69 DAYS UNTIL QPR DIES! QUEENS PARK RANGERS FANS TO PROTEST AT LOFTUS ROAD THIS SATURDAY

The Football League has stated that if QPR are not out of Administration by 31 May, the club will not be given fixtures for next season. This will be the end for the team, the club, and its fans.

To protest at this situation and the mismanagement of chairman Chris Wright, QPR fans are to stage a mass protest outside Loftus Road Stadium following this Saturday's home match against Peterborough (23 March). By this point, there will be 69 DAYS left until QPR die. Chairman Wright had indicated he would be willing to compromise on the debt he is owed by the club and its parent company Loftus Road plc. But, in a letter sent on Monday withdrawing his group1s bid for QPR, Harold Winton stated that: "It appears that you may have had second thoughts over this matter, and are now seeking payment in full."

And so, over a year after going into administration, QPR is STILL being driven into extinction by the greed of one man.

WE, THE FANS OF QPR, CALL ON CHRIS WRIGHT TO DROP THE DEBT AND ANNOUNCE OUR PROTEST AGAINST HIS GREED AND MISMANAGEMENT WE WILL ASSEMBLE IN SOUTH AFRICA ROAD IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING SATURDAY1S MATCH. UNITED WE STAND IN SAVING OUR QUEENS PARK RANGERS
