Chris Ramsey named QPR head coach on a permanent basis

Chris Ramsey has been appointed Head Coach at newly relegated QPR. He has signed a three year contract at Loftus Road until the summer of 2018.
 
Ramsey took over in a temporary capacity after Harry Redknapp resigned in February, with the club in the relegation zone.
 
commenting on the decision, chairman Tony Fernandes said: “When Chris took over the role we were already in a very difficult position, yet despite our  relegation, we – as a board – have been impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail he has demonstrated since becoming Head Coach."
 
“This is a new start for us and one I am confident Chris will relish playing a major part in.”
 
Speaking to QPR's webiste, Ramsey said “This is a fantastic opportunity for me and one I am tremendously excited about."
 
“I enjoyed my time in temporary charge, despite the way the season panned out, and now I’m looking forward to the challenge of helping rebuild this club over the coming years.
 
“I am fully aware of what this club means to its supporters and I intend to do everything possible to help build a QPR team they can be proud of.”  
 
During his time at the club Ramsey won three of his fourteen league games, including last weekends win at home to Newcastle.
