QPR finance chief

Shocked they have a finance chief, I thought they just throw money at everything and say fix it

At what point will she learn that she is working with a tighter budget than she had in the championship

Sums it up nicely !

It's actually quite impressive that 2 of the biggest leaders at the club will be women now, given how male-dominated football, and sports in general, are. Gives us yet another thing to be proud about as Spurs supporters.

Hmmm QPR FInance Manager?

QPR actually tried to managed their finance ?

 

[JerryGarcia]

If she can balance Redknapp's books she must be good at her job, a leader in her field.

 

[yankspurs]

A QPR finance chief coming to Spurs? Oh lord. 2 huuuuugely conflicting philosophies. Ohh i'd love to be a fly on that wall when the board meet....btw, finance person? At QPR? Really?

 

[Strikeb4ck]

She'll resign within a week of meeting Levy.

They are getting a £50m fine for over spending. Was that on her CV?

No danger of Levy letting that happen.

Yep. Very pleasing, although...

...'QPR finance manager' is a bit like being 'Titanic safety officer'.

You don't think Levy had anything to do with her appointment?

Agree with you on this. Having said that it could have been worse, it could have been H. Redknapp

If it works.

Let's not forget Karen Brady giving ladies in football a bad name.

dont you think - they may have already met?

Why shouldn't it work?

 

[Mr Pink]

Hmmm...clearly a second choice, Southampton obviously had enough though.

It's really infuriating that there's still so few women involved at the top that they can't just be judged on their own merits - every single female figure seems to be held up an example to applaud or slate a whole gender.

ETA: That's not me attacking you by the way, just a general observation.

My point was exactly that, that if it goes wrong somehow, she'll end up getting the flack.
