On/off beckford saga....

£3m + add-ons

I have to agree, you might be posting what you have heard, fair point, but DJ Campbell, Beckford, Lita, and others over the last few years that I can't be arsed to remember have been tared with the same brush.

I have never heard this said about any white player signed, Buzz was a loose canon at Plymouth, Gorkks demanded a move from Blackpool, when Borrowdale wasn't picked no one suggested he had a chip on his shoulder they just seeked out the truth of the situation, Ben Watson refused to sign a contract just like Lita did, he isn't acussed of the "chip".

Thinking about it, it might not be racism more like lazy writing, it easy to write, but it's very boring.

[Yousef]

Well there is still possibility that Beckford will be disappointing in the Premier League just like disappointing David Nugent.

[geejaybee]

The main point of your thread is that according to you and your source the club do not/will not take beckford as he is a disruptive influence.

everytime i look on here and a black player is even linked to qpr, someone comes on here making out the player has a attitude problem/chip on his shoulder/will disrupt the dressing room etc. I have never ever seen on this site any white player linked to qpr where the same references are made to them.

so to me colour has a lot to do with what you just wrote. hopefully one day we will have just 1 black player linked to the club who is not going to destroy it.

Before beckford it was lita, has lita destroyed Middlesborough yet? Will beckford destroy bolton if he goes there?? what you need to do is tell your source he talks s**t, and then dont post the rubbish you've heard on the internet.

I'll reiterate - there was no reference or even a hint in my original thread of colour or racism.You've chosen to make it so and I'm a little surprised to see that others including the previously helpful ScottJones agreeing with you.I've supported a Beckford deal all along and purely reported a comment that was made within the club.Its nothing to do with colour,some prima donna white players can be equally as disruptive,and as I said before, JB's alledged disruptive ways don't appear to have adversely affected Leeds 100% start to the season.In fact the reverse is true.

[ScottJones]

i think we're all getting our wires crossed!

[Robbo]

David Bentley has an attitude problem, and John Fashanu was a thug.

[californiahoop]

As I said, " you are reporting what you have heard" so I have no problem with that!

Get over yourself fella, we signed Jay Simpson the other day and there was no one here saying he would be disruptive, oh and Lita is a knob regardless of colour.

[AscotR's]

if QPR tried to sign Lee Bowyer/Joey Barton im sure people will quite rightfully suggest they have an attitude problem.

If QPR tried to sign Thierry Henry/Patrick Vieria im sure no one would say they have an attitude problem.

Some common sense at long last!!.....This thread had nothing to do with colour, just about someone who has been reported as being disruptive. Black, White, Yellow or Purple with pink spots - it doesn't matter!! Hope we go in for Ben Thatcher.....Vinny Jones was probably the biggest plank ever to play for QPR but that doesn't mean that I have anything against the Welsh.

[LOOPYHOOP]

Beckford isn't coming,FACT!

[Mutley]

yet another black player with an attitude/disruptive poblem.

will we ever see a black player linked to qpr who dosent have an attitude problem that is going destroy such a tight knit club???

when will these *****s stop posting such racist rubbish about people why dont even know???

we dont deserve beckford.

Time of the month?

The biggest load of codswallop i think i have ever read on a MB. Absolutlely nothing to do with the thread and no substance at all.

This board has faults like any other, but racism isnt one of them.


Geejay, if you read Scotts post properly, you will find he was agreeing with you.

[paulmason]

Mutley - Scott was not agreeing with the original post at all as he quoted and agreed with highgradeR post that it was tinged with racisim when it was not.

They werent great ambassadors for QPR were they? they werent some of the best players ever at QPR over the last decade or so were they?

Don't think Scott is against you geejaybee!... Think he was being sarcastic!

highgradeR - No one on this board has ever referenced a persons the skin colour when discussing players until now. You are the only person in recent times who has brought race into a discussion to my knowledge so don't try and twist it! This board does not tolerate rascism in any form so please choose you words carefully in the future.
