50-50 On New Striker Before...Barnsley

[qblockpete]

Though no rush.

By our first trip at Sheffield United probably have 2 strikers

[BennyBoyRs]

No rush?

Leon Clarke it is then. I'm hoping we get at least one in before Barnsley. 3 points in your 1st game is very important.

[Youvebeenrangered]

One in before barnsley would be nice, if not i will except helgusson for a game/ clarke.

[qblockpete]

Clarke is injured

[MYU]

I would agree with you Benny and we had all summer to bring him in.

[WeAreQPR12]

No rush? true I mean we have been waiting 3 months so whats another few weeks.

Our strike force will be shocking and definately the worst strike force in the championships opening fixture.

I actually think Helguson is shocking but I am struggling to think of someone else?

[knocker]

Pat, it is then!

[stainrodisalegend]

No rush? Why exactly when 3 points cd make all the difference come the end of the season.

[DelTrotter]

We will have to wait until the end of the window. Prem clubs have to name there 25 man squad on the 30th (i think) so whoever isn't wanted will be allowed to leave then

[southwalesR]

prem striker?
harewood on a free would do me

[qblockpete]

So if we signed a striker say thursday or friday, you would start him on Saturday?

depends who the striker is

[WeAreQPR12]

Pete if u signed by thursday and had a big enough pair of shorts to wear then I would start u on sat, it really is getting that bad!

[andythefish]

If he's fully fit,then yes!!

Newcastle, WBA and Blackpool all failed to win their opening match last season (albeit WBA and Newcastle played each other) so as Pete says it is no rush. Wolves failed to win their opening match the year before that and Burnley didn't win until game 5 (they lost 4-1 on the opening day).

It's more important that we get our man on our terms then not to do the deal because we've tried to rush it through. Yes we've had 3 months to do deals but none of us know the circumstances behind such a deal. Yesterday it was suggested that Bednar wasn't interested in signing for us a few months ago but because nobody else has gone in for him he may now be interested. If this is the case then maybe this is why we haven't been able to do a deal until now. If it's Walters then maybe we've been waiting on Ipswich's transfer dealings. It doesn't always have to be QPR's fault for things taking so long.
