    You have a point. But he knows what our financial situation is like and should have been happy to enable us to get real money for him. However he has chosen to fall into line with the Turks to save them some money instead and be devious about it. Players even stupid ones don't behave like that ie in a disloyal way to their employers unless they are getting something out of it. Given he was going to go to Turkey whatever I can only assume he has received some money to keep quiet. Having probably been given a substantial pay rise to stay for another year. He has been laughing all the way to the Bank.

    He knows that by running his contract down that any fee we would have got is now likely to be a nice fat signing on fee for him and a large slice to his agent,basic economics on his part

    The Turks are now saying they will offer plays in exchange a striker or CB, that’s not what we need now, creative midfielder is wanted

    I doubt that Bright is actually that bright and that commercially he is being very much led by his agents. They appear to be a UK family business, one of their directors is a former Newcastle board member it seems. They act for McGuire and Rooney it appears too.

    I think Bright will have been advised exactly what to do to maximise his future income. I do think it will have been choices made mostly for financial reasons.

    All in all a very disappointing way to end his career with us.

    He occasionally showed some electrifying pace and put in a few great performances. I hope he has a successful career and that one day he matures to realise he dealt with his move from the R’s in a horribly unprofessional manner.

    Certainly one of those instances where we have lost out (ie we didn’t maximise on our investment). Hopefully we will get some form of compensation, though I’m sure it will be peanuts compared to a transfer fee.
    Not particularly happy, but it is what it is.
    Hope he achieves what he believes he can. I wasn’t particularly wowed by him, if I’m honest, he is a good player that has been inconsistent and can be found out due to trying to work the ball to his favoured foot. But many have been the same and more successful. We will see if he becomes an international force or a bench warmer in 18 months time I guess, when we suddenly think ‘what happened to BOS?’.
    I do like a good winger though, so intrigued to see what we get next (from our own or brought in).

    Seems a fee has been agreed with Fenerbache for BOS, hopefully that'll be the end of it...

    Somebody remind me why we let him go all those years ago?
    Why do some players always seem to be viewed through rose coloured specs. Nice guy but what did he actually do apart from keep the physios in a job.
    He is defo not the box to box midfielder we need.

    We needed to give Karl Henry more games.

    Harry Redknapp wanted to bring in one of his boys. Lovely jubbly loads of money. For someone anyway. What did he do? I know that Adel was the player who made the difference between a solid but uninspiring team of journeymen and the champions they became. Also it is fashionable to lavish praise on Shaun Derry and Clint Hill for their part. But he more than played his part and in spite of the horrendous run of injuries, his head never dropped and he rarely wasted the ball. It was the others around him who did that.

    QPR winger Bright Osayi-Samuel is reportedly set to join Fenerbahce within the next 48 hours with the two clubs having reached a new agreement over a permanent deal.

    With his contract set to expire in the summer, it always looked likely the 23-year-old’s future would be decided in the current window and Fenerbahce confirmed earlier this month he had signed a pre-contract with the Turkish club.

    According to Football Insider, however, the R’s have been keen to negotiate a deal that sees him leave this month rather than at the end of the season in the hope of being better compensated for the deal.

    It seems he is on the move but director of football Les Ferdinand seems to have negotiated a deal that sees them better compensated for his exit, though they’ll now be without him for the rest of the season.

    The report claims that such an agreement has now been reached between the two clubs, with Osayi-Samuel given the green light to fly to Turkey and complete the move over the next 48 hours.

    The value of the deal is unclear but it is understood that the west London club had been negotiating a £750,000 fee previously.

    It is believed that the player turned down offers from Celtic and Rangers to move to secure the move to Turkey.

    Osayi-Samuel, who joined the R’s from Blackpool in 2017, has agreed to a contract that will keen him at Fenerbahce until the summer of 2025

    Following Ebere Eze’s summer move to Crystal Palace, Mark Warburton has now lost his best two attacking options in back-to-back windows

    I'll take that.

    He'd be utterly pointless here until the end of the season.

    You're joking right?
    He'd be approximately 5 times better than any player at the club in his position, if he arrived tomorrow.
    Fair comment about the injuries, which imo, along with a lack of pace, prevented him being a world class player.
    He was a proper midfielder who could head, tackle and find a pass, with superb technical ability.

    Never believe a word "Football Insider" write, but I'd laugh if BOS did go out there, take look one look at the place, decide its worse than Brugge or Glasgow, and turn them down too.

    He’s already signed. Istanbul is meant to be quite a cool place to live if you’ve got a few quid. Bit hairy when they lose but then they don’t lose that much.

    Do you think he'll get much game time there? He's not consistant enough to be getting picked week in, week out in a team chasing league titles. Maybe an impact sub
