Yep, he'll play. I'm surprised at his lack of opportunity at Bolton this year. He did alright last season.

Scored twice for us last season, Kept getting riddled with injuries.
We wanted to see him partner Davo upfront in the second half of the season, certainly wanted him over Rasiak anyway! This season we have Smolarek on the bench giving Helguson no chance esepecially when Megson started using Vaz Te for a couple of appearences...
Hope he manages to stay match fit now though

3-0 to Twatford, thats what happens when your owner picks the team instead of letting your manager do it. Briatore might know Formula One but he knows f**k all about football. Please Mr Mattel, buy him out! Lonegunmen2008-11-24 11:01:40

Paulo Sousa?
 
Where did that appointment come from?
One of my all time great players, was awesome when playing for Juve..
 
No managerial experience, no English football experience.. seems very strange..

No one saw it coming but Briatore fancies himself as team selector. Too much money and is dillusional me thinks.

Our Heider made a runner?

Back at the Reebok according to the Bolton Evening News.

A change of mind it seems..

Apparently it was over money, what the club had agreed to pay him on loan and what he wanted were written down incorrectly on the contract, so he packed a sad and his bags.
 
2-1 win over Charlton this morning, Dexter Blackstock with 2 more taking his tally to 9 for the season so far.

Bolton striker Heidar Helguson finally signed for QPR on loan yesterday after a switch to Charlton stalled.

The forward agreed a deal until January 1 when both parties will decide on a permanent move. Helguson's move to Rangers had twice fallen through in disputes over fitness, wages and the length of the loan contract.

Sounds like he's coming to the club for all the right reasons!

Ha finally, hopefully he does enough to convince you guys to buy him off us.

He is wasting his time with us, he'll never get the chances under Megson.

Your a rich club, but i'd settle for half of what we got him for, 1 mil please.

Rs vs Wolves this weekend. Wonder which Rs side will turn up?
Could this be the start of Wolves slide down the table?

0-0 at Halftime, is a late KO so I am listening to it now. We're all over Wolves without scoring (Sounds familiar). Should have been 2-0 up after 4 mins.

Pretty useful first half from us. At least 3 very good chances. Converted none. B*gger! The lack of a "Kevin Phillips" is still haunting us and costing us points.

Well, well, well. A good performance and a top result against the leaders. Perhaps there is hope yet after all eh Lonegunmen? Are there any rumours of signings for the approaching transfer window (particularly proven goalscorers)?

Rowlands goal was an absolute screamer, good hard fought win by the QPR Boys this morning over Wolves.
07 Dec 01:04 · edited 09 Sep 05:03
Yes, cant wait to see the video on that goal!!
 
Rumours? zizoustainrod? Click here for the latest in rumours! A couple there, a winger and a midfeilder- still no striker that we desperately need. Dex went off early with an injury.

Listened to the Owls match on World and we were well in it. Helguson should have scored and Rowlands had a penalty saved. We are playing well defensively, Cerny is in form and we are creating chances. Unfortunately I think this will be our lot for the rest of the season (conceed few goals, have the majority of possession, unable to take chances) unless we can sign a goalscorer.

yep, thats how i heard it too. Even the commentator seemed amazed that they didn't score.
 
solution = a young fella at Arsenal - Ngog. A goal machine!!

3-2 over preston, Dex scored his 10th and Helgusson nails two - thats 3 in two games. Must have found his feet - cool. 9th but caught up on points and we're in the zone almost.

Christmas time at QPR, we're gifting points. dropped 4 in two games which we should ave won. Sousa is waiting for Jan 1st then buying. Wayne Routledge is a top target and not the only one.

You guys just brought Heidar Helguson from Bolton. Happy or not happy?
03 Jan 01:36 · edited 09 Sep 05:03
Very happy, 3 goals in two games! We have also signed former Coventry Left Full Back borrowdale which has not impressed and we have just signed Wayne Routledge from under Cardiff city's noses! A good winger that will help Helguson score even more.

Lee Cook has re-signed for 3 1/2 years, Tomasi has been released, Leigertwood has been targgeted by several clubs, Camp is back from Forest, Bolder back from Millwall although Millwall want to sign him. Dexter is about to sign a 3 1/2 year deal.

This mornings result (1-all @ home to Coventry) is a very disappointing result for the Rs. More shots on goal but couldn't find the net AND playing vs 10 mean after 65 mins. That will count as another game that got away. Time is running out...they must start scoring goals and making a charge.

3 points off the plyoffs. A much needed (and very rare) away victory though. Sousa badly needed that. Hopefully this is the start of a roll on...? Terrible injury to captain Rowlands, hope this doesn't affect the team. Miller might have to come in straight away? Any other transfer rumours before the end of January? I've heard that the Rs are after the Southampton goalie....strange move imo.

That Goalie is 32 year old Kelvin Davis. Cash strapped Saints cant afford to keep him.
 
Bolton & Wolves are after Legs of Wood.
 
We're interested in Leroy lita (Again)
