‘I love it’, ‘That is just plain awful’ – Mixed reactions as QPR make club announcement

Queens Park Rangers have released a special commemorative shirt to celebrate 100 years at their Loftus Road Ground.

The limited edition shirt pays homage to the green and white hooped jerseys donned by the team of 1917, with the green hoops etched with the names of 100 iconic figures of the club from the past century.

The club have also paid tribute to former stars to wear the shirt by promising to donate £1 from every shirt sale to The Forever R’s Club, an ex-players association.

The R’s have endured a poor season under boss Ian Holloway this season and lie just eight points above the drop with fifteen games remaining.

Fans took to Twitter to let the club know what they thought of the commemorative offering…

Any plans for the 1st team to wear this during a game (like the league cup kit against Cardif last year)?

It’s a tribute to the Irish community from west London who used to help out at the club.
