Wouldn''t be the difference in keeping us up.[/quote] Has been played on the wing a lot hence less goals than he should have.

Move Klose 303 Posted August 31, 2012 I would say good winger, not a striker. one of the very few at QPR who actualy does care and isn''t there to pick up £50,000 a week to sit on the bench, Rob Green, SWP, Andy Johnson, Ryan Nelsen etc etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 I have a feeling we will sign more than one player today. No actual knowledge of any deals. Just a feeling.Clive Platt & Sibierski anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rolf Harris 31 Posted August 31, 2012 [quote user="SuperZakWhitbread"]Does anyone actually think James Nursey is in the know as much as he likes to think he is ?He actually speaks to Hughton and players face to face, so id gather he''s one of the better sources [/quote] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 If we weren''t in the hunt for anyone today, you''d think the club would be kind enough to tell us our business is over, wouldn''t you? To save our usual disappointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,221 Posted August 31, 2012 Well, Hughton kind of spelled it out in the story on the home page.Basically, we are in for a player (or maybe more than one) but it will only come off if the deal suits both clubs. I like the fact with McNally in charge we won''t get hold to ransom over deals! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 If Hughton and McNally are not involved in any player discussions, surely it would be kind to us to say "And Alex Tettey was our final signing of this window" or something. Just so I don''t have to continually press refresh over and over again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted August 31, 2012 Ha Clive Platt i remember that, was really hoping that didn''t happen, he''s at Northampton now. I think we signed Wilbraham instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

York Canary 28 Posted August 31, 2012 Che''s right hand man "Queens Park Rangers2010–11[33]2592011–12317Not bad for a winger and 7 premier league goals from the wing is about the same as Pilks. Up front with Holt he would likely get more and even from the wing he''d probably get more because he''d be with a better club/team;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 Haha sorry. Forgot about Bunn. I''ve found that''s an easy thing to do :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_Bones 441 Posted August 31, 2012 [quote user="York Canary"]I heard its Jamie Mackie.[/quote]Wouldn''t have been my first choice, but definitely a much better option than CMS and a player who at least has prem experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 What I can''t make out is we have no real concrete rumours either. Like Bennett in the last window, our signing(s) will come out of the blue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 We can only hope, mate. Letting another striker go makes me think we are in the market for a couple of players. A hunch I had earlier today. With no concrete knowledge, granted. Just a hunch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyboy 0 Posted August 31, 2012 so people would be happy for us to sign sicknote Owen but not Fraser Campbell because of his injuries in the past? No logic to that at all!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 274 Posted August 31, 2012 other than owen has not been injured for the last 18 months, but kept out of a half decent manure side by better strikers. We are all clueless on whats happening - but morison being offered suggests someone decent being lined up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 Surely Morison being offered for loan, or allowed to leave for loan means we are lining up a couple of signings? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_Bones 441 Posted August 31, 2012 [quote user="ZippersLeftFoot"]other than owen has not been injured for the last 18 months, but kept out of a half decent manure side by better strikers.[/quote]This.And the fact that Owen was an international class striker who''s scored goals for fun at virtually every club he''s been at, whereas Campbell wasn''t good enough to displace players like Macheda and Bebe from Man Utd''s thinking, and why he only cost Sunderland a relatively low 3.5 million (rising to 6 if he ever performs or even plays more than a game a year), for a player of such class...Maybe it''s Campbell''s hugely impressive goal every 9.4 games for Sunderland that''s impressing some fans......

Baldyboy 0 Posted August 31, 2012 disagree matey, Owen was out for at least FOUR months last season with an injury!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 274 Posted August 31, 2012 ps - does not mean that I think signing owen is my preference, he would represent a gamble, but less so than some names suggested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted August 31, 2012 Something is stopping Owen from going to Stoke. They''ve made many offers to him. If we are in the hunt for him (which I doubt) then no rush to complete deal today. He''s a free agent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fife Canary 0 Posted August 31, 2012 James Nursery has just tweeted that Hughton does like the look of Cameron Jerome but apparently has someone else lined up. He doesn''t know who though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
