    QPRSacked Chelsea youngster Mellis handed chance by QPR


    04/04/2012
    by David McIntyre
    Midfielder Jacob Mellis, recently sacked by Chelsea, has been handed a trial by QPR.

    Mellis, who spent last week with Championship side Burnley, was dismissed by the Blues after admitting setting off a smoke grenade in a prank at the club’s Cobham training ground last month.

    The 21-year-old played for Rangers’ reserves in a game against West Ham on Tuesday and scored their goal in a 2-1 defeat.

    Strikers Heidar Helguson and DJ Campbell also featured in the match as part of their respective comebacks from injury.

    He's a decent player but definitely has disciplinary problems

    Dunno - a smoke grenade at the scum's training ground sounds like he's got the right attitude!!

    He didn't shoot anyone, did he? I thought guns were more the vogue at the Chelsea training ground.

    Seriously do we need another loose cannon in the team? Discipline has been our 'downfall'.

    As already mentioned I don't know how he gets sacked for a smoke bomb prank but Cashley shoots someone with an airgun and gets away with it!

    Add him to the list of players we have that nobody else wanted.
    He should fit right in.

    I doubt it was a first offence, but in any case, Cashley could afford a good legal team if they'd sacked him and Mellis wasn't a first team regular.
