HATCHET MAN/Daily Mail : QPR would be well shot of meddling know-it-all Briatore
- Flavio Briatore insists he knows what he is doing at QPR because he is from 'the sport business', but picking racing drivers and a team of footballers is not quite the same thing.
- If he really was a man who understood sport, the idea of telling his manager who to pick should be abhorrent, yet the Rangers chairman suggests that is common practice.
- When asked if there was any truth in the rumour that Iain Dowie resigned when Briatore presented him with a list of players to pick against Reading last month, the Italian replied: 'It was a normal conversation. The coach is important but the money is coming from us.'
- Briatore is on his fourth manager in less than a year at Loftus Road and his team are 12 points adrift of the Championship leaders so maybe the club would be better off with someone who doesn't think he knows it all." Daily Mail
