BBC Blackburn takes charge at QPR


Nick Blackburn has been installed as the new chairman of QPR,
following the club's exit from administration last week.
Blackburn was vice-chairman to Chris Wright, and then acting chairman
following Wright's resignation last year.

Rangers chief executive David Davies had been strongly tipped to take on
the role of chairman, having helped steer the club through its crisis period.
However, Davies will be staying in his current job, while director Ross Jones
has taken over as chairman of parent company Loftus Road plc.

That was often a cause of argument, the rights and wrongs of the ABC loan.

Still all that aside now and more positively, one thing I can say for Old Nick, he did have a great knowledge of any and every team we were playing. Whether the crafty old bugger was reading scouting briefs I don't know and in all honesty I think not

The chap on the right for those who don't know and might be interested is our former director and still life long fan Lord [Terry] Burns. You couldn't ask to meet a nicer chap.
