£3m is a bit steep for a League 1 striker imo.

Was thinking that. Was playing for St Ives 3.5 years ago and Newport 18 months ago!

That said though, Austin & Andrew Gray have made similar rapid progress through the leagues and have both proven very savvy investments, so could be a wise buy.

Just seen his record at Peterbrough is 27 goals in 81 apps. Decent return but not worth £3m imo.

Same with Vardy

Has that site ever got anything correct, seen so much absolute rubbish linked form there on to this board. What is the site anyway, never click it, looks like it would infect you with a poison.

not worth more than £1.5m

It's reporting the story from the Mail.

I'd prefer Gayle and Bamford rather than Washington.

Oh right, wasn't knocking you posting it, just don't trust that site.

Yeah we pay 3 mill for a league one striker and sell a top proven premier league striker for 4 mill ..... great business that

True mate but neither of these commanded such high fees until they had played championship football

It is and it isn't, looking at what players are going for in the Champ. (Excluding Chaz...)

3 mill for a league 1 striker under contract is about right now.

If we hadn't run down Charlie's contract he would of gone for 10-12 mill.

Top chpionship strikers have been going for 8 mill plus now so league 1's top talents are fairly priced around 3-5 mill.

It's the world we live in now but I would love qpr to spend that money on another young up and coming talent.
