The shame of Queens Park Rangers FC

[BennyBoyRs]

Jesus Joe, I hear you mate, but who's said he's joining?

We've been linked to literally hundreds of players over the past two years, and we haven't signed a fraction of them.

I don't think many, including myself want him here mate, but it won't stop me going.

Anyway, I can't see this happening at all as we don't need anything else showing this club in a bad light.

Forbes was on a rape charge long after he left Rangers

The case was dropped as there was no evidence. I think I remember reading somewhere the girl made it all up. I always siad Forbes has the touch of a rapist, but never meant for him to try and prove me right!

[Spencer]

I agree mate. I certainly don't want him. The same could be said of Shaun Derry who allegedly made a racist comment towards Chopra at Palace last season.
Paddy Kenny has been done for taking performance enhancing drugs.



We had Terrell Forbes at one stage who was on a charge of rape.


We have had a few colourful characters over the years down the Rangers.

I suppose that puts us out of the running for signing Chopra then !!

Having listened to Neil Warnock on last weeks 'Radio 5 Live' talking about all aspects of the coming season, it was interesting to hear his comments on the release of Marlon King from prison .... I'm sure Neils comments have been well documented.
Now correct me if I'm wrong, our club Queens Park Rangers promote the family enviroment and, I'd say, do it very well like the recent 'family fun-day' at Loftus Road. I love the fact that the face of football, be it expensive, is on the whole a safe place for children and women to come and watch the beautiful game - Far from the days of the late 60's and early 70's when I first started supporting The R's ..... the violence on the terraces blah blah, you know where I'm coming from here!

The point I wish to make is about the potential signing of Marlon King!!!
For me, it goes againts the grain of everything that QPR FC stands for, including Daphne Biggs, Jim Gregory, Ray Jones, Dave Clement, Tony Ingham who've represented Rangers as players and internal staff ... and the many decent QPR supporters like Fred Perry, Steve Edwards, Dougie Soar and Paul Gooch, to mention just a few of the loyal QPR fans, and people, who are no longer with us.

Marlon King has a list of offences against him longer than your arm, it's not JUST the last offence that got him the prison sentence, whereby he'd smashed in the face of a young lady who resisted him ..... oh no! This man has a string of assaults and sexual crimes againts women going back years and years ..... plus, Marlon King will be registered on the sex-offenders list for the next ten years, and that's a fact!

I could go on and on - The be all and end all for me is ...... I DONT WANT MARLON KING REPRESENTING QUEENS PARK RANGERS!!

GROW UP. we are buying a player not electing a POPE!

GROW UP. we are buying a player not electing a POPE!

I read this thread and thought we signed him, as far as I know he was not coming and think nothing has changed.

[Jeffro]

Joe if King did sign all be it against your wishes, and king started playing and playing well, scoring for fun, and QPR are on the crest of a wave; I simply cannot sit here and believe that you would not celebrate his goals and QPR's success.

If QPR win, we are all happy, if King is getting the goals, so be it. I dont like him, wouldnt conduct myself as he does, but if he scores for my team, then I'm happy.

We already have people who lie under oath in court at our club and as others have put; previous and current players arent whiter than white.

Tell me Im wrong.

[W10 RANGER]

Tell me Im wrong.

Your wrong then

GROW UP. we are buying a player not electing a POPE!

Do I want my little boy hero worshipping this man? I don't think so, also I just can't see the Indians allowing this signing to happen whatever Warnock wants

noone ever tell you that you can overcook a gag?

Football players are people...often dumb ones. They make mistakes and pay the punishments.

Legally, he will have served his time and is entitled to seek employment. All this family club rubbish makes me laugh. Often comes from the same people that talk about the hoolies like they are super cool dudes. Laughable.

There are many examples of football players that do bad things, both playing now and in the past. Where do you draw the line?

Football players are only that. They are not role models for your children or mine. They are sportsman earning a living. If we sign him and you don't want to come to the match don't come. If he scores goals - don't cheer.

Amazing how so many people like George Best who was a wife beater and many others because they are seen as a bit cool.

[Ginger Ninja]

Legally, he will have served his time

no he hasn't

No truth at all that Marlon is covering Smack my Bi tch up although is in talks with PWL records.

[Loneranger80]
