This isn't actually a rumour, just a thought. Known to tear this league apart and now has a massive point to prove to Harry Redknapp, who accused him of being 3 stone overweight the other day (he clearly isn't).

Loan move?

I suggested Taarabt on the match thread but fear that KeiranShikari is right, QPR will probably want to wait until January to see if they can get an overseas team to pay his wages, £65k per week apparently. 

Scott Sinclair still hasn't found a loan move and we are certainly short of left sided players. That's probably a move I'd support if we could come to an arrangement, it would keep Lafferty & Wes off of the left side. 

Have to admit that I'm actually a bit cheesed off that we've let Snodgrass, Pilkington and Surman leave the club, not signed a left footed midfielder to replace them, and yet have more central players than we need. 

At the time most people thought that Pilkington outgoing for £2m was good business, now that he's played 10 games for Cardiff, with 3 assists and a goal, and after tearing Ipswich apart yesterday (find any match report and search the word 'Pilkington'),I'm missing him!

Great player but unsure on his attitude and as has been stated, high wages. Too much of a risk in my opinion.

Yeah you're all probably right about wages. I too am finding it very frustrating that we seem to have decided we don't need a left winger.

I thought it was just me, and I'm glad others are realising that this is odd.

I'd certainly have him on loan. I remember the season we went up from the Championship a few years ago, he played for QPR and absolutely ripped up this league. Scored 25 goals from midfield I think. As said above, he's probably on much bigger wages than any of our players though.
