Yeh, QPR were always big spenders in the last throws of this window too, weren't they? 
I'm not saying we didn't need at least 1 creative soul coming in, because of the injuries we've now got, but IMO, generally this is a crap time to panic buy and bring more than 1 or 2 in; players very rarely gel instantly and for struggling clubs it's hardly ever the answer.
It'll be interesting to see how Newcastle fare in the next month or so. Spending like they have, in their position, is a huge gamble...
