Hi ladies / gents, looking for your experience to aid me in my first real FM2013 decision;
Currently in my 6th Season, chose to start in the Blue Bet Premier with Luton Town, results have surpassed expectations:
1st Season - 9th Blue Bet Premier
2nd Season - 1st Blue Bet Premier
3rd Season - 5th Npower League 2 (Promoted Via play-offs)
4th Season - 3rd Npower League 1 (Lost the play-off final :'()
5th Season - 1st Npower League 1
Which brings us up to the present, my maiden debut in the Championship:

Currently sitting comfortably above the media predictions of 23rd place, that's for sure!
Now...the dilemma...I've been approached before, but the offers havn't been good enough for me to pause for thought..until:

Yeah yeah i know..might not look that great to some of you pro's! but to put this in perspective my current wage budget sits at 85k p/w - with a transfer kitty of 360k...
To add insult to injury, QPR are offering me a £17K per week wage. I currently earn £2.4K at Luton... If this were a real world decision - that alone would seal the deal!!
So, my basic goal in this, my first ever Football Manager save is to become disgustingly successful, rich and adored.
Who'se gonna help me get there quicker? Luton, who have risen quickly under my stewardship, but lack financial clout and suffer from sub standard facilities (despite my persistant board pestering!)
Or QPR - who have a stronger squad, better facilities....however:
They are already 17 points behind my weaker squad after 18 games and - i'm not whether this is a worry or a bonus...it seems most of the players contracts expire at the end of this season...
Thoughts and comments appreciated!
Squad depths added fyi:
