Didn't we get BOS on the cheap as he'd run his contract at Blackpool down to the final 12 months? Maybe this is just what he does? Can't blame him really. If I was a professional footballer I'd probably do the same. Bound to be easier to negotiate a decent sign-on fee if there is a smaller transfer fee involved. It was an undisclosed fee but think it was still £750k. Saw an article recently where it described how Eze ,Chair and Bos get together regularly to discuss how they could fire QPR into the prem this year and what it would mean to the club and fans. As others have said a million times before “if only “ I cant do links but maybe someone can. www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/qpr-bright-Osayi-Samuel-interview-Championship-Blackpool-efl-a9452321.html

I rate BOS but my prediction is if he goes prem too soon (within next 2 years) then he will disappear and end up a championship player rest of his career. He’s got to time this right
He’s a player of huge potential and his pace is his USP but in the prem you need a bit more then pace if your going play regular. He’s still a very frustrating player as the positions he’s gets in do not always result in an outcome. He gets away with that at ours, he won’t in the prem as it’s sink or swim.
United looking to loan out James, as like I’m saying above, there has been little end product from him but he has pace to burn.
Big decision for BOS as next move and timing in my view makes or breaks Him in the top flight, some players don’t recover if it don’t happen.
Play the Long game Would be my advice, sign a new contract with us, make your mistakes in front of a fanbase who love you and safe environment to try things, soak up all that experience for two years then make your name in Prem

Think there should be some protection for clubs below the prem when it comes to players running down their contract. Don't blame the players but a club like us have put a lot of effort into developing BOS cos he was very very raw when he joined.

It might just be me but when we had Wells, Eze, BOS & Chair playing together they each had a different facet to their games which the others didn't and epitomised the adage that the sum of the parts was greater than the whole. Wells' heading and striking, BOS' pace, Eze's silky vision and Chair's never say die trickery. Wells has been the first to find out out the reason that he had such a stellar goalscoring season after many years of mediocrity and I wonder if that will happen with BOS & Chair? Eze not so much as he has more raw talent than the others but even he will nee to be at the right team to thrive. QPR had the perfect storm with them all being here together and, bar Wells, quite a few seasons together in the U23's.

I would imagine when BOS signed from Blackpool it was on quite modest terms.It also looks like the new contract we are offering is below what BOS and his agent values himself at. Luke Freeman was in a similar position running his contract down but re-signed when we all knew he would leave as soon as window opened. What persuaded Luke Freeman to resign and why can’t we do the same with BOS . Are we always going to lose our talented players for less than market value because we don’t pay a decent wage anymore ?

Are we always going to lose our talented players for less than market value because we don’t pay a decent wage anymore ? only thing I would say is persuading them to extend, same as we did with Smithies, means we prob set a transfer trigger clause and fans will just moan as they did when we sold freeman and Smithies that we sold them cheap but I do agree with suggestion that’s way to go when contracts are this short and there is stalemate

If our blueprint is to recruit young raw players and develop them then at some stage someone has to wise up and recognise our talented players and reward them earlier with better contracts otherwise this is a reoccurring problem going forward.. I know that’s easy for me to say that but it just feels our club is getting shafted at every opportunity.

Until we can get a few sold at a decent profit we won't be in a position to offer them what they are worth because of the P&S sanctions in FPP.

I know your right in what you say Esox ..it’s so frustrating that for the first time in years we have got a very good crop of youngsters that will need to be sold cheaply so we comply with a rule that will probably be seen to be unworkable very soon.

It well come to pass but if, as has been suggested, a salary cap is introduced we could still be screwed if it is based on say 70% of matchday receipts and that would load the Championship in favour of the clubs with the biggest gates. If it were to be based on a revenue percentage there would be nothing to stop rich owners pumping money into overpriced sponsorship deals etc. which would have the same effect as favouring he clubs with the biggest gastes. I can't imagine for one minute that a blanket salary cap for the Championship, regardless of revenue streams, would ever fly with enough of a majority in favour. Football is at the crossroads and there are no signposts.

I never saw the Morgan twins or Ron Springett live but from my memory every player sold were not to the detriment of the team or to “just survive “
I can’t think of many players that went on to a more successful career winning trophy’s or caps after leaving Rangers during Jim Gregory leadership.
During his tenure his record of recognising when a players best days were behind them was one of his main attributes..he also consistently brought better players “in “than were sold “ on “often at good profit.
All this whilst winning the League Cup , getting into Europe and turning our ramshackle ground into a stadium.

Ian was not a like for like replacement IMO. Similarly with Peter Springett, Ron was definitely past his best as Peter was in his prime with us. It was a long time before we ever managed to replace Marsh too. There was a reason that someone graffitied "Gregory is a slag" on the SAF wall.

What’s his price?? I would put him slight below Eze as he’s less consistent. Nothing less then £15mil with add ins on top Rumours abound that he is looking to run his contract down and all we will get as a club is a tribunal fee due to his age. Fucking Bosman

Fucking Bosman If that's the case surely we'll take the decision out of his hands and sell him this summer. It's a bit of a nightmare scenario really. The football economy is on it's arse and we have 2 of the best prospects we've had in years with contracts that are running round and bigger clubs in their ears. You just know we are gonna have our pants pulled down, don't you?!!

Fucking Bosman Danny Ings was valued by Burnley at £10m in 2016....a tribunal ordered Liverpool to pay £6.5 m with £1.5 add on for apps. i would guess that BOS is valued by the club at around £10m and that valuation may be seen to be a fair price by looking at D James £15m transfer to Man U recently. If you listen to Les on podcast he is bullish and confident of achieving a fair price if it goes to a tribunal. I thought the club got turned over by Hall going on a Bosman but you disagreed..what’s different about BOS ?

(a guess based on his being bought for the U23 squad from Blackpool) and thinks he can get 3 to 4 times that by running his contract down then QPR are going to have to face the fact that they are reliant on tribunals setting fees for the youngsters we produce if we can't get them into a high profile in the first year or two of their contracts. We were lucky that Eze displayed his abilities, and worth, during the first year of his contract so we have a better chance of getting a good price for him. The club could offer him a better contract at the wage ceiling but it still wouldn't be close to what he could earn at the sort of club that is likely to splash out on him. A harsh fact of life for QPR at the moment but we are supposedly half way through our plan to get the club properly back on its feet.

Decent price given circumstances. Get 15-20 for Eze, 3-4 for Manning and that should tie us over financially for next couple years.
