WH must want to leave that's the only explanation. But surely we need somebody who is ready for prem league football as a replacement ?

McCarthy was at Wanderers in his early career and left when their goalkeeping coach had a falling out with Paul Lambert (I think) and moved to Reading. I am not suggesting a lack of loyalty, in fact the opposite. The coach was his goalkeeping mentor so he made the decision to stay with him and joined the academy at the Royals.
So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet. |

If this [Link] is to be believed, we made an offer of £3m, half a million under his release clause and QPR rejected it. Why would we do that? Does that make sense to anyone else or can anyone offer up an reasonable explanation of what we'd bother making an offer we much know QPR would reject?

You do realise this is real money and not Championship Manager? Why wouldn't we bid lower?

I guess my actually question is, why would QPR take £3m if the release clause is £3.5m?

I guess my actually question is, why would QPR take £3m if the release clause is £3.5m? They may need the money. They may need to sell before they can buy, and so although the clause may be £3.5m, they would accept less to complete other business elsewhere. Release clauses are all well and good but if your not flush with cash or options you may well accept a lesser figure than risk keeping an asset to the detriment of investment elsewhere. I must apologise for my sarcasm earlier. This site and the BBS has turned me into a bit of an online knob. Too many arguments with actual unpleasant people.

I agree...its common knowledge that the release clause is £3.5m so why even bother to try and see if they'll accept £3m? Bizarre...stop f***ing about and offer the amount we know that will trigger the clause.
