    No idea how much truth there is to it but seeing it rumoured this morning that Glenn Murray is off to QPR on loan, Bonne might find himself even further down the pecking order
    Thought he’d retired to be honest. He must be close to, if not already, 40.

    I never mentioned before  this but I heard a wicked whisper back when he was playing for us....

    When Macca got called up to Zimbabwe he was unavailable because he was unfortunately having checks on his heart wasn't he....

    well...I understand this is not quite the case.  His agent got in his ear and stated he wold be better off declaring for England....

    I can't confirm or deny this obviously but that's what I heard.  Funny if true
    No idea if its true or not but him and his missus seemed pretty upset and worried about it at the time from the posts on instagram etc. I highly doubt anyone would have it in them to lie about something as serious as that. I can imagine scumbag agents suggesting it but I cant see it happening.
  • His confidence has gone completely.
  • Needs to go out on loan to a League One team.

    He's lining up for Rochdale on Tuesday night ;)

    Fuck right off

    At Orient he was good until he hit a dry spell. But that was the conference.

    2 million for Bonne was daylight robbery. I can’t believe some people thought we should keep him.

    He'll be chomping at the bit to come back and be thrown under the bus  ;)

    That’s why stats are no good. Yes he had a decent goal scoring record in the championship for us last season but QPR obviously didn’t watch him play enough to see how shit he actually is.

    Dont think we are in any position to take the piss, seen fans on twitter laughing at his miss today, and thought we have won 1 in the last 6 and are in the relegation zone in the form guide and struggling to score goals, we really are in no position to laugh

    Forwards especially thrive on confidence, hence some players are quite streaky, they keep scoring when confident, but then keep snatching at chances when struggling
  • Bonnie did okay for us last season. His confidence seems completely gone at QPR.

    Not the only huge chance he missed today either.
  • Looks like Charlie Austin has signed for QPR on loan

    Like I said, nice to do someone over this time. We have always been soft touches, virtually a registered charity.

    Tbf I think all they were expecting was a decent player, and that's why they're disappointed

    £2m. 😂😂😂😂😂
  • I hope Bonne rediscover his confidence - it must be difficult to be on the end of so much criticism.

    Ive watched the highlights and though dykes miss was much worse 
  • Its another reason why he should have stayed at Charlton

    Bowyer knew he was inexperienced from League One and often admitted he was treating Bonne as a personal project. Whilst he'd call him out after games I can imagine Bowyer kept working with him in training to try and improve as a Striker

    Wonder if he's getting that sort of help at QPR now

    Strikers at that level shouldnt need one to one training, it should be instinct and whilst Warburton is a very good Manager; Bowyer is surely good to learn from in that aspect as he's someone who has played the game at the highest level

    Pretty amazing to miss so badly. Dykes and Bonne are both misfiring.
