Officially a QPR player.
2 year deal.
Here is the lowdown on our new signing from Stoke City fans (safe to say he split opinion a bit!)
🗣️ God knows how he's made a living playing at this level. 🗣️Fox gets pelters for being what he is - an ok Championship player. 🗣️Awful awful player, the guy should be nowhere near the starting 11, he stands out like sore thumb for his lack of footballing ability. 🗣️He's a decent defender at this level and I don't understand why he gets the stick he does from some of our fans. 🗣️ Fine for this league. He's not great but does his job and defends well enough. 🗣️What a blunder in letting him go. He's no world beater but he's a good solid player at this level. 🗣️Can’t think of one playing attribute where he excelled 🗣️He’s the epitome of a lower Championship player 🗣️Thought he was really poor myself. Surprised that there's so many clamouring for him back - such a limited footballer. 🗣️Arguably a little too slow for the championship

Nothing about him being injury prone, so a plus there I guess...

I watched him a bit at Charlton and he became a running joke between my friend and I as to how bad Charlton were becoming. If he’s coming in as a squad player then there’s no problem. But if we see him more than two dozen times this season, then our season will be in a worrying state.
Not one to get excited about but sounds like a perfectly reasonable signing to me. An experienced player who doesn’t miss many matches and fills an area where we have no cover at minimum cost. Hope he has a brilliant season. Welcome!
I'm clinging to my belief that he has to be better than Niko as a left wing back but if as WLS report he's actually here to play as a left sided centre back then it only highlights how inept the QPR decision makers really are.
When you consider that just over a season ago we had a perfectly good 29yo left centre back in Yoann Barnet who our owners deemed was too old to be awarded a new contract. Yet here we are 12 months later now giving a contract to a 29yo of dubious quality.
