LMFAO To be fair to Dyer......plagued with injuries for years....but to be fair to QPR it had to be done. I wish him well......oh and thx for the goal
In all honesty I liked Dyer, gave his all every time he put the colours on. Can't ask for more. And to be fair to his legs, when they worked he seemed to have a lot more control over them than some of our favourite players do. Well taken goal against WBA and thanks for your efforts Keiron, best of luck, got a feeling you will make a half decent coach.
Not sorry to see him go at all, spent all his time in the treatment room and never understood why we signed him in the first place. Terrible signing - goodbye.
just a thought. Has Dyer been sacrificed to create a space in the 25 because we can't sell any of the dead wood? He would be the cheapest to get rid of because of clause in his contract. It makes me wonder if the likes of Bosingwa have it in their contracts that they must be in the first team squad. So, if he won't go or nobody wants him (because he is "injured") ... and Harry won't play him ... somebody else must go in order that Harry can bring in a replacement.
Queens Park Rangers have released Kieron Dyer only days after the midfielder scored his first goal for the club. The 34-year-old, who won 33 England caps between 1999 and 2007, joined Rangers in July 2011 following his release by West Ham United. Dyer, whose career has been beset by injury, made only eight appearances in all competitions for the club, who on Tuesday opted to activate the release clause in his contract despite his goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw with West Brom in the third round of the FA Cup. "I'd like to thank Kieron for his services to QPR," the manager Harry Redknapp said. "If he can stay clear of injuries I'm sure there's clubs out there that will offer him the chance to play football. He wasn't in my plans and I think he's got something to offer someone, so we wish him all the best." Ryan Nelsen, meanwhile, is also likely to leave to take over as the manager of Toronto FC in Major League Soccer. The 35-year-old New Zealander has been one of QPR's few shining lights this season, having joined in June following spells at Blackburn and Tottenham. Nelsen has made 21 appearances in all competitions but is in Toronto to discuss the vacant post, having been granted a few days off training by Redknapp. It is unclear whether the job in Canada would also see him make a playing a return to MLS, having made his name there during a four-year spell with DC United. The Washington club were another linked with Nelsen, who has reportedly been swayed to Toronto by their president and general manager Kevin Payne – an executive at DC United when he played there. Nelsen's departure would be a huge blow for QPR, who have won only two of their 21 Premier League games. Redknapp signed him this time last year, when he was the Spurs manager, and has regularly highlighted his significant role at Loftus Road. "Nelsen is very important to us, a fantastic leader, a top player," Redknapp said after the 1-1 FA Cup draw with West Bromwich. "He has been offered a job in America and I think there is every chance he might want to go. "He wants to be a manager and it is a chance for him to manage a club. He has been fantastic. I took him to Tottenham last year from Blackburn. He's one of the best pros I've ever met in my life, a fantastic player, a great trainer. He is a massive part of your team. To lose him would be a massive blow for us."
Terrible decision to sign him in the first place. Was one of my favourite players in the prem when fit, probklem is that aint often enough. Correct decision by HR Good luck KD. You got loads of stick from plenty on these boards when you signed and when you did play you were class. Sadly not often enough!
Strange in it - Dyer finally comes good and we let him go! He'll probably excell for a few seasons now at a good PL Club..
Balsy move from Harry. Given our situation and with Nelsen possibly on the way and with Tottenham looming, a really balsy move. I think this must mean some good news on the way before Saturday. What time is the deadline for Friday in order to be eligible for Saturday? Noon??
A season and a 1/2: ________________________ Bolton home (4 mins) Walsall home (20 mins as a sub) Man City away (20 mins as a sub) Spurs away 90 mins Reading home (about 70 minutes) Man Utd away 90 minutes West brom home 90 minutes
No mate, he hasnt come good...just finished one good goal..thats all. prob not available for next 900million games because of shins, birds or bad dress sense....move on !
I'm just little bit surprised we're offloading players faster than we're buying them. Here comes the Saturday we wont be able to put together 11 players for the game
Surprised as well...he obviously did enough to get into the FA cup game, so can only assume Harry agreed to play him to give him a chance to remind other potential clubs what he can do...why bother playing him otherwise...to rest others? If so, who gets to play in the replay in his place, assuming he still wants to rest players from our first 11? Thought he played well against WBA so in some respects harsh, but with all the injuries he is just not someone you can rely on for a place in the 25 in the Prem, so better for him and us if he was to leave me thinks. Wish him well though! Hope he gets another gig somewhere soon.
