| Rafferty Pedder on 15:43 - Mar 10 by RBlock | He's had a bad injury this season which obviously impacted first team chances/loan opportunities, but before that he had 4g in 6 starts, and 6gs in 7 starts last season. Issue again is that he's 21 which is pretty old for U21s football. |
Had 2 loan spells last season, firstly at Southend in the National League, and then dropped down a level to National League South to Oxford City last year. Didn't pull up trees at either. A handful of substitute appearances for both, no goals. Started out with us as a centre back if I recall correctly. Stands out for his size, a giant at 6"6. Had a poor first touch when I've seen him. I'd be pleasantly surprised if that has improved to championship level. But he has the size and aerial ability that Ainsworth tends to like, so might be able to get a tune out of him. Certainly amongst the goals in our 21s this year. |  | |  |

He certainly looks a unit. Whether he has the skills to make an impact in the Championship would be better assessed by people who have watched him often |  |

Very true. |  | |  |

Paul Parker may not have had the stature, but by god he had the talent.First time I saw him play for Fulham...my jaw dropped. How could a guy this size be a centre- half( showing my age here)?It was one of the happiest days of my QPR younger supporting days, when I was there to see his debut at West Ham. We will never see his like again in modern football. |  | |  |

Is that his real name? Wow, with a name like that he should be in the team! |  | |  |

He also had something our entire team currently lacks. Pace. My favourite defender when I was a kid, loved watching him out jump John Fashanu when Wimbledon visited. |  |

| Rafferty Pedder on 07:39 - Mar 11 with 837 views | DWQPR | It seems that another of the clubs policies of picking up unpolished diamonds from other clubs seems to be picking up unpolished turds instead. I am shocked about the ages of these so called kids. They are grown men whereby quite frankly their ships have sailed. Get rid of them at the end of the season along with the academy staff and start again. If Pedder is too lightweight which I cannot for the life of me believe as footballers come in all shapes and sizes then get him in the gym and bulk him up. From what I’ve seen he has a good football brain and that is the key to success which any amount of height, muscle and brawn cannot substitute. |  |

| Rafferty Pedder on 10:24 - Mar 10 by terryb | I can't recall Lee Cook having much weight on him. Not that I'm comparing the two players ability! Never mind his physique, if he can create, that will do for me. |
Loved Lee Cook. But, if he had any weight, it might have been around the middle? |  | |  |
| Rafferty Pedder on 08:18 - Mar 11 with 781 views | Metallica_Hoop | Give him a go, people said Crouch was lightweight aged 19? and he was our best player that season, though I remember him getting some stick but our fans have a tendancy to have a go tall players for some reason. Heightists |  |

| Rafferty Pedder on 11:03 - Mar 11 with 610 views | stanistheman | Pedder may be lightweight but he can’t be any worse than some of the others on the bench. Put him in the squad and on the pitch at some point and let’s see if he is worth keeping for next season. |  | |  |
