Sam Hamman for QPR?

-
[Seems like just Daily Mail speculation maybe based on the fact that Sam Hammam was at Saturday's game. Where the name of Ron Noades comes from in this story is not known.]

"....And in takeover action you probably have no interest in, former Crystal Palace owner Ron Noades wants to buy QPR, but so does former Cardiff owner Sam Hammam, while a mysterious 'unnamed American consortium' want to buy Millwall. Should we tell them or will you?" Guardian

Is Sam the Man To Rescue QPR?

Football tycoon Sam Hammam’s presence at Loftus Road last Saturday has increased speculation that he is preparing a bid to take over crisis-hit Queens Park Rangers.

Hammam, who is understood to have made more than £20million when he sold Wimbledon to a Norwegian partnership in 1997, has recently relinquished control of Cardiff City, allowing him to pursue other football interests.

And Hammam, who is known to be missing day-to-day involvement in professional football, would find it far easier to commute from his St John’s Wood home to Shepherd’s Bush than the Welsh capital.

Former Crystal Palace owner Ron Noades is also understood to be involved in the QPR takeover talks. He and Hammam have been close friends since Wimbledon and Palace shared Selhurst Park.

While Hammam’s wealth is a matter of some speculation, Noades is seriously cash rich after selling Palace to Mark Goldberg for even more than Sam got for Wimbledon. Noades retained ownership of Selhurst Park, which was sold recently to Tottenham director Paul Kemsley.

QPR chairman Gianni Palladini is sure to sell if the offer is right and Hammam and Noades are the type of operators who could restore some stability at Loftus Road. Taking over the debts and the mortgage on the ground would cost around £20m. Mail
