Joey out on loan?

[QPRDave]

What do you reckon to this then, from a poster on Reports board, from the Mail

[W12_Ranger]

i just got it ....he will serve12 match ban in championship and be back in action by October!!!

[QPRDave]

yeah.

[qpr]

Can he even play in England will this ban? Is it just the Premier League? if so then it makes perfect sense. + Blackburn could help the Hoilett deal be cheaper (if he's signed)

[Mattyqpr]

Joey still wouldn't be back until November at the earliest. Blackburn are hardly going to agree to a deal for him to come straight back when 12 games have passed. If this happens, i suspect it will be a 3 month loan or until January.

[qpr]

Ohhhhh I think I get it. Because more games are played in the Championship we're sending him onloan there to get the ban done... so QPR pay 100% of the wages while he's gone? That's got to be bending the rules somewhere though

[qpr]

But can Joey play first team football during his loan? That's what I don't understand

Once Blackburn have completed 12 games yes.

[Norths]

If loaned to a championship team he would complete his ban a month before he would in the premiership.

[robqpr]

Blackburn,s 12 th fixture finishes on 24/10, Qpr's on 17/11.not including league up.

Clever move from our side if a Championship side are willing to take him on. They would obviously want some game time though so, IMO, it'd be a loan until Jan.

[silvercue]

I think it will be a loan until Jan minimum, maybe longer.

I think MH wants Joey in a position where he has value so he can move him on in Jan. I can't see Joey playing for QPR again tbh.

If truth in loan to Blackburn I think we've def agreed compensation for Hoilett, so the deal hinges on Junior accepting our package.

Ref Joey if true about loan I think MH doesn't want him for these reasons:

Altho I don't think any rules against it, I'm sure the FA won't stand for it if we just ageed to loan for 3 months and then tool him back once ban ends after him maybe only having 1 or 2 games with them. They will see it as fiddling the ban.

If it does happen, because of above it would be at least Jan, meaning hed beavailable for us later than if he stayed put.... Only benefit is hef be match fit immediately, so not so unrealistic?

If longer then it would be means to an end. If successful and they got promoted and he did well their fans would want them to sign him on perm at end of season.... If he stayed with us there. May be no takers for him.

On reflection I think 6 months makes sense as hed get plenty of games under his belt and be match fit if we want him. If staying with us hed not be matych fit and can't see him being thrown into crucial xmas period if not.

[jmelanie]

What is the latest date the loan would start? Can't imagine Blackburn would want to loan him if he can't play.

[dave58]

He's not allowed to play in England on his ban the only place he can go is abroad also no English team going to take him when he cant play not sure Blackburn can afford him?
It makes sense for the Rs to loan him abroad for 3 months so when he is available for us he's match fit
