    He's in demand isn't he? Not bad for a fat lad who definitely wouldn't be able to cut it in the championship!

    Mega offer, he could leave. In the real world, no chance.

    I personally believe that Grant Holt will never leave us by his own free will. He's found his 'home' with us, nuff said

    if you gave holt the option, i bet he'd be more likely to go to fulham than rangers!

    however, the chances of a move to fulham are a big fat zero

    Bad luck Koo Pee Arr if they're paying him 90k a week <doh>

    Yet another unbelievably bad signing from them if you ask me, as decent as he is (and decent is about as far as I'd go nowadays) he is one of the most injury prone strikers going, and at the age he is now that's only going to get worse.

    it can only be put down to pure desperation. it can't be good planning because none of these players look like they will compliment each other at all

    Well, they need to do something to try and get them out of the bottom 5.
    TF has the money and the ego to believe everything he touches turns to gold, despite trying to do the same in August but the fact all these signings are coming in the last week of the transfer window (and perhaps most of them on the last day) does not inspire confidence that they do know what or who they want, just want to try and get something better to show the fans they are trying.

    Me from the 'QPR' thread.


    Managed to lose what I was going to say but will try again.

    Now that QPR have money they have to pay over the odds for all these players. It is a big mistake on QPR's part to give him a 5 year contract. A club in QPR's position should only be giving 2 year contracts at the most, 3 years at a stretch. They will have a huge problem should they get relegated and players like Onuoha want to leave.

    The club is only thinking short term and only long term, based on the fact that they are certain they will stay up. Also, it doesn't really look like QPR are after raw quality. Their decisions appear to be based on which club they are at and how much they are earning.

    Big players, big transfer fees and big wages don't always help. Just look at Torres.

    Ferdinand, Wright-Phillips and Bothroyd seem like big players but they haven't really done anything special and didn't really set the team alight at their previous clubs. Haven't QPR learnt from them?

    I would rather have a young and ambitious player like Howson who is earning a maximum of £15k a week and his only motive was to play in the Premier League (and find somewhere to fish) instead of a player like Zamora who wants £90k a week, 6 times more than Howson, a player who is past it and perhaps isn't even Premier League quality.

    QPR should look at their league position, then Norwich's and Swansea's then look at the players signed by them, Norwich and Swansea.

    I would rather have Ayala or Caulker than Gabbidon, Holt or Graham than Bothroyd, Pilkington or Dyer than Wright-Phillips and Howson or McEachran than Barton.


    It's also interesting that they can sign Bothroyd and Campbell then fling them to one side and be replaced by Zamora and Cisse in January.

    Just seen this on the BBC Sport website.
