Paper waffle as usual.

I'm pleased to see that he will not sign for QPR. He is not really needed and 60k is a hell of a lot for a 33 year old who may or even play frequently.

[SuperHoopNik]

Apparently he's accepted £30k-a-week to join Cardiff...Forgot where I saw this though

[Deadend_Friend]

If this is true then I'm really starting to worry about the size of the wages we pay. I understand we need to spend a fair bit on them but christ, its unnecessarily over the top

The dreaded Naawich (I know I shouldn't mention that name around here) allegedly have a wage ceiling of £20k, can't understand why we have to be offering double plus to entice players here who should be bloody glad they're being given the chance to join the rev!!
I worry about the economics of our club too; hope TF is as healthy as his ambitions!!

Exactly, tabloid bullsh*t as usual!

The fact is that nobody other than Mark Hughes, the QPR board, Bellamy & Bellamy's agent know what was offered to him. The only person who could possibly gain out of those guys by putting the story public is the agent and who would trust a word that comes out of a football agents mouth?!!!

The Sun, the Mirror, the People, the Mail......it's all garbage, they take a little bit of fact and dress it up with some hear say and some big numbers. It all needs to be taken with a huge pinch of salt!

[QPR1976]

Why would we sign both Bellamy & Hoilett and pay both similarly high wages when only 1 can play the wide left/strikers role ?
Besides Adel isn't bad cutting in from wide left.

I'd rather we give DJ another chance, he seems to have his shooting boots on.
We could then use that saved wage to nail Samba.

So you think players, agents, clubs don't speak to & have friends in the media?

Oh rigggght.

[Mellowhoop]

Ric 60 large a week is rubbish...do you know why.. Cause he would of bitten our hand off for that a week..

Ric, of course there are others who would know and potentially leak said ifo, but normally there would be an agenda to so so to bump up offers elsewhere. If the other suggested report that's he's accepting half that to go to Cardiff, it doesn't ring true as nobody would benefit by doing so.

...knowing cardiff fans, it is entirely possible that he'd want it known that he turned down much better offers to become their top earner (for when they turn on him).

£60k is way way way too much, but i'm surprised that bellamy is on his way back to the championship - i thought he looked a much poorer player in a championship side than he has ever done when playing at premiership level.
