...Vialli, Costacurta, Barese, Roeder, Hoddle, Pearce, Keegan, Jewell, Warnock, Adams, Allen, Klinsman, Ferdinand, Terry Venables was "mentioned" as either being wanted by QPR or hoping QPR will be interested in them
October 7, 2007 - The People/Tom Hopkinson - Tel's QPR shocker! -EXCLUSIVE
Terry Venables last night emerged as a shock contender to become QPR's new manager.
People Sport understands England's No.2 has made Loftus Road bigwigs aware that he would be interested in a sensational return to the club he led in the early 80s.
Venables has put his name into the melting pot along with a staggering 192 other applicants - including another former England boss, Glenn Hoddle.
Andnew QPR owners Flavio Briatore and Bernie Ecclestone, with chairman Gianni Paladini, must now decide whether the former club captain, shareholder and managing director is the man for the job.
Venables, who made 179 appearances for QPR, would be able to combine the role with his current duties as Steve McClaren's secondin-command within the England set-up.
And a return to club management would enable him to get back into the English game on a day-to-day basis for the first time since he was sacked by Leeds in 2003. The People
Sunday Mirror/Paul Smith, October 7 - Rangers to target Warnock
EXCLUSIVE - Qpr will this week give Neil Warnock the chance to return to management as the successor to John Gregory, axed eight days ago.
Former Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder has been interviewed and there have been suggestions Rangers will move for Chelsea assistant boss Steve Clarke.
But former Sheffield United boss Warnock has emerged as the club's No.1 target and plans are afoot to thrash out a deal with him in the next few days.
The one potential stumbling block for the appointment is growing interest from London and Championship rivals Crystal Palace.
Rumours are rife that Peter Taylor is on the brink of being fired by Palace chairman Simon Jordan and he has already earmarked Warnock to replace him.

Or Tony Adams: October 7, 2007...!
Daily Mail on Fulham vs Portsmouth Match Report:
"... Rumours suggested Briatore wants Pompey coach Tony Adams as QPR manager but Redknapp was quick to quash them.
"I spoke to the QPR chairman last week," he said. "He was asking if I knew a good manager but Mick Harford is doing a good job at the moment and so it was difficult for me. He didn' t mention Tony Adams and I don't think that's true."
Instead he assumed Briatore had dashed round the globe in anticipation of a goal feast, but there was little to keep him awake in the first 40 minutes...." Mail
