Let's hope so, Soops. These protracted transfer sagas can get quite tiresome, can't they? As I said on an earlier thread, I can deal with Remy not staying, or (say) Caulker not coming, but rather like Cleese's headmaster in 'Clockwise' it's the hope that's killing.
No direct link confirming the medical on here, Aussie, but you might find this link useful for all thing QPR... http://www.newsnow.co.uk/h/Sport/Football/Premier League/QPR
Ian Abrahams (Moose) @BroadcastMoose · 13m It's my understanding Steven Caulker will have a medical at @QPRFC today ahead of his proposed move from Cardiff

As far as transfers go, don't you think this is quite normal? We've been used to last minute ones or desperate oldie signings that go through straight away. But for desirable, young players, I think this is quite normal.
Cardiffâs Caulker set for medical at QPR By talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) | Tuesday, July 22, 2014 Cardiff defender Steven Caulker set for medical at QPR on Tuesday Live on talkSPORT 17/08 QPR 02:00 HUL Preview .

If he joins are we allowed to like him, or will he always be tainted by not joining us immediately we asked without thinking and seeing what else may be available?
I don't know about normal, after agreeing a price with Cardiff 3weeks ago not sure many teams would have let this drag on this time, sure caulker has got decide over his future & eventually well hopefully decides its us, so much for mirror journalist then.
GREAT NEWS! I really hope he signs. With Caulker I think that we will have a strong and reliable defense. With that box ticked off, we now need to add quality, creativity, depth and options outfield and in attack, as at the day we need to also score some goals to win matches.
No sure about the timescale involved Jeff but it seems to me that Hoilett's transfer took an age too, and I find myself asking was it worth it, although that assist was priceless
I cannot answer that until I see what the herd decides...and then I will make my own mind up to go along with the herd. baaa
You do let it drag on a bit if you really want the player. If, however, you rush it or give the player a deadline/ultimatum and then end up losing him, you find yourself having to make hasty, poor, costly signings at the last minute just to get someone through the door. Been there - done that.
