Summer Transfer Thread

First new person we have been linked with in over a week... Alex Baptiste from Boro. Age 31, was with Holloway at Blackpool of course.

It just goes to show that the club is working hard behind the scenes and doing a good job of keeping things quiet.

I spoke to a QPR mate on Saturday night in the pub
I said where do you think we will end up this season
He said 23rd and I thought I was the only pessimist
Yes we played superb on Saturday and looked a nice tidy unit who I hope we can play like that every week,freeman looked superb and Washington had a swagger about him,the lad just needs some confidence and he will bag lots of goals hopefully
It's only the first game and we need not to get too excited we started well last season,we then have our usual early league cup exit and start to look like a pub team again
We need to try and win tomorrow and carry on the momentum if we can the next few games and go on from there
We need luck with injuries and suspensions too and we could be the surprise team this season
How we respond after our first defeat is the most important thing,I was surprised at how we controlled a good reading side from start to finish.

Pleas GOD let it be true.

Yup Andy Yiadom looks to be heading in the wrong direction if he wanted to get back to his footballing roots.... Real shame as looked very good!

Another rumour started though relating to 27 year old Gohi Cyriac, an Ivory Coast international who was on loan with Fulham last season. I am not really sure of his worth, especially as he is only 1.75m tall which is short for a striker, but it could equally be another loan by Ostende to another Championship club with QPR using him as a sub. Of course this begs the question what we have JET for.....

Looks like the only way we are going  to get a new striker is from a loan deal. It appears that the budget restrictions around FFP will stop us buying anyone on a permanent deal. I suppose that the reported £40k/week that we pay Steven Caulker is probably a major factor.
