I’d missed the news of Ainsworth to QPR

Weaver at Harrogate being in op of the list is a bit of a “false position”
I know they are a league club now but would he still be in the role if they had been a league club since 2009?

Weaver is in a very privileged position - his dad owns the club. It's false in that he spent a lot of that time as a non-league manager but he has to be there.

Busy week - Gracia in at Leeds, Ainsworth Wycombe to QPR, Bloomfield Colchester to Wycombe, Curle sacked at Hartlepool.

Also did not see Ainsworth move, after all these years. QPR only down the road, so ideal for him. A wrench, no doubt. Haircut needed?

Ainsworth has come out and said it's his dream job or words to that effect, but it begs the question as to why he didn't dream about it on the last two occasions it came up, or any of the other umpteen times since he took up the job at Wycombe.

Furthermore he's dumped Wycombe in it in the middle of a promotion campaign that's not going too badly

Anyone any idea? It's got to be money hasn't it?

He’s an ex QPR player. Club he played most games for

He’s very popular at QPR but I was beginning to think his ship had sailed for that job. He’s been caretaker manager there twice before he went to Wycombe.
