Clause means Hoilett would cost Stoke £7m

[dsqpr]

You can't win by selling your best players. Junior has started well and could have a great season. We should not sell him.

[ollyhoops]

Depends if Stoke offer £7m though.

Not a bad profit considering he signed for free.

I thought we payed Blackburn compensation. I can't remember the exact number but I thought it was several million (3-4?).

In any case, winning would make me happier than making a profit!


Edit: here it is:
Blackburn will receive up to £4million in compensation following Junior Hoilett's summer move to QPR.

The 22-year-old left Ewood Park to join the Rs after his contract expired and the two clubs have now agreed an initial fee of £3million, which could rise by £1million depending on appearances.

Rovers also revealed they will be entitled to a sell-on fee should the Canadian winger depart Loftus Road for a fee higher than that which the Barclays Premier League club have paid for his services.

Well done I didn't know anything about that arrangement.

We wouldn't make much on him then, I guess it depends if Hughes wants to pay the £7m.

Surely if the player decides to use the buy out clause then the sell-on fee is redundant, since it is not the Club that decided to sell him.

Exactly what would be the point of selling him then, would make fark all, and lose one of our best performers so far this season, without having anyone as good in to replace him.

3 or 4m fark all wish I had your life style

If only! But we paid 3-4m, Blackburn get 40% of whatever profit we make, so in the football world that is relatively fark all, and also bear in mind any replacements are priced at £7m for Townsend and £5m for Phillips.

Don't make sense to me, but wouldn't be surprised if it did happen, cos Stoke have hardly spent anything this year so could well pay what is needed.
