McCarthy

[maidstone_hoop]

As others have said il be gutted if McCarthy goes but green has got 2 or 3 years left him so wouldn't be a major panic or we are screwed by any means.

[Timmy the Doc]

Green has got at least three more years as a top keeper left, let mccarthy go, hes pony anyway. I will even say he will never be a regular top flight keeper.

I'm not sure if he's pony, but agree with you. Green has good 2-3 years left and we have enough time to sign replacement.
If McCarthy is better than Green, then he should stay and play. Otherwise he can go.

With you on this one mate. Havent seen anything for me to rate him highly and if the coaches rated him so highly Im sure more would have been done to play/keep him. Green is easily the best keeper in the championship

Rangers turned down a 3m offer from palace rightly so,,

They only have to up that by 500k and he's a Palace player

A few people on this forum don't rate McCarthy, it doesn't make sence selling him, but if he wants to go then the clubs hands might be tied

So does the clause exist? ....If they're serious and there is a clause, why not bid it and bypass QPR altogether?

How much did we pay for him???? Think that clause is less then what we paid

McCarthy bid rejected but Palace still keen

QPR are expected to receive another bid from Crystal Palace for Alex McCarthy after rejecting an offer of £3m.

A bid of £3.5m would trigger a release clause in the contract McCarthy, 25, agreed when he joined Rangers from Reading a year ago.

Depending on who you believe it's either £2.5m or £3m we paid for him. The £6m fee that was banded around was with add-ons which obviously wouldn't have been met considering he only played 4 games for us.

So we're making a small profit on him.

[kron-1664]

Sell if we get the money/near to the money we paid and reinvest in Dan Bentley from Southend

think hes destined for bigger things in the next 18 months

There is no way we'd give a player a contract with a release clause that is less than we paid for him. We might have been daft in the transfer market in recent years, but not that daft!

Exactly. By the sounds of it we paid £2.5m for him with possible add ons totalling £6m (which obviously haven't been activated as he has barely played for us).

It's probably a relegation based clause - if we were still in the PL it might be higher. It's just a way of covering the club and player in case of relegation.

Yeah, I get that. It still won't be less than we paid for him though!
