Paper interest in Freeman 09:13 - Jul 29 with 65383 views | bosh67 | Apparently West Brom and Boro looking at a bid ITRO £3m for him. Would be a huge loss for us but given what's happened and what we bought him for that would be around a 10 fold return. Depends where we are in terms of being able to fight off bids. I imagine Freeman would be happy to stay as he plays every week here and perhaps the FFP settlement means that we don't have to get picked off by the vultures in terms of selling players. I guess if he does go we have Manning who could play that role and Chair. Hopefully just press bluster. [Post edited 29 Jul 2018 9:13]

Paper interest in Freeman on 17:03 - Aug 3 by Lblock | If we sell Freeman now I think that's us bottom 6 and bang in trouble It'll mean we have lost a keeper and midfielder worth I'd say 16 to 24 points and not replaced them. I also think it'll really unsettle the squad The Smithies money has obviously been allocated into the "Bungle Fund" as there a zero squad additions on the horizon, I'd imagine any fee for any player will go the same way. I struggle to see how that's not the case as if we don't add to the squad next few days then don't forget we can't then add to it until next summer. How anyone can continue to defend Bungle I do not know. |

Now Mr Bungle can be accused of many things, but making money from the club certainly isn't one of them! | | | |

Paper interest in Freeman on 21:35 - Aug 8 with 2835 views | traininvain | Selling Freeman to Blackburn, a relegation rival, would be pretty disastrous. I can only assume the club is resigned to selling him at £4/5m (circa 10x what we paid) & using the Blackburn bid to push Middlesbrough for a higher offer. | | | |

Paper interest in Freeman on 21:54 - Aug 8 with 2665 views | MedwayR | We shouldn’t take anything less than £6m for Freeman, and ideally not until Jan/next summer either although I’m not sure how long he has left on his contract. | |

Paper interest in Freeman on 21:55 - Aug 8 with 2659 views | Dixie_CT | Random guess but I think £5m might be the pinch point. We could invest half into a new striker but what is £2.5m going to get you there days. Conor Washington? Maybe give Warnock a call and ask for Gary Madine or Danny Ward on loan. Although it's a struggle to fit Eze and Freeman into the same team, I'm starting to panic now if Freeman does go. Massive gamble and huge trust in McLaren's coaching ability | | | |
Paper interest in Freeman on 21:58 - Aug 8 with 2630 views | Lblock | So long Luke, we’ll miss you, quite significantly this season I think. Not because you’ve gone which is “the QPR way now” (ie sell to a rival and significantly improve them); but because we seem patently unable to replace you or use your fee to improve other obviously weak areas. I fully accept the need to buy low sell high, always was my mantra, and I’d accept £6.5Mill I caveat that with the above, currently that fee would mean Bungle is £10Mill closer to having paid off the fine that he is 100% responsible for. Boring following this club ..... it ain’t!!! | |

Coming very late to this, and apologies if covered already, but has Freeman been upgraded on the wages front since being bought as a player valued in the hundreds of thousands? I'd imagine a club prepared to pay millions will also be offering relevant wages and this might encourage him to suffer the grind of life in the delightful industrial north west | | | |

If he went to Blackburn, it's highly unlikely that he'd live there. As unlikely as him living in the Bush. | | | |
Paper interest in Freeman on 22:26 - Aug 8 with 2340 views | Blue_Castello | This is really starting to wind me up how the hell can Blackburn afford 4/5 million for a player, I'm sure if you check they have already spent money on other transfers. I really don't want Freeman to leave we currently have a squad that's going to be battling relegation and you want to sell one of our best players from last year. We need some strength in depth if we are going to compete this season, if we take the money for Freeman there will be no time to replace him. If we sell then FFP really does have us royally screwed, we need to keep our best players to avoid relegation, League 1 football finances would be a disaster. | | | |

the Ribble valley is beautiful and an easy commute to Blackburn............. Blackburn have had years of high wages and declining crowds, before last years successful campaign. Personally I'd be surprise if they have that sort of money to spend on one player | | | |

Paper interest in Freeman on 23:03 - Aug 8 with 2058 views | queensparker | I think we need to calm down and stop pearl-clutching. Blackburn have bid 4m for Freeman. That’s it. No indication we’re going to sell him for that, it’s just a bid being reported. Isn’t going to happen | | | |
