Palmer delighted with moveNEW QPR signing Steve Palmer found the persuasive powers of Ian Holloway and Kenny Jackett to difficult to turn down when he spoke to the duo about a move to Loftus Road. The defender, who signed from Watford on Tuesday, has started training with his new team and is relishing the challenge of pulling on the QPR shirt - and working with Holloway and Jackett. He said: "Obviously, Kenny is somebody I know really well from my time at Watford. I know Ian as well, I used to play against him. I was very impressed with Ian's ideas and his plans for the club when I met him. Both of them together were very persuasive when I was thinking about joining." Although 33, Cambridge-graduate Palmer wants to continue playing for another five years. "That's all my focus is on at the moment," he said. "The move has happened very quickly and I'm really looking forward to the challenge. I have just finished my UEFA A grade coaching licence and I have worked with the Academy youngsters at Watford, but my main aim at the minute is to play for QPR." Palmer played a pivotal role in Watford's back-to-back promotions from Division 2 to the Premiership and wants to try and repeat it with QPR. He said: "Naturally this is something I want to repeat with QPR. It was a fantastic time to be involved with a football club and something that I want to be involved with again. I've already visited Loftus Road this season and the pitch looks brilliant. We have a great pre-season programme and I can't wait to get out on to the field and pull on a QPR shirt." qprreport.proboards.com/thread/13999/decade-flashback-jackett-palmer-joins#ixzz2xWGcVmsV
