Summer Transfer Window

[cross it Dave]

All very confusing, I am sure our directors will know how much is coming their way, I think they deserve a payout if they have been propping the club as has been reported.

I have found this.

"There has been much speculation and confusion over the sell on percentage negotiated by former QPR Director of Football Les Ferdinand, although it is now understood to be worth 15% of the profit made by Crystal Palace. While this is a far cry from the 20% of total fee that many Rangers fans may have previously thought, QPR are still set to earn around £5.25 million plus a percentage of the add ons".

I think its a case of the only people that know are those who have seen the contract. One thing is for sure, Nourry wont disclosure the length of a player contract, so nobody will get a straight answer from him.

I'm reading articles that's it's profit sheep I'm afraid

Can you post them up please

£68 million minus £17 million equals £51 Million profit for Palace.

£51 million times 20% = £10.2 Million to our well deserved directors.

Hopefully they’ll invest a portion of that in the squad.

Ronnie Edward’s for me.

Very happy to be corrected.

20% of the fee not the profit.

Also it was recently reported that the £17m went to £20m due to very achievable add ons. £68m x 20% + £20m = £33.6m

I think Sir Les deserves a bit pat on the back for putting that deal together, if it all concludes to the end.

I always assumed it was a percentage of the actual fee, not the profit? I don't actually know though...

One thing I do know..... we ain't signing Edwards. His next move is for big bucks to a top club I'm afraid.

Is that the £68 million?

That seems to be the most common figure quoted.

Arsenal back in for Eze apparently and prepared to offer the clause value.

According to a report from West London Sport, Queens Park Rangers are still interested in signing versatile defender Rhys Norrington-Davies from Sheffield United in this summer’s transfer window. However, as the report goes on to say, Sheffield United are holding off on sanctioning the move until they themselves have brought in another defender. Norrington-Davies, who came through the academy in South Yorkshire after a stint at Swansea City, has made well over 50 first-team appearances for United, as well as over 100 appearances out on loan for the likes of Barrow, Rochdale, Luton Town and Stoke City. Traditionally a left-back, Norrington-Davies has also been deployed on the left-side of a back three, as well as occasionally playing as a centre-back in a two, too.

That Bio could have been written about Morgan Fox too...we need a specialist Left back

[SheepRanger]

Ben Davies doesn't fit the project in terms of his age, so that would buck the stated plan. Also, by most descriptions he's a CB who can play LB. The latter really causes me to shake my head - I realise quality LBs are in short supply but all the evidence before our very own eyes, over past and this season, surely suggests it's a specialist that's needed not another jack of all (or some).

I thought it was 20% of the profit on any future sale.

Us in a battle with Oxford? Oh my, how things change.
