Sinclair Armstrong
Sounds like another Raheem Sterling situation, potentially wanted by the big boys but won't ever make an appearance for QPR. Didn't even realise we had signed him!

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
Understand we signed him in October, not too sure how it works will be make any money if we sell him, what a shame that these types of players can't come through the system and develop and play for the rangers .
So it appears that he's just come to us to train and that there was never any intention of him playing for us, that's the impression I'm getting.
Good that we are bringing youth through ,Personally I know it comes down to finances but wouldn't it be great if we could hang onto these players for longer .
OS Off to Turkey good luck to him, all comes down to money at the end of the day I know that.

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
Maybe age was a factor, but you can sign a professional contract at 16

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
At 16 you can sign up to be an Army Regular, with a lower liklehood of being shot down than playing in front of the Loft (present circumstances excluded)
Keep an open mind, but not so open that your brain falls out.

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
Does anyone know much about him other than other clubs were eyeing him up? How's he looked for our u18s, any u23 appearances?

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
If Man City were after him then that is a great coup keeping hold of him. Imagine the difference in money he would have been offered and the lure of training with the best players in the world and arguably the best coach in the world. Hopefully there will be a spot for him on the first team bench in the not too distant future so that he gets his just rewards.
Come on you Sooopa ........

We know what happened with him instead......
I assume BOS's agent is nowhere near Sinclair..... Cynical.... Moi?

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
Sounds a decent player and a decent chap. Hope we can hang on to him for a bit and if not, he's given the club a chance to profit if he moves on. Unlike others we have come across in recent years.

Re: Sinclair Armstrong
Good to see this lad commit to the club and well done to the club for getting the deal done.
Sounds like the lad has opted for the chance to get game time in the senior levels which is fair enough.
For me, BOS and his agent took the opportunity to increase their financial gain from the situation - nothing more nothing less. I wish him well in his future career but there is no reason for him to expect the fans to look on him with any fondness.

He'd have been a fool to stay.
That's not really cynicism, just bitterness. What's BOS' agent done wrong exactly, he gone and got his client an excellent move. The fact it didn't suit QPR of it's fans is absolutely not his concern and would be a conflict of interest if it were.Systemsguy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 05, 2021 10:35 pmRaheem Sterling was allegedly offered a place in the first team squad by Jim Magilton to stay at QPR all those years ago.....old pauline wrote: ↑Fri Feb 05, 2021 8:35 pmIf Man City were after him then that is a great coup keeping hold of him.
