The i would be happy for Marlon to sign for QPR thread.

[maccatwo]

If he comes and score as he did at Watford I bet no one well care on what he done. I not happy what he done but then there are other footballers that I can say the same about. Some them play for the so called top 6 clubs in the country.

[Rsonist]

Fine, name me some footballers - apart from Lee Hughes - who come close to King's rap sheet. Cheating on your missus hardly comes close.

[G.T.P]

we had either stan bowles, dave thomas, roy wegerle or les ferdinand, clive allen and paul goodard to idolise as our boyhood heroes.
our kids can have this man.

Incidents and legal cases
While on loan to Hull City, King was alleged to have headbutted teammate Dean Windass in a casino in Scarborough. Hull City stated that the matter had been dealt with internally, and both players remained with the club. Windass later described the incident as a "storm in a teacup".
King has convictions for 14 offences, dating from 1997. He received fines, driving bans, community service sentences, a rehabilitation order and orders to pay compensation on convictions including: theft from a person and from a car, criminal damage, and attempting to obtain property by deception; fraudulent use of vehicle licence document, driving without insurance, speeding, drink driving; a wounding incident while playing amateur football, and two cases involving assault of young women rejecting his advances in the Soho area of London.
Two cases have led to imprisonment. In May 2002 he received an eighteen month prison sentence for receiving stolen goods, in relation to a BMW convertible that he was found driving. He was found not guilty of a charge of assaulting a police officer in a related case. His solicitor commented that "His reputation will be tarnished forever, whatever success he achieves, he'll always be referred to in a Tyson-esque way as someone who has had a criminal past and that is a considerable penalty." Gillingham continued to pay his salary while he was in jail, and supported in his appeal, which resulted in the sentence being reduced to nine months, and he was released on licence after five months, returning to the Gillingham team within two days of his release. In December 2008, again in the Soho area, he was arrested on suspicion of punching a 20 year-old female university student in the face, causing a broken nose and split lip for which she was treated in hospital. He was later convicted of sexual assault and assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and sentenced to 18 months in prison and placed on the sex offender register for seven years. He has indicated he will appeal against the length of his jail sentence. Wigan Athletic immediately initiated the cancellation of his contract.

Itd be a four or five pint-er but......I would

What kick his head in or his back door, he has probably got a pamela anderson prison tattoo on his back from the soap brigade in there

[RussRanger]

Well I think we should sign Marlon


































































Harewood.

[maccatwo]

Tony Adams drink driving for one. Steve G fighting, Jonathan woodgate and few others. That 3 for you and bet there more others can name.

[Gtleighsr3]

Stan Bowles is hardly a role model for kids is he.Drunk/gambles and slapped his Mrs as well.

[Hertford Hoop]

I wouldn't want him here because I believe he would distrupt the dressing room. The fans would be split and the away fans would have a field day.

The Chopra and Roberts names have gone quiet this morning

[maccatwo]

Peter Shilton got done for slapping his wife.

[maccatwo]

John Terry whole family

[Nodge70]

None of those mentioned had 13 or 14 previous convictions though......

[Rsonist]

Not to excuse the seriousness of it in any way but Adams' drink driving was a one time mistake and one you could argue that was a product of a different era with regards to drinking in football. And you couldn't say he's not a reformed character now.

Stevie G fighting a bloke in a club... big deal.

Hard to judge Woodgate's involvement in that episode but he's done little wrong before and since.

Still not coming anywhere near King.

[Gtleighsr3]

Plenty been accussed and cleared of rape as well.Shed loads drink drive which is a potential killer.

[G.T.P]

Stan Bowles is hardly a role model for kids is he. Drunk/gambles and slapped his Mrs as well.
