on JANUARY 27, 2012 · in SPORTS QPR have issued a warning to fans about offensive chanting this weekend â just hours after signing a player who was banned for singing a homophobic song last year. AC Milan left-back Taye Taiwo agreed to join the Hoops on loan for the rest of the season. QPR hope the Nigerian will receive international clearance in time to make his debut in the FA Cup showdown with rivals Chelsea on Saturday. Both clubs yesterday appealed for fans to watch what they chant during the fourth-round tie. The match takes place just four days before Blues skipper John Terry appears in court to answer a charge he allegedly racially abused QPRâs Anton Ferdinand during Octoberâs fiery Prem clash â a claim JT denies. If Taiwo plays, he will have to behave better than he did after scoring the winner to help Marseille beat Montpellier 1-0 in the French League Cup final last April. Following the final whistle he grabbed a microphone and led fans in an expletive-ridden homophobic song about their bitter rivals Paris St Germain. French chiefs fined him £17,000 and banned Taiwo, 26, for one game. The FA Cup tie will be the first time the sides have met since the Terry-Ferdinand row broke. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/01/taye-taiwo-in-gay-chant-rap/? Oh do behave Taye. Seriously, please behave
He was playing for OM and the song was directed against PSG. OM has far left support and PSG far right. Probably this may have been an underlying issue here. Homophobia is wrong, there many other ways to insult fascist c*nts.
Why bother posting that and drawing peoples attention to a year old incident. Telling the guy to behave, get a life ffs
Why are the clubs telling us to behave. We didn't misbehave last time, maybe all their warnings should be aimed at the Chelsea players.
To be put in the sam bracket as those misbehaving scum supporters is quite frankly annoying. Re the OP. This was news to me, and personally i rather recieve this kind of information on a QPR site instead of getting it from say a smug scum supporter. This is just sad and I hope this isn't used against him by opposing supporters. It's a clean slate for him, lets give him the benefit of doubt as I'm sure he's learned his lesson.
Of course highlighting it on here will ensure opposing supporters don't mention it. You have just said exactly what I was saying, leave the guy alone
Agreed Norway, I'm sure QPR would of spelled this out to him when he signed. As Liverpool should of done regarding Suarez.
