Bernie Ecclestone becomes majority shareholder of QPR

Just coming across the yellow bar of SSN, waiting for a link to come up for it.

Will be interesting to see how they get on with a billionaire owner in the championship, and with their current form probably the Premiership too.

if they do go up, then unless he spends loads they'll go straight back down because of Warnock. When he was with us he was way too negative away from home in the Premiership, our away form was the reason we went down.

Doubt this is a good thing. Ecclestone, whilst rich, looks like the kind of impatient owner no club wants. However, with his team top of the table there's not going to be much he can complain about at the minute.

So long as the club progresses financially and in the league, they should have a decent budget for Warnock/whoever is in charge. Whether or not they are promoted.

This doesn't really affect anything, Bernie was already on the board there, the less power Flavio has the better really.

Yep it shouldn't change much, at least in the short term. I remember some article on ESPN that when Palace get to the Prem then they will invest heavily to eventually compete at the top end of the premier league.
