When I saw the headline, I thought we were engaging a new legal practice. ( Ream And Gayle and Konchesky) I'm all for more strikers & defenders.
Ream, never heard of him so no comment. Gayle for £10m! I'd say £3m at the most. Konchesky, he will put a shift in. I just wish we'd signed him 10 years ago.

We got him Well done all...as they say one under the radar. A CD now...and if Phillips and Austin stay .....well set
That is one very good signing. Experience in abundance, important with all the new young players in the squad. #balance
Why is £10 million for Gayle to much? Palace paid £6 million for him, brining him from League One. And he has proved during his two seasons in the Premier League that he can score goals at the top level. If Charlie is worth £15m with one year left on his contract I don't see why Gayle isn't worth close to £10m.
If you're using the basis of proven goalscorer etc in comparison to Austin then yes, £10mil would seem fair. However, as i'm sure Damage would let you know in far greater depth, Palace want him off their books as he is surplus to requirements so naturally there is a going to be money knocked off his value. I would take him for £5-6mil
oh well looks like the The Mail got it wrong! "Former Tottenham and Leicester defender Paul Konchesky is close to joining Championship newcomers Bristol City" Welcome to QPR Paul!!
Intelligent bit of business. Always been a committed pro (sometimes over committed) should add some bite if his legs haven't gone.
Just been reading about Konchesky on Wiki and it seems he's not been that great at his previous clubs. On the Leicester board they all seem happy to see the back of him. Not sure this is such a great signing.
He was surplus to us this year so happy to offset some of his wages, he'll give 100% and is more than capable of championship football, just keep him out of your penalty area and your golden, he may even score 1 or 2 crackers for you this year!
