Heidars goal scoring boots against Chelski just raised 600+ pounds for the Tiger cubs Downs syndrome kids team.

Good. He's a c**t.

Never a dull moment round Loftus Road. Barton suspended, Faurlin out for the season, Warnock sacked, Huge (and unrealistic !?) expectations regarding new manager and January transfers........ aaahhh the QPR we all know and love is alive and well.

Sad to see Warnock go. I blame the players myself for the piss poor results. Barton spends more time tweeting than playing well, SWP runs around like a headless chicken all the time without achieving anything. DJ & Bothroyd couldn't score in a brothel, Gabbiadon is more interested in wanting to play for Cardiff. Fitz Hall has hamstrings like spaghetti - play one game injured for 3.

Sadly, the only revelation this season has be Faurlin and his season is now over - ACL. Young has been a great signing, Traore has done ok. Ferdinand has been ok but the John Terry incident has been a distraction for him. Taarabt has more "advisors" and President Obama and is clearly distracted by them.

Hughes? t**ser but it will be interesting. Hughes V Barton - Who'll get the first punch in?

How is Joey going at the club LG?
 
I used to detest him when he was one of the B bad boys at Toon (Bowyer, Bellamy, Barton).  But in the last couple of seasons I thought he had matured considerably and was quite an asset to the club (so much so that Cashley and Llambias had to give him away to you).
 
I think non-Toon fans still don't like him but that's just their ill-informed opinion!

Barton thus far has done nothing to justify his reputed 80 p/w. Having seen most games, I would have him on 8k p/w. Still getting mixed up on on field bullsh*t, although his red card was as a result of blatant cheating and theatrics. I'm sure a sniper nail the player and clearly one could see no contact from Barton at all.

Joey is a legend in his own mind, seeming more intent on slagging alleged celebs off on twitter than concentrating on being a proud Captain of QPR and representing the club in a positive image. I was hoping Mark Hughes would take the captaincey from him but alas he has not.

That's a shame. Seems like you can take the player out of Toon but you can't take the Toon out of the player.

Just ask Carroll.

Never liked Warnock, but did not deserve this shameful treatment... what else did he have to do to prove himself?

Has Taiwo been confirmed yet? I hope he does well at QPR
01 Feb 06:17 · edited 09 Sep 05:03
Damn, only signed Bobby Zamora, Djibril Cisse, Samba Diakite (Loan), Nedum Onuoha, Taye Taiwo (Loan), Federico Macheda (Loan).

Hopefully our defence is now sorted and Helguson gets some help up front.

Never thought he really got going at Liverpool, due to Rafa and injuries. I hope he does well at QPR.

Same here, I've always thought he was a decent striker but he really struggled at Lazio.

nice goal for sure but we should not have let those two goals in. Still a point is better than no points.

Saw Cisse on MTV's 'Cribs' at his place in Morocco. He didn't come across as as much of a nutbar as I thought he might (based on haircuts mostly). Samir Nasri was hanging out in his pool.

...this doesn't have anything to do with anything...

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

Just watched the Four Year Plan doco. Some excellent behind the scenes stuff. Good story.

Haven't seen it yet but am told that what you see is what our manager/s have had to put up with. Briatore being and egotistical twat and Paladini just as bad. How Warnock got us promoted is shown to be even more amazing. Sousa was shafted because of those two's ego.

That Ecclestone, Briatrore and Paladini have left the club has been a real blessing.

Ok so we might not of gotten anything from the game had the off side been called but ....3 points lost before the game had really started. QPR spent the rest of the game with 10 men.



This disallowed goal because the ball 'hadn't crossed over the line' cost QPR 3 points. Up until this point of the game, QPR were all over Bolton - fellow strugglers.

Yeah every team gets the odd bad decision.

If you go down you deserve to. And i hope you do.

And i hope yours misses out on a Champions league final this season - oopps they already have.

Question for normal rational people: How the f**k did Sean Wright-Phillips get to be a professional footballer? All season long he's been nothing short of dog turd or as i affectionately call him - The Headless chicken. Lots of running and nothing to show for it.

Seen you on the motorway on anzac day LG, never seen your car before but knew it was you from so far away, said to my car occupants "I reckon that's LG from yellow fever, has to be" then pulled past and recognised you from the row above the daniel's fan club banner

number plate = impressive! did you have to buy that off someone or was it available?

The movie never really got off to a good start and the ship's captain didn't get a better job offer 2/3 of the way through the voyage.

And the ship's engine room master wasn't tapped up by a rival shipping line at the start...

Liverpool would be more Titanic

Spurs being a more modest club is better represented as:

But you can't make such a good portmanteau of Liverpool and Titanic.  My best is "Liverpanic", which is oddly appropriate but might not get the right idea across.
 
One presumes that Newcastle is something like:

By the way, this discussion is on-topic because Joey Barton.

Nobody forced you to sign him.
