Tony Fernandes took to Twitter to answer criticism from QPR fans in the wake of the FA Cup humiliation at home to MK Dons – and again suggested he would be prepared to step down if things do not improve.
Bottom of the table despite massive spending since a Fernandes-led group took control at Loftus Road, Rangers’ season took another turn for the worse when they were thrashed by League One opposition.
And the chairman tweeted: “Many fans attacking me. Doing our best. As I said we won’t stop trying. As I have said many times I take all responsibility and will face the music.
“Always spirit up. If can’t fix it I will be first to go.”
Fernandes indicated after his controversial sacking of Neil Warnock and appointment of Mark Hughes that he would quit if the change did not work.
Meanwhile, West Brom forward Peter Odemwingie has tweeted a number of comments as he continues to show his frustration at not being allowed to leave for QPR.
They include: “Best compliment I have ever received in my (career) as a player. manager like HR spending to bring me for mission “impossible”.”
He also wrote: “”I ask club what they think ? Answer – not now. Maybe summer. I ask- or is it tactics to get more money? Answer- we have enough now there is no prise (price) for you. We need you.
“I say ok. What’s the prise for summer ? We will tell you after the window closes.
“I say – I have served the club well and deserve at least to have a prise now so I can plan my probably last move in England.
“Don’t want another summer window not knowing what will happen cos now I ll have to move my little son elsewhere. after all I have contributed to the clubs success last two seasons I hoped to at least get a low prise. Answer- talk later.
“Last season January window is when I should have handed in transfer request. Was one foot in Rubin Kazan – not for sale. Fulham. Not for sale. Newcastle. Not for sale. Wigan. Not for sale.
“Loyalty left 70 percent. the rest they stole out of my pocket thinking I was keeping money in there.”
