    I wonder if uncle Tony knows that Joey Barton is now available, with his ban finishing yesterday on June1.

    Says he’s now officially manager of Fleetwood FC but you never know.

    To think l was giving him credit for his work ethics when he was with us. It seemed that he was putting in for club.

    Some may say he’s very predictable at being unpredictable.

    Nothing in it tbh. Just a fans survey https://www.football.london/queens-park-rangers-fc/qpr-fans-transfer-survey-results-14727793

    If you cant be bothered to click on link and scroll down then this is what is written...

    Would you like Jack Robinson to stay at QPR next season?

    It's the contract saga which has rumbled on and on, so it seemed only right that we asked the fans for their opinions.
    Despite not yet agreeing to a new contract, 89.8% of fans still said they would like Jack Robinson to stay at the club next season.
    The defender was one of QPR's most consistent performers during the last campaign, and would no doubt be a key player for the Hoops if he was to stay.

    However, 10.2% of fans who voted said they weren't bothered if he stayed.

    Yes I would. Provided that he fits into the wage structure which I suspect Maclaren is probably unaware of.

    Agreed. But Tone is one of those "Tomorrow Rodders, we'll be millionaires" merchants. Can see him putting a very optimistic spin on the budget available to buy players without actually ever coming clean during the negotiations on the precise amount of glass beads and Air Asia mascots the manager has to play with.

    Surely football managers look beyond the salary and monetary compensation for being sacked and are much more focused on looking intently at the club, the fans, the culture of the club, it’s squad, who the board are and how they operate financially before even considering taking up such an important position!!

    Silly me!!! :emoticon-0120-doh:

    #QPR’s £500k bid for Scunthorpe United centre-half Murray Wallace has been rejected. The #Iron are looking to get closer to £800k, other Championship sides including #LUFC and #ReadingFC are reportedly interested too.

    Same here Jeff. We have gone from knowing the players to not knowing them.
    Another rumour was Dwight Gayle on loan. <yikes>

    Murray Wallace (born 10 January 1993) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a defender for Football League One side Scunthorpe United.
    He also played for the Scotland under-20 and under-21 football teams, after beginning his career in his native Scotland playing for Falkirk in the Scottish First Division in the 2011–12 season.
    Contents
    [1 Career
    Career[edit]
    Falkirk[edit]
    2011–12 season[edit]
    A product of the Falkirk youth system Glasgow born Wallace began his career as a trainee at home town club Rangers before joining the Falkirk academy aged 16,[2] Wallace made his first team debut on 6 August 2011 as a substitute in Falkirk's 1–0 defeat to Raith Rovers in the Scottish First Division.[3] He went on to make his first league start on 13 August 2011 against Partick Thistle at the Falkirk Stadium.[4] He scored his first goal for the club on 5 November 2011 in Falkirk's 4–3 win over Livingston.[5]
    On the last day of the January 2012 transfer window Wallace was sold to Huddersfield Town, and loaned back to Falkirk for the remainder of the season, beginning with a start in the goal less 0–0 draw away at Greenock Morton on 11 February 2012.[6] Wallace went on to make 15 more appearances for Falkirk during the loan spell making it a total 34 appearances scoring twice for the club before returning to parent club Huddersfield Town at the end of the 2011–12 season to meet up with the squad ahead of their League One Play Off campaign with his final appearances coming in a 3–2 win over Ayr as Falkirk finished the season in third position.[7] He was also in the side as they won the 2011–12 Scottish Challenge Cup in April 2012 beating Hamilton Academical 1–0 in the final at Almondvale Stadium on 1 April 2012.[8]
    Huddersfield Town[edit]
    2011–12 season[edit]
    On 31 January, Wallace signed for Huddersfield Town on a two-year deal,[9] after rejecting moves to Brighton & Hove Albion and Ipswich Town.[10] As part of the deal he was immediately loaned back to Falkirk for the remainder of the season.[11]
    Wallace returned to Huddersfield after the end of his loan at former club Falkirk in May 2012 after helping them beat Ayr 3–2 on 6 May 2012 and helping the side to a third-place finish in the Scottish First Division.[7] He was set to train with Simon Grayson's squad throughout the Play-Off campaign until he joined up with the Scotland Under-20 side ahead of a tournament being held in the Netherlands as Huddersfield went on to win the Play Off final beating Sheffield United on penalties to win promotion to the Championship.[12]
    2012–13 season[edit]
    Wallace was given the number 15 shirt by manager Simon Grayson on 12 July 2012 when the squad returned to training for the 2012–13 season.[13] Wallace has so far been a regular feature for Huddersfield during pre season receiving his first call up to the Scotland U21's in August 2012.[14] After patiently waiting for his chance, Wallace made his Terriers début as a substitute in the 1–1 draw against Blackpool at the John Smith's Stadium on 26 December 2012. He made his full début for the team 3 days later in their 0–0 draw with Sheffield Wednesday. His first goal for the club came in the 2–2 draw against Peterborough United on 6 April 2013. Wallace capped the season off by winning Young Player of the Year.
    In the following two seasons, he would make sporadic appearances for the Terriers, mainly due to only being selected when other centre-backs were injured or suspended.
    Scunthorpe loan[edit]
    On 25 August 2015, with appearances still being limited, Wallace joined Scunthorpe United on loan for a month in an emergency loan deal.[15] After making 12 league appearances, he along with team-mate Joe Lolley were recalled by Huddersfield on 1 November.
    Scunthorpe United[edit]
    Wallace signed a three-and-a-half year deal with Scunthorpe United on 2 January 2016.[16] Upon signing for the Iron, Wallace featured in every minute of every competitive fixture until 29 August 2017, when his run of 7,560 consecutive playing minutes was broken as he didn't feature in Scunthorpe's Checkatrade Trophy game against Sunderland U21s.
    International career[edit]
    Scotland U20's[edit]
    Wallace gained his first international call up in May 2012 receiving his first call up by the Scotland U20 side. He was named by head coach Ricky Sbragia in the Scotland Under-20 squad to compete in the 59th ADO Den Haag tournament in May 2012.[17] He made his debate playing the full 90 minutes in a 0–0 draw with Manchester City on 25 May 2012 the same weekend his club side Huddersfield Town secured promotion to the Championship via the League One play-offs.[12] He went on to be featured in all five of Scotland's matches and played the full 90 minutes in each including the 1–0 victory over the hosts ADO Den Haag on 26 May, sending them through to the semi-final were the Scot's lost 2–1 to Mexico, then losing to Cruzeiro 1–0 in the third place play-off match both played on 27 May 2012.[18]
    Scotland U21's[edit]
    On 1 August 2012, Wallace received his first call-up to the Scotland under-21 team, after being named in the under-21 squad for their match against Belgium under-21's on 14 August at East End Park, Dunfermline.[14] He made his début for the under 21's playing the full 90 minutes on 14 August 2012 in a 1–0 defeat in an international friendly against Belgium U21's.[19]

    If Bidwell goes ...I make it

    Hall, Lynch, Furlong, Kakay, Hammelien, Baptiste..................................................... and Robinson


    So in truth 4 defenders and two essentially untried youngsters
