There is speculation over Paul Smyth following QPR’s offer for the Linfield forward.

West London Sport recently revealed that the R’s had made an offer for the 19-year-old and subsequently that they had yet to receive an answer from Linfield, whose directors are expected to meet this week to discuss the offer.

The Belfast Telegraph, on the other hand, say QPR’s bid has been rejected but that deal is close because the offer was close to Linfield’s valuation of Smyth.

The Belfast Telegraph also say there is interest in the player from other clubs and declare that QPR “are clearly huge admirers of Smyth” and “are anxious to get the deal over the line.”

It has been claimed that he is also wanted by Reading, London Football News reports.

A Reading scout recently attended a Linfield game, prompting reports that the Royals are keen on Smyth.

  • Bring back Warnock let him run the club ....we dont need Muppet managers

  • No one else enjoying the start to the season? The stability in the squad? The delightful play of Scowen and Freeman? The best keeper in the league? The end of throwing bad money after bad money? I enjoyed Saturday, it was fun. Long may Sir Les & Ollie reign.

  • Sir Les has to go. He has no idea and is the root of all. Furthermore it was never really addressed if was involved with JFH issues.

  • well all i can say is that rs are now one of the many teams below the premiership that have become farms for the top clubs
    we are unlikely to be considered to go up this season as we are 3rd favs to be relegated next to millwall and barnsley so expect holloway and management to part by christmas and no money will be spent on transfers looking to make money, so smithies will be sold last minute all high wages players will go in this transfer period carl henry will be back in the team as hes cheap for another season all the high priced players will be sold or let go
    so dont expect any transfers in other than loan players only players leaving
    wait till christmas see us at the top half or holloway sacked
    good luck rs

  • 14 player's have been Linked to us but none have been signed thats just to keep us interested same thing every year

  • caulker to Celtic,that would be one problem less for Holloway and les ferdinand,infact it would be a Letoff for both who have no answer to the so called problem, how is it that other managers are willing to try to restore caulker to his previous best and all we can do is wait for him to return,Answer = because Rs management is inept and pathetic.

  • this has to be one of the worst pre seasons I have ever encountered in over 55 years of following the Rs,I feel totally despondent,I have no faith in our manager and as for transfer gossip thats all it is with us Gossip,even sky sports won't be bothering to show any of our games in the first couple of months, why has it come to this?.what are all of our so called management team doing to give us any hope that this coming season will be any better than last season,I wish I believed in miracles, however I fear the worst.
