canarydan23 4,060 Posted February 23 Doesn't appear as straightforward as that. QPR have released a statement saying the legal process isn't concluded and he remains in England and eligible to play for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,283 Posted February 23 Slung a rock rather than pummelled the guy's head in. Strange state of affairs as it seems a trial has been going on without him being there and now has a right to appeal. It happened 4 years ago so at this rate will probably be available to play most of their games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, won't be out of football for long. Might put off some suitors though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
