this as a defence mechanism sousa had dexter score five goals in his first eighgt games but he then decided to drop him then having destroyed dexters confidence he then realised he had finished qpr we would have made the [lay offs if he had not dropped dexter
