BBC -Rangers name three new directors

Three legal experts have joined the QPR board as non-executive directors.

Property lawyers Jason Kallis and Kevin Steele have been rewarded for unpaid work on behalf of the club along with barrister Nick De Marco.

"These people have been supporting QPR for much longer than me and they are the future of the club," said Rangers chairman Gianni Paladini.

"I hope they'll be involved with Queens Park Rangers long after me. Their expertise is great for us."

Kallis said: "Knowing what the club's been through, I know there's bound to be scepticism whenever anyone joins the board, but myself and Kevin are QPR through and through."

De Marco has been acting as a legal advisor at Loftus Road for some time and has been a staunch supporter of the board.

Paladini and Monaco-based club owner Antonio Caliendo have been viewed with suspicion by some fans.

But De Marco said: "I've seen at first hand the commitment Gianni and the Monaco investors put in.

"The financial position of the club is better that it has been for quite a few years.

"We've been in a perilous position and would have been in administration were it not for the Monaco investment." BBC
