Peter Ramage to Loftus road?

New rumour that QPR will sign Newcastle defender Peter Ramage for about a million in the summer. He is just coming back from injury and the club sent a scout to check him out in Newcastle's reserve fixture against Bolton on Tuesday.

He is 24 years old and is known as a versatile defender who can play in several positions but prefers to be used as a centre half. He has made 50 appearances for the toon army.

Looks like this transfer could go ahead wih him and Stephen Carr coming from Newcastle. They will certainly add strength to the squad but i am not beyond doubt they would get in the 11 at the minute. Fitz and Connely look a decent centre half pairing and i would prefer to see Delaney or Manciene than Carr at full back. However, if they do come it will undoubtedly add to the competition for places and mean we have a stronger group of players to call upon so that we wouldn't need to use Barker, Stewart and Rehman any more.
