QPR Captain Gareth Ainsworth Welcomes Dowie Appointment

-
QPR Captain is the latest QPR Player to praise the appointment of Iain Dowie (as if..!). A new manager is of course a challenge for every player. But for Ainsworth who was also serving as an assistant to De Canio and was set to have a more formal role, the new appointment has to open up questions as his playing career is presumably drawing to a close.


QPR Official Site - 'A GREAT APPOINTMENT'
Gareth Ainsworth believes the appointment of Iain Dowie as First Team Coach is 'fantastic' news for Queens Park Rangers Football Club.

Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, the R's Club Captain expressed his delight at the arrival of the former Crystal Palace and Coventry City boss.

"It's a great appointment - fantastic news for the Football Club," he said.

"Iain is a very passionate man, who demands 110 per-cent from his players and staff.

"He is very methodical in his approach and is a forward-thinking Manager.

"His organisational skills and work ethic are exceptional and I'm really looking forward to working under him."

Ainsworth, who is currently working towards his UEFA B licence during a week-long course at Cobham, added: "We've had a taste of the continental Manager and we learnt a lot from Luigi and his staff. But I think an English Manager, who is proven at this level, will prove to be the right man to get us back to where we - as players and supporters of this Club - want to be." QPR Official Site
