Hopefully we let them have him for free on the basis any signing fee was given to him as severance or we got a small fee for him and just gave that to him i.e. just to get him off our effing payroll.

Its a big big problem our only back up has played a handful of games at Championship level, if we don't do anything about it before the window shuts and Green does himself an injury it could be the difference in staying up or not
I thought Murphy did pretty well at Sheff Wed last year and the youngster Lumley is highly rated. We don't need to spend big money and wages for a back-up who would hardly play. Neither could do worse than Cesar whose bottle job on the line at Villa still haunts me
Shay Given is number 3 choice at Villa. 38 now but excellent cover. Radek Černý is 40 and still playing. Paddy Kenny is 36 and has no club, although he looks like he has eaten the Leeds defence in close season.
No doubt JC has got a pay off of some sort -- no way Jawbigchin has legged it with a cheque and yet another pair of Phil Beards pants.
I'm just glad the whiff has now all but gone, maybe just Adel left now so he either knuckles down or does one.
Fingers crossed the new additions add ability and the right attitude.
As for GK back up I'm sure we'll be fine and I'm happy enough with Murph and the two young lads. Give people a chance as the majority have shouted for!! GK is the one place we do not need to rotate or have another number 1 level waiting in the wings
Happy with this news but not seen it confirmed anywhere
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
I actually feel this is a shame as whenever he played he always tried his best and was the best shot stopper we have seen for years at qpr. Yes he had a problem with crosses and faded at end of season but aside from that he pulled out a number of MOM performances!
Message boards and social forums have a way of making anger spiral and people seem to resent julio even though he was actually a genuinely nice guy. Didn't want to take a pay cut and who could blame him? Now he's done the decent thing to play football so fair play!
Never understand why some Rs fans think he wasn't a problem for us, despite the fact he refused to move to about five teams with a guarantee of first-team football so he could continue raking it in from his ridiculous Taffia contract.
In terms of cost, performance and the effect on the team, this has to go down as one of the worst transfers in our history. The epitome of everything we have done wrong in the last few years - transfer wise.
I defo would , always had a secret admiration for our Jan
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

I agree with some of the posts in as much I think he is a great shot stopper and it was not his fault we gave him a stupid contract but as fat as I am concerned glad to see the back of him - one down with SWP and Adel to go. The sooner the better.

Think the SWP transfer was much worse. At least JC kept us in a few games.

Cesar came in just weeks after we signed Green who was already on massive money. It alienated Green and sent a message out that every player would be replaced if a bigger name became available. He was probably our highest paid player too, alongside Remy.
SWP turned out to be a poor signing, but at the time wasn't viewed as such and also started out really well. Not to mention that goal against Chelscum.... The worst thing about that transfer was the length of contract, as we are finding out now.

I think there were plenty of comments about SWP being a player more concerned with the size of his wage packet rather than actually playing (hence why he spent years sitting on the bench at Chelsea and City) and wasn't that great a player anyway. Agreed that what happened to Green was shocking management but I think the SWP deal has to be one of our worst. At least with JC we had a QPR player in the Brazilian world cup team
