Talk Sport said 2pm, and also reported on a £4M bid on Parker and that Warnock would take in 6-7 new players before the transfer window closes.
As long as the PC isnt about Warnock getting the boot, am happy...

Let's hope its a positive announcement that the takeover is happening not like the last one when it was that it wasn't happening!! The immediate withdrawl of F. Briatore & B. Ecclestone from the board and the immediate sacking/resignation of G Paladini would make my day for sure.

Agreed Andy,
Hopefully some sanity will prevail and these guys will disappear to the stone they came from under, i have got to admit that before he came to Rangers,Ecclestone looked like a dodgy piece of work, this and the shear nerve of the ticket increase confirmed it.
cheers,
Jay.
P.S. Give us back our badge!!!!!!

Amit Bhatia starting of talking about mostly stuff we already know. The usual "I'm thrilled" from TF. Says Warnocks passion and enthusiasm is infectious ;D WARNOCK HAS FULL SUPPORT! Warnock will be given what he requires. talking about the staff, saying how great they have been in the last weeks. New CEO of QPR is Phil Beard, he was CEO of the O2 and spearheaded the London Olympic bid. Wants a transparent and communicative club. Warnock again confirms Amit brought him to the club. He is VERY excited. He says Tony's plans for not only the first team but the whole club are very exciting. Working very hard to bring new players in. Won't comment on previous owners, Says you will have to read about it in his book ;D Has a lot of targets. Peter Crouch was never a target, he is looking at quality players though. Back to Tony, he wants the team to come to him and he will sign whoever they ask for. Will invest in the training ground and acadamy. TF is a great guy, cracking jokes about Warnock. TF says the bid for Parker was not made by him There will be new quality players coming in. Tony believes in stability, won't ever tell Warnock who to play. Says the club needs a solid backbone. From what he says I can tell he will not sell Warnock Amit gives credit to Bernie and Flavio. He has spoken to Tony about changing ticket prices.

No doubt about it, Tony talks the talk. Time will tell but so far, so good.
Amit gives the "previous owners credit where it's due"

Also from what Amit said at the end regarding Gianni it sounds like he no longer has a place at the club.
