QPR chief Beard admits Loftus Road move on agenda

QPR chief Philip Beard admits moving away from Loftus Road is on the agenda.

Beard revealed a move away from Loftus Road to another part of Shepherd's Bush could be in the pipeline.

"Loftus Road has a hell of an atmosphere when there is a game on but we're constrained by the fact we have under 20,000 seats in the stadium," he said.

"So if we are serious potentially about the long-term growth of the club then I think we have to be serious about looking at what I call a new football stadium as part of a hub of a wider entertainment destination.

"Literally down the road from us you have Westfield [shopping centre] and you've got great transport facilities.

"If we can grow our fanbase, both homegrown and internationally, then I hope the future is very bright for the club."
