Played ok. One good through ball. A few mistakes. Nice gesture at full time. Applauded all four stands. Patted his heart then clapped Ellerslie Road stand.
Yep. As expected a very warm reception at kick off. A few boos when he won fouls for Burnley and once where he took the ball flush in the face and stayed down forcing the ref to blow for a head injury whilst we were in a promising position. As I shouted at the time 'play on ref - he's fine - he's laid there tweeting!'
Sorry, been at work all f-ing day so catching up so this! What sort of reception did Joey get. I guess by what I read on this forum 50% booing/ 50% clap your hands and say yes! A real marmite one is Bartonberry!
Cheers Mr 9's! Whatever we all think of Joey I was hoping he would not walk away from this game feeling bitter towards us
Why? Apart from you obviously being a nice bloke. I would have thought £70k a week for 4 years including a free one in France would be enough to make him feel warm and cuddly about QPR. Nearly £15m.
Fair play Stan, I know your feelings about Barton plus would not argue with you mate. Let's just go with the nice bloke part, that works for me
So anyway, Joey did not get the reception you would have liked Stan, death by firing squad Yes I will get my coat now
I'm also sorry about my poor spelling. I meant death by fiery squid but I'm sure you all got it anyway...
i think overall it has to be a mistake we signed him Him coming in while talented players were on a fifth of his money was very poor. He told the world he was on big money and that we didn't have any good players ... I won't forget that
I was stunned/disappointed how good a reception he got. Hopefully BZ's will be even better, but it would be difficult.
I reckon OBZ will get a rendition of "Oh Bobby Zamora" before kick off and a kind of hero's welcome because lets face it he did give us a moment that will live in the memory for a life time despite being incapable of playing a full game during 4 years with us and earning a very tidy sum in wages....... All together.....Oh Bobby Zamora.....
