Jay Bothroyd

[Yousef]

Sounds reasonable now

[QPRDave]

QPR forward Jay Bothroyd, 31, wants to leave Harry Redknapp's side after invoking a relegation clause in his contract.

Oh no!!!!!!!!....

[Norths]

In all honesty I hope he goes.

No doubt he is on a very decent wage which for his lack of talent is undeserving and that could be put to good use paying the weekly wage of 2 or even 3 players. Poor scoring record, lazy, not getting any younger all reason enough for me to say bye bye.

[Robsondinho]

Probably fancies reigniting a old flame.......Cardiff.

Saw this on LFW, apparently a leak of the contract agreement when he signed

Absolutely shocking if that is legit.

Anyone remember this, I think most believe it was fairly accurate?

If true, he's certainly had a lot of "appearance" bonuses - and no mention of relegation release clause for 2012/13.

[HertsHoops]

Doesn't want to go abroad, and too good for the Championship (in his head ) so maybe back to Cardiff ? Can't see them paying him what we are though

[Jeems]

Northolt, lighting fingers!

Hahha. Kudos to the person who has come up with that ********.

[Rangers77]

I wonder If there are release clauses for Granero, Cesar, PJS and Bosingwa!

QPR have sacked Bothroyd by invoking a relegation clause in his contract..... Can you imagine that?? The sooner someone breaks the power of players the better. Am eager to see that tattooed oik leave.

[Norths]

Again, if true, that also highlights how much these (unting agents suck out of the game.

Agents earn mega dough mate. Even just small timers. Fella I know recently passed agents tests / exams or whatever to gain his license & reckons he will have himself a few young upcoming lads frmo various PL clubs (couple from Foolham I know of) and he is on 10% of their wages - just his few young lads equates to him bringing in about £3,500 a week and that's in his first 5 minutes in the game. 1 "big" player on the books earning, say, £40k a week will more than double that.

I'm in the wrong career!

[maverick69]

A genuine FIGJAM if there ever was one...... although the "G" should probably be something else judging by those fluffy Uggs he wears.......

[Tarbie]

The Mirror article has a bit more substance that the one in the Star and it makes sense. If we can shot of Bothroyd on a free transfer then that is exactly what we should do. Shame there aren't more in our squad with the same type of release clauses!

Its easy to see why people leech from the game with the sums involved.
