West Brom have accused Peter Odemwingie of acting "wholly unprofessionally" after his failed move to Queens Park Rangers.
Odemwingie is now faced with going back to West Brom looking for forgiveness, having spent the best part of the last week complaining on Twitter about their refusal to allow him to leave. He had, though, initially thought that was in the past, telling reporters from his car: "It's fine. West Brom was my home but this is a new chapter. I love West Brom and always will. "I am optimistic. A few good players have arrived here (at QPR) and I am happy with the trust Harry Redknapp has in me. "The last few results have given us a chance to stay up. I don't think the owners will bring in so many players if they don't think it will happen. "I hope West Brom are happy with what they will get and they hope to get players themselves." Rangers boss Redknapp said he had sympathy with the player, telling Sky Sports News: "I think he probably felt that the deal had been agreed between the clubs and it hadn't and it was all a mix-up really. "I feel sorry for the lad and the way the whole thing's turned out. It wasn't any of our doing. I think he was maybe advised that he should turn up here and that the club had made an offer and the offer had been accepted. The wires got crossed somewhere."
