      1 year with a further year suspended seems like a relatively light sentence. But at least unlike most footballers who commit crimes he is going to prison, rather than it just costing them hush money.

      Rare in this day and age that something like this was kept under wraps.

      Genuinely stunned by that

      I just … absolutely no words. Only hope is that we stop paying his wages and can bring in a free agent or two.

      Most QPR thing ever. The day before crucial relegation battle, lose one of the side’s best players because he brained a lorry driver. I hope the driver’s road to recovery is swift.

      This is mental, he was flying last season was surprised he didn’t get a premier league move but makes sense now!

      Seems a very light sentence for what sounds like a horrible crime. Definitely not good for QPR though given his influence lately, and just as they were looking likely to escape the bottom three any moment.

      What the fuck? Nasty cunt.

      As further punishment, his last goal for the club should be taken away and the game’s scoreline adjusted accordingly. It’s the right thing to do.

      Fuck man, heard rumors of this but didn’t know much. Glad that he’s facing actual consequences unlike most footballers but it’s frank that we are in trouble without him which shouldn’t be at the front of my mind but is sadly.

      Thoughts with the driver.

      Holy shit, wtf brings someone to do something like that? Maniac. Fook off outta our divvy.

      Imagine deliberately caving in somebody’s skull and getting a year / 6 months.

      Fuck this country.

      What a horrible man! I guess the club will have to sack him and somehow patch the gap left behind l. Hopefully the victim will return to full health, but it sounds like a really nasty injury.

      I’ve done a little more reading around, and I don’t believe this is the final verdict.

      QPR’s statement is that they have no statement as the proceeding has yet to reach its conclusion.

      The Sun has also amended their article and said that Chair is appealing the decision, is back in the UK and is free to play for QPR.

      That’s crazy. I always wondered how QPR kept hold of Chair for so long.

      That’s QPR really fucked then

      It supposedly happened in France, the French decided no crime had been committed.

      The Belgians decided to have a trial in Belgium instead because allegedly the victim was Belgian. That’s not how law works. It was out of their jurisdiction.

      No way does this stand up to an EU court. You cannot try someone in your own country because another country decides there was no case to answer.
