Ngbakoto, 24, has signed a three-year contract at Loftus Road despite a late offer from Wolves.
This time though it went QPR’s way, with Ngbakoto telling them on Saturday afternoon that he had decided to join them.

New Cardiff City signing Jazz Richards has found himself at the centre of controversy after allegedly refusing several requests from Bluebirds fans to perform the famous Ayatollah on his competitive debut.
Several fans who were at the match claimed Richards refused repeated requests to 'do the Ayatollah' before being booed by his own supporters.
One fan, Carl Curtis, wrote on the Cardiff City forum he helps run: "I am at the game and this is absolutely true. In fact, it is now seven times [Richards has been asked to do the Ayatollah].
"If Lex Immers and Lee Peltier hadn't pointed it out to him then I would have given him the benefit of the doubt but he heard it and refused. No wonder we all booed him."
The issue also formed part of a BBC Radio Wales phone-in following the match.

Channel 5 show is awful in ways that make no sense - my theory is Sky make them use shit camera angles, limited footage, i dunno - for an hour-long programme covering 9 or 10 matches yesterday i have no sense of how most of the teams actually played.

Saunders on Sky earlier was saying that the likes of Town + Rotherham will be parking a bus at Villa and lack the ability to win a proper game of football against these galacticos that won 2 home games last season. It is probably that kind of insight into the makeup of EPL2 that made him such a fine manager at this level.
― calzino, Sunday, 7 August 2016 19:44 (seven years ago) link
wait, did he watch the game today? same old shit from Villa. there's half a decent team there (almost all new signings / youngsters). Elphick is probably the most popular player in the squad already, Tshibola looks like he might be good. Hutton Cissokho Westwood Gardener Gestede are all problems that need solving. Bacuna not much better. We're going to need at least one good midfielder if we're gonna get anywhere this season.

I missed this...
/Speaking about the Addicks thrashing, McCarthy said: "It was embarrassing. It was a complete shambles, a really disgraceful performance.
"I just said to them that if that was in November, the quote would be 'he's lost the dressing room and they don't want to play for him'. I know that's not the case, but that's what would be said."
McCarthy vowed that his side would perform better against Birmingham, but expects a poor reaction from supporters if they fail to do so.
"It doesn't bode well for anybody, how they feel about me, how they feel about the team, or how they feel about the club, getting slapped here, six," the former Wolves boss added.
"Come along and support us and cheer us and let's hope we can beat Birmingham, and if we don't, then I accept the inevitable."
― wtev, Monday, 31 July 2017 15:52 (six years ago) link
