Les ferdinand just said on talksport that QPR received two bids for Charlie Austin,one from Leicester and one from Crystal Palace. Both bids were player + cash deals that the club rejected. Most probably BS, as no director of football is going to reveal that info in case it damages any future negotiations.
Sorry but still no director of football is going to make those comments unless it's to make a third party club that's dragging it's heels to come to the fore or to start a bidding war, where there will be only one winner.

Yes but its the last week of the window, and maybe Ferdinand is reminding buyers of the value of Austin? From a QPR point of view, surely its worth them flogging Austin and getting in 4 or 5 players championship level players, who can get them back to the PL.?

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Charlie Austin (rumour)' by james03 Suggestion in the papers is we're in for him again. Surprising considering the signing of Wickham (if true). Financially I am nervous about all these signings with none going out. It's the emotional scars of two administrations.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Charlie Austin (rumour)' by james03 Wickham out for a couple of weeks and at least one of either Gayle or Murray likely to go we could really benefit from a player like Austin who scored two with two assists today.

Next season each club will get 200 Million per season with the new TV deal. You are talking about a different era and we were in a different division in those days, the Championship

It's the emotional scars of two administrations. Newcastle have spent £48m in this window and brought in nothing. West Brom, West Ham and Bournemouth and others have net spends of £20m+ so we're certainly not extraordinary in this regard, plus we were expecting to still run a profit - definitely when the new TV deal comes in (touch wood). Anyway, I'd expect either Gayle or Murray to move before the end of the window anyway and maybe both if we were to spend on Austin which is bound to keep the accountants happy. Not going to happen.

He damn well should be - at the right price which is not fifteen million.' If they want Guerdiora then him plus 8m. is what I would go with. If they want one or two other fringe players such as Mariappa and/or Bannan and reduce the cash element even better. I am 100% certain Gayle and Murray are not the answer to scoring regularly but CA would get us at least 12 and possibly a lot more. forget all this stuff about him being found out in the second half of last season. He is an instinctive and powerful forward who will score goals regardless and has done so throughout his career at all levels. Wanting to keep Gayle and or Murray over Austin is allowing sentiment to rule one's judgement I believe.
The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made. Groucho Marx |

It's the emotional scars of two administrations. totally understand your concern Laddo as the thought of those dark times upsets me. But we can afford Austin. Pretty sure we will sell players before end of the month which would part fund the deal. i'd be happy

If Gayle and Murray moved out, and with Guedioura moving to QPR as part of a player plus cash deal, then it would make sense, and represent a financially prudent striker upgrade. Lots of IFS in this scenario though!
