Did Gianni really make a bid for Hooper?

[IsleworthRanger]

Well what do you reckon chaps?

[stainrodisalegend]

probably; but if his second bid was for £1m presumably his first one was in the 750k/ 800k range - no wonder they didn't take him seriously.

[Morris]

Yes, but obviously not enough!

[m_cooper]

probably about £500,000 really stupid bid

[MYU]

No he paid for a packet of Hula Hoops

1+1=5

[WeAreQPR12]

We are always trying to do it on the cheap. I am pleased and excited about Watson signing but it is clear to see we are crying out for a partner for Simpson. When will they learn? I know we can still loan but I am getting fed up that they don't spend as we are so close to a promotion chasing side.

[qblockpete]

What striker would you have tried to buy?

[WeAreQPR12]

I would of bought Hooper. I think he would of been a great signing or tried to strike a deal for Kamara who was very available. When Bolton dropped out we should of made them an offer they couldn't refuse like 2.5 million

[stainrodisalegend]

Hooper - as you were v right to identify a week ago. But you have to pay the going rate. And if it was about timing, why not have gone in with the bid a few days earlier to give Scunthorpe time to buy some carthorse replacement?

i think this window proved what a tight fisted board we have,no matter what kind of spin some WILL put on it.

Think the Faurlin deal was a mistake.Should have put that cash towards a serious bid for Hooper or Beckford.Midfielders were the last thing we needed to spend that amount of cash on really.

Exactly

[ollyhoops]

He did bid, but not enough.

[HammersmithR]

Goals win you matches and unfortunately we will now struggle to score many!

[stainrodisalegend]

The frustration is you can almost write the match reports before we play the matches - "lots of pretty play by Queens Park Rangers but no one in the box to stick numerous chances away..."
