Despite being ‘encouraged’ to do the ayotollah on numerous occasions he absolutely blanked the fans who supported him and contributed to his wages.

He's a QPR player now and was hugely and bitterly let down by our club, so what did you really expect? :?

He probably wasn't in the mood after the game either after that result! :laughing6:

Maybe let down by the club, but never by our supporters :bluescarf: :ayatollah: :bluebird:

Hmmmm, that's not how I recall it at the point of leaving...

He's a professional and I've seen members on here slating a player who dared to acknowledge a former team and it's not just one way either

Some do, some don't; it's no big issue and I feel sure David Marshall will remain in the hearts of most who saw him :ayatollah:

You are absolutely right.

Marlon Pack took a slagging om here for acknowledging the Bristol City fans at Ashton Gate a few weeks ago.

Why do some of our fans think that every old player has to do the Ayatollah when asked to do so? These players (and there have been some great servants such as David Marshall) now play for different teams and their loyalties no longer lie with Cardiff strange as that may seem to us.

And if I remember correctly Marshall and his family were settled happily at Cardiff and would probably have been happy to stay here for the rest of his career but the decision to sell him was taken by the club and he had little say in the matter.

I'd much rather remember him for the fantastic service he gave to the club when he was here than the fact that he didn't tap his head a few times whilst playing for a different team many years after he left the club.

He clapped our fans and done the ayatollah when he came out for the second half and done it again just before the half kicked off.

Think it’s fair enough for him not to do it through the second half as probably wouldn’t go down too well with QPR fans.

No idea why anyone would think this is an issue. The club shit on him, two fingers might have been more appropriate.

Well, that blows the OP's 'claim' out of the water...! :thumbup: :ayatollah: :laughing6:

100% agree! :ayatollah:

A good friend and former colleague of mine was a very close (family friends) neighbour of the Marshall's and I wrote at the time of the devastation being 'ordered out' of the club caused for them all, as they had hoped David would see his career out at our club and they could settle in the area

He's moved on and I'm sure he will have fond memories; but his current focus if QPR and the possibility of Premier League football next season

Marlon Pack takes more 'stick' than he deserves from some of our 'Boo Boys' and often have double standards depending who their current 'target' is :roll:

I had no idea that David was actually his middle name.

Hi did the Ayatollah and threw the ball in his net for the equaliser.

What more do we want !

He’s a legend to me. I

Tim, a legend to 99.9% :notworthy:

But there's no stopping those with negative agenda like the OP of this thread, who has since gone very quiet (no apology) :roll:
