http://www1.skysports.com/news/11095/8546060/ Queens Park Rangers striker Jay Bothroyd is hoping to keep his place in the side after admitting he thought his career at the club could be over. The 30 year-old looked to be heading for the Loftus Road exits last summer, when the then R's boss Mark Hughes did not give Bothroyd a squad number, and was forced to train with the reserves. However, after returning from an unsuccessful loan spell at Sheffield Wednesday he was thrust into the first-team due to Bobby Zamora's ongoing injury problems. "I thought I may not play for the club again," he told the Fulham Chronicle. "It was tough mentally, but I stayed strong and always believed in myself." The former Perugia forward could keep his place for Saturday's crucial clash with Sunderland after netting the winner at Southampton last weekend, and is fully committed to the cause. "When I came back to QPR Harry gave me a chance," he added. "I just want to do my best for QPR and help keep us up." please log in to view this image
I'm not a big fan but if he sticks the ball in the net I could live with that although he's possibly the laziest player I've seen in a Hooped shirt
ha ha I agree with you. If he keeps scoring, I won't complain either. Can see him starting tomorrow ahead of Zamora.
Played well and scored a goal last time out, has to be picked for tomorrow. Keep it up Betty and prove your critics wrong including me.
Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't we have a player called Cisse, who wasn't terribly active even at the sr=tart (but admittedly scored some v v important goals) and towards the end was uninterested as well as down right the laziest player I have ever seen. Betty is positivity Billy Wizz in comparison
Don't think he's the answer to our problem of goals personally, he shinned that in against Southampton!
Clive's knee or was it thigh got us from the semi at Highbury against WBA to the Cup final in 82, and he was one of the best stikers we ever had. So if Betty scores withn his shin or his left buttock, whatever he's moving in the right direction
