    why are the guys in charge not making qpr a force to be taken serious, i am honestly not a wum but i cant get my head around qpr being up there when it comes to being the riches club in the land that even the £90 + million all three of us promoted teams will get is small change to your owners. it just dont make sense, they could if they wanted to go into the transfer market and get players that us and norwich can only dream about and most of the current crop of premiership teams.......i cant understand and probably never will... i wish you the best of luck anyway as i feel you deserve better at the end of the day..

    We deserve better than what exactly?

    We're all frustrated at our current lack of transfer activity and hike in Season Ticket prices, but other than that we're in good shape and in excellent financial shape moving this club forwards.

    Spending £100m on players would only cripple this club in the long term, no-one wants to see that. We have rich owners but they are exactly that RICH OWNERS. The club itself is not loaded and shouldn't be thought of being so.

    Jog on ;)

    Again, we have an idiot from another board on here trying to rise people up but again, its difficult to argue with anything he's said (Apart from the smallest Club thing, we're at least as big as Swansea and Wigan).

    How can you say Swansea are in a worse position, yes dorus left us which is a shame, but has been replaced! Yes Pratley left us, but he was a bit part player for us all season, he would have played a part next season if he stayed, warming the bench the same as last season!

    We have signed 3 players and 2 left us together with a few others who were not good enough to put it bluntly, but the team is better, there is no way on earth you will get Williams at that price!

    To be honest I was amazed that you found anything on that website, it's a complete shambles of a site since the supposed upgrade that they done ;)

    You QPR fans are more deluded than I thought, ok we have signed more players than you but your board are about to let your manager go and your top player. Williams is far better than any of your defenders especially ****tu!

    With the signings Swansea have made I'd say we are about equal as it stands given we finished eight points ahead last season. Whether we sign Williams or not (I'd say he's marginally better than Connolly) we'll both be in the relegation scrap and are both at least a couple of quality signings from having a squad capable of equalling the standard dross in the lower half of the table. I wouldn't be surprised at all if all three of the promoted sides went back down.

    I'd be amazed if the Swans finished above us this season, even if we bring no-one in. At the very least we are resilient and strong, Swans are proper flakey. 4-0 at Loftus Road? Jokers. ;)

    So second best defence in the league and we are flakey <laugh> and going on a freak result at your place in January hardly tells the whole story does it ? Williams played a huge part of our landing up third, offering £2m for him is a joke we turned that down in January transfer window.

    Swansea City bid for Newcastle United's Wayne Routledge

    Wayne Routledge Routledge helped Queens Park Rangers to the Championship title last season

    Swansea City have made a bid of around £1.5m for Newcastle United midfielder Wayne Routledge.

    "We have expressed an interest in Routledge and are in discussions with Newcastle," a Swansea spokesman told BBC Wales Sport.

    Routledge spent the second half of last season on loan at Queens Park Rangers but has failed to agree personal terms on a permanent return to Loftus Road.

    Swansea also face competition from Nottingham Forest for the 26-year-old.

    Routledge was loaned to QPR in January - only a year after leaving Loftus Road to join Newcastle.

    He scored five goals in 20 appearances as he played a significant part in Rangers' march towards the Championship title last season.

    More to follow.

    Swansea City have made a bid of around £1.5m for Newcastle United midfielder Wayne Routledge.

    "We have expressed an interest in Routledge and are in discussions with Newcastle," a Swansea spokesman told BBC Wales Sport.

    Routledge spent the second half of last season on loan at Queens Park Rangers but has failed to agree personal terms on a permanent return to Loftus Road.

    Swansea also face competition from Nottingham Forest for the 26-year-old.

    And Cardiff City, who had Routledge on loan for a month on loan in the 2008-09 season, have also been linked with making a move for the former England Under-21 international.

    Routledge was loaned to QPR in January - only a year after leaving Loftus Road to join Newcastle for an undisclosed fee.

    He scored five goals in 20 appearances as he played a significant part in Rangers' march towards the Championship title last season.

    After starting his career at Crystal Palace, Routledge moved to Tottenham Hotspur for £1.25m in 2005 but made only five appearances in three and a half seasons at White Hart Lane.

    Aston Villa also paid £1.25m for his services in 2008 but he was sold to QPR a year later for £600,000 after failing to make a league start.

    Swansea, who have had a £2m bid rejected for Fulham goalkeeper David Stockdale, have been trying to fend off Newcastle's interest in Neil Taylor since the end of last season.

    The Magpies have made a £1m-plus bid for the 22-year-old Wales left-back but newly-promoted Swansea are determined to keep hold of their man.
