One extreme to another

[Bluehoop]

Fact is nobody knows whats going on behind the scenes, even with caulker. Every ones just presumed he's stringing us along but we don't know the situation. I just think the club are in hard position atm. The reputation of we pay over the odds is hard to shake and players who thought they could come to us on 50,60 or 70 k contracts are probably shocked to be only offered the going rate. We certainly seem more prudent and with a plan in place. I also think people really underestimate the fact like any business, that multi million pund deals are not as simple as they happen to be on football manager.
Tf has also put out to the press this morning about agents only getting 5 % of any deal or they can do one, so tome it seems there probaly is a lot of people still trying to take the p*** with QPR.
I also dont think we as a club are saying you can only play if you love QPR but they certainly seem to be looking for players with the desire to play football and have pride in their work and thats brilliant.

And how many times did I read last season that we need to give our squad players a chance to impress. What better time than now, during a pre-season tour. Can't say I expect many of them to excel but out of the 12 or so that are going along for the ride, let's see who stands up to the count

In Tony and our scouts we trust. Not sure it will pay off this summer though.

i honestly cant believe that tony thinks he can attract prem quality players to our club without paying higher than avrage wages or agents fees.

i predict yet another messy tensfer window and a painful season. hope im wrong though

That is the real danger. Big test.

[Kevin Mcleod]

Does anyone else think that the clubs attitude towards signing players has gone from one extreme to another - there is almost a smugness in us now in terms of we will not sign anyone unless they love qpr, are the right sort, etc etc

Whilst I hated the way we piled any player in when we were last in the premiership - we need to hurry up or I fear a repeat of Swansea and Bolton when we play hull

The caulker situation is beyond a joke now and I just wonder with lovren Liverpool bound whether he will end up at Southampton

I genuinely thought we would have 2 more in ahead of this tour

Come on rangers - sort it out

Not being rude,

[West Acton]

So what are we now saying that throwing money at players and overpaying what someone is worth (Basically hat we done two years ago) was in fact the correct thing to have done??

In all fairness mate, we probaly can't and thats why as fans and the owener need to be realistic. We should be following suit of other promoted clubs and buying the best from the championship who we can afford or picking up a couple of foreign bargins ect.

Its why I get annoyed with expectations on here sometimes. Last year all we craved was prem football and the chance to do things right and bring in the right players. A lot seem to have forgotten that now and expect us to sign like for like replacemnt for remy again and put their noses up to some of the decent players from the championship as they are not tested.

im all for buying good championship players mate.

redmond, fer, lansbury, deeny but when you look at how much mcormack and ulloa have gone for will tony want to pay that amount of money?

[West London is Rss]

I aint judging anything until the final whistle of the home game

[Rangersw12]

No point spendings stupid amounts on wages or transfer fees as we are still in a precarious financial position

If we sign one or two more and get rid of a couple of others then we have done well

In modern day football never underestimate team spirit and togetherness which this team seems to have in abundance , Palace showed last season you don't need a group of superstars but a team with a set game plan and hard work to survive.

The fans shouldn't panic and start writing off this team without even a ball being kicked

Nah they been proper mugged off.......It is scary how much now even champ players are going for, but they still tend to be cheaper then the prem ones. Football has gone crazy.

[Hertford Hoop]

You'll never keep all the fans happy all the time (unless we win the CL), whatever TF or the manager do or say it will sit comfortably with some and not others. I just love all the no it alls that spout on about what we should or shouldn't do and then moan when things change.

[caisersosa]

i hated the way we have done business over the last few windows...id rather we do it with professionlism and diligence.no more skysports deadline day circus!

Agreed, I'm in Brighton and fans down here can't believe they got £7m for Ulloa, think he is a right cart horse. Seen him a few times and actually think decent quality Championship striker but £7M? Crazy money.

[Ginger Ninja]

For crying out loud, Mem, would you rather we went out and signed all and sundry like Hughes did? Stop bloody moaning!
