The Changing Face of QPR

-
Much has been made in the press about QPR's "big spending" and signing of some nine or ten players. But QPR have also released a slew of players. Added to the players they released last summer (and the year before), and there's been an ongoing turnover of players at Loftus Road. With 60+ hours to go before the transfer window closes, more departures (and arrivals) remain possible. (QPR lead the Championship in the number of players used this season.)

In recent weeks, a number of QPR players have been released - with further players rumoured to be departing. Among those who have left QPR: Dominic Shimmin, Marc Nygaard, Marcus Bignot, Danny Cullip, Nick Ward, Shabbaz Baidoo, Daniel Nardiello, John Curtiss, Steffan Moore, Pat Kanyuka, Kieron St. Aimie. Also: Loans Ben Sahar, Malcolm, Jarrett and Scott Sinclair have returned to their clubs

Others released in the Past Year
A year ago, QPR saw a number of players depart in the weeks leading up to the January transfer window closing: Adam Czerkas, Ian Evatt, Egutu Oliseh, Ugo Ukah (again), Scott Donnelly, Matthew Hislop, Matthew Rose, Jonathan Munday. In addition Tommy Doherty, Sean Thomas and Kevin Gallen went out on loan till the end of the season. After the window closed, Dean Parrett moved to Spurs. And in the summer, Lee Cook of course was sold to Fulham.
At the end of the season, Marc Bircham, Paul Furlong, Kevin Gallen, Paul Jones, Steve Lomas, Mauro Milanese, Simon Royce and Armel Tchakounte were all given free transfers.
