Fans on Twitter react to news QPR still want Hoilett
QPR fans on Twitter gave a mixed response to news that Rangers are still hoping Junior Hoilett will return to the club.
The winger is a free agent, having so far failed to secure the top-flight move he has been looking for since rejecting a new contract at Loftus Road.
Director of football Les Ferdinand said this week that the door is still open for Hoilett and that Rangers would like him to return.
And some supporters would also be happy to welcome him back, although some feel it should only be on significantly reduced wages.
This makes me happy https://t.co/xZHXtY7zR9

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport Yep – why not. He would add to the squad. That’s what we are looking for. Anyone to improve what we have.

I know I’m on my own but I’d take him back in a heart beat. Can be very good at this level https://t.co/Qe9hkIJweR

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport yep no brainer …. Championship experienced player exactly what we need …

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport Yes. QPR not blessed with width considering JFH’s preferred formation. Would need to be reasonable wages.

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport yeah at £20l a week tops

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport I like him and would love him to stay!

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport yes on reduced wages

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport definitely, although would have to come in on reduced wages

@QPRforum @WestLondonSport I’d take him back. JFH seemed to be getting the best out of him, be shame to waste 4 years work

However, other Rangers fans made it clear they would not be favour of Hoilett returning.
No way… He can do one!! https://t.co/vVywNKYMDX

Personally I still wouldn’t take him back with his attitude – not the sort of mentality we’re looking for as a club. https://t.co/uW3UAwCyyx

@WestLondonSport Hmm. Only players who want to be here please. Rather watch 100% passion and slightly less ability then vice versa.

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport Top player on his day but I’m happy to move on and leave the past exactly where it belongs.

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport If he’s not already committed and needs persuading doesn’t bode well for his attitude going forward!

“I cant believe he doesn’t want to get back in so we’ll keep knocking on the door.” Sounds like a reason to close it https://t.co/TWFD45IBzF

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport why would anyone want a player who was holding out for another club? That failed, now were his 2nd option

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport seriously, we have brought two wingers, we have two young wingers plus Gladwin and El Khayati, why?

@WestLondonSport no thanks

@WestLondonSport Too expensive, too erratic, too little, too late, toodleoo!

@davidmcintyre76 @WestLondonSport It would show the people who run the club have learnt nothing

Waste of time.Given the club nothing for 4 years, the perfect example of a footballer STEALING a wage.Jimmy has brought in some promising,young, ambitious wide men who actually WANT to play for us.I understand Ferdinands statement as he doesn’t have a clue but anyone who can’t see how crap Hoilett has been since arriving is in the wrong job.Please don’t take this leach back under any circumstances

QPR FAUTHFUL ARE CORRECT.
HE DOES NOT WANT TO BE WITH QPR HE THINKS A PREMIERSHIP TEAM WILL WANT HIM.
NO ONE WANTS HIM BECAUSE COMMITTMENT IS KEY AND QPR AND THEIR DIRECTORS HAVE SEEN FOR OURSELVES PLAYERS WHO LACK ANY PRIDE AND PASSION. I DONT KNOW HOW QPR WILL DO THIS SEASON BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO BUILD A NEW COMMITTED TEAM.
MORRISON MAY ADD A LITTLE FLAIR WHICH COULD HELP.
THE TEAM WITH CAULKER AND SANDRO COULD HAVE THE BACKBONE AND BALANCE.
THE TEAM GATHERED LOOKS LIKE IT WILL DO WELL LET US HOPE SO.

We want players that want to play for us & that shirt.
great player on his day but choose not to re sign.so sorry .all the greedy players that mark hughes brought in have finally gone thankfully which set us back a good few years.so good ridance lets move on no player is bigger than QRR.
we are moveing forward to the future & dave did.nt want to be part of that future.

I wouldn’t have him back.
A contract was offered to him, he rejected thinking that he was better than us, he left and then un-surprisingly no-one wants him!
08/09/2016 @ 1:25 pm
Think you need to really want to play for QPR !!! that now looks suspect, so rather take a chance and use the wages on Morrison ??
