fer has failed medical at Sunderland....

[qprjeff1882]

Would love to be a fly on the wall at QPR at the moment

[bakes8]

Fer is a class act. Would love him to stay.

[WeAreQPR12]

He is our best player although most will disagree

[cross it Dave]

He is our best player although most will disagree

Austin?

[Fordy]

He is our best player although most will disagree

Agree

[QPRDave]

Welcome back btw.

Could still happen. If there is prob imagine Sunderland will just ask to reduce loan fee or pay it in instalments in the event what ever they have picked up on leads to him breaking down

[nasser95]

Austin?

Fer is better IMO, don't think I've seen someone his size move with the ball as well as he does.

[Southport]

Great news!! Fer is awesome

[upperloft]

####ing hell are we desperate or what?? He has not pulled out the deal because he wants to stay, he has failed a medical, again or the deal has been pulled. Don't get me wrong think Fer was one of the best players last season, that wasn't hard but come on people.

Not sure whether thats a good or bad thing tbh.
Good in the sense that we will keep him for now, bad in the sense that we can't free up wages to get CBs in...

Its good as far as I am concerned. Hopefully Austin will too.
With those two in the team QPR have as good a chance as any to win promotion back 1st time.
They could always try giving Traore and Hoilett away for free just to get them off the wage book. Those two combined probably earn the same ad Fer & Austin anyway.

Fabio apparently passed one with a crack in his back I read and let's not even get on to Helguson

As did Cook and more recently Zarate yet was declared unfit to start a single game during his loan.

[stanistheman]

Be interesting to see what will come out in the next few day whether he is injured and we decided to persevere with him or someone else has made a bid for him. I'm not sure that all this going around that we need all the top earners off the books is true. We've already got rid of loads so Keeping the likes of Fer Austin and Phillips surely wont hurt the club that much seeing as we had many more on more money last season. I know we have to keep in line with spending compared to the past but surely the club can still afford to keep them.

I agree. Barton SWP Caulker Zamora Dunne Ferdinand plus the loanees Isla Vargas Krancjar Zarate thats 10 high earners off the books and some others. The new signings are on far less money plus QPR have or will receive around 15m for Sterling McCarthy & Caulker. Yes theyll make a loss this season but nothing like 2 years ago and the rules have changed since then.

Good point.
