The FA fear that QPR will exercise the right to either have their disciplinary hearing on Tuesday delayed or abandoned completely.
QPR would have to make an application to the independent Regulatory Commission in the next 24 hours, citing claims that the club have already been found guilty before any defence evidence has been submitted.
QPR have been charged with seven breaches of regulations relating to third-party ownership and agents concerning Argentinean midfielder *Alejandro Faurlin.
Yet reports last week, quoting FA sources, claimed the evidence against QPR was damning and they could face a 15-point deduction and be forced to drop down from automatic promotion into the play-offs.
Although the FA have moved swiftly to distance themselves from these reports, Rangers are within their rights to claim there case has been tarnished and as a result they are unlikely to get a fair hearing.
Any significant delay in the hearing would effectively rule out QPR being docked points that would prevent them from securing automatic promotion.
The club claimed via their own website that they paid £3.5 million for Faurlin in 2009. The truth is they merely made a deferred payment to agents who owned the player's economic rights of around £600,000.
Faurlin was also signed prior to the introduction of new regulations regarding third party ownership and QPR were transparent about the deal with both the Football League and the FA and provided documentation that there would be no third party influence.
And when they did buy out the rights to the player a year later they informed the Football League and paid the money through the FA.
The FA decided to investigate the deal when QPR boasted of paying £3.5 million and sent independent lawyers into the club in January of this year.
At worst it appears QPR used a licensed agent, but who wasn't registered with the FA, and may be guilty of a clerical error.
And it seems unlikely that if the case is eventually heard they are more likely to receive a slap on the wrist and substantial fine.

+ THe bookies are paying out on Champions and Promotion. Ive got my winningsThanks William Hill
Bet Fred also paid out on Man U winning the title last week....possibly fatal error.
Just had a wee bet on Torres 1-0 for next Sunday. As a Liverpool fan i would love this to occur
Things are also looking good for 5th spot for us now, all comes down to the big game against Tottenham penultimate game of the season.Bet Fred also paid out on Man U winning the title last week....possibly fatal error.

i got a text saying fred was paying out after last weekend. i don't think the bookies are silly enough not to have the payouts hedged - they probably layed united themselves with minimal risk or lumped on chelsea.
of course, i was a bit of a fanny when i decided not to back chelsea at 16/1 a few months ago.

Is this the statute and how it is applied?
Sun / 13 pointer story could be an epic fail.
If they or someone has leaked it from within, then QPR will be in the clear.
If they just made it up - well no suprises, but lets see them (the paper) admit it.
I don't want to sound like i'm being biased but if QPR are found guilty then the Club should be stripped of the nPower Championship Title 2010/11. Also next Saturdays clash against the Leeds should be decided as a final Play Off decider between both Clubs
Ofwhich hopefully Warnock will for once be silenced as the Whites will win at Loftus Road
thus claiming the 6th and final P'O Place. From a Leeds United Supporter "Marching on Together" for over 40yrs

Nope.
http://www.thefa.com/thefa/~/media/...Investment - FA Regulations JUNE 09 FINAL.pdf
If, as has been alledged they falseified the paperwork at the time, they could be in the ****.
Admin issue
in all honesty if you look at the facts the FA santioned him to play the issue is with the admin on the paperwork ( which will be proved to be a genuine mistake) and despite what some papers say there where NO rules on third party ownership in the football league at the time and when they where introduced in the JULY the FL gave us the chance to buy out the contract which we did. The problem with the paperwork is was we used a FIFA approved agent who was not registered to the FA at the time. THis is the same agent who now looks after GB at Spurs.
QPR actualy went to the FL about the whole issue when his contrwct was renewed in September.
All a storm in a teacup and the sun article was just because it was a slow newsday and didnht have anything in the actual article ( apart from the GUILTY and FA insider bit) that had not been reported before.
To top it off this was 2 seasons ago so it has had no advantage for us this season and well Champions of the football league and despite it beingt a Neil Warnock team we have played some damm good football and have built a very consistent, solid championship team.
Dave 1 - You will win Saturday because i think theres a party going on, shame you guys cant make the play offs... Reading will be my bet to be the other team to go up.
You only have to look at our goal diffrence to see where are the deserved Champions and when we get the outcome Friday ( think because of the sun article our lawyers are trying to get the case thrwonb out before it is heard this morning)
Anyway we will have the best lawyers in the land on the case and i wont be losing no sleep over it. QPR NPC CHAMPIONS 2010 / 2011

Thin on legal detail and based upon 'it won't be fair' ' we deserve to win the league' and the worst of the worst 'our legal team is great'.
More convinced than ever you are guilty!

The point being that it was sanctioned based on the information in the paperwork.
I'm sorry but don't think you'll find "it was a geniune admin error" tends to work in these cases.
We'll wait and see...
PS wasn't one of your chairmen the one who ordered his driver to crash (ie cheat) in that formula 1 race???

meanwhile, the madrid-barca war of words is getting dirtier and dirtier
re: busquets 'racism' incident - am going to reserve judgement until I have seen some evidence - every time I open a link it seems to have been taken down
but Madrid getting on any kind of racism high horse is beyond laughable

am actually wondering if Madrid will even play their first 11 - I wouldn't put it past mourinho (karanka tonight?) to just send their youth team out in an act of defiance. Their strategy seems to be not only to refuse to recognise the legitimacy of Barca's win but also to get everybody else to question it too! and ultimately to taint the eventual trophy. Not sure this strategy is working though - it's interesting how few managers have been coming out in support of Mourinho..
The newspapers that support both sides are slinging dirt along with both clubs. This is getting blown out of proportion. Real Madrid and Barcelona both need to give it a rest. This is not the first match with diving, kicking, and acting
. I just say lets play football. Come on Real Madrid

It's not clear but it does seem partcularly dodgy with the way he's covering his mouth to everyone but the other fella.
I'm just wondering why it taken the press so long to pick up on it when it was all over the web days ago???
and is Marca actually linked to Real? Thought it was just like a sports paper in general. It was them who picked it up first not Real.
