Video: QPR’s version of “Merry Christmas Everybody” is unmissable

Rio Ferdinand, Joey Barton and Harry Redknapp all star in this monstrosity/masterpiece

Neil Treacy

We’re not sure whether this is the greatest thing we’ve ever seen, or the worst.

Just a day after it emerged there was a bit of a schmozzle at the QPR Christmas party, QPR have given us an even better Christmas present, after they posted a video of their squad singing the tune “Merry Christmas Everybody”.

When I say singing though, I mean mouthing.

Clearly the QPR lads were so hopelessly out of tune, that they thought it best to just play the song and have the players mouth along the words.

Keep an eye out for Clint Hill looking like he’s singing the national anthem, Joey Barton showing all the charisma of a hostage reading a prepared statement, Glenn Hoddle looking like he’s getting ready for the after-dinner circuit, and Harry Redknapp stealing the show with the famous “IT’S CHRIIIIIISSSSTMAAAAAAS” line.
