SUPER ROB'S RETIREMENT HEARTBREAK
FORMER Swedish international Rob Steiner has spoken with great disappointment about his retirement from professional football.
But he hopes to still have a future in the game.
Rob said: "My knee is in a very bad state. My choice was either to give it another six to ten months to see if I can recover or to call it a day.
The decision was very simple - I have to get out with a half decent knee. "I'm struggling with it when I twist and turn. The knee swells up immediately.
There has already been some changes in my bone structure and there is no cartilage left on the right side of the knee.
"I am so disappointed. I had joined QPR and it is a club I really like. So I wanted to go out there every Saturday to please the crowd.
I am so sorry about the way the situation has worked out and I feel I'm letting down a lot of people - especially Gerry and the management, who believed in me.
"A new life starts for me now. Hopefully I can have something to do with football in the future. But I have no idea where I go from here.
It is a big step for me. I never thought about this in the past. I have no education, nothing. And suddenly I am in this situation.
"But I just want to say thanks to all the Rangers supporters. I had a marvellous time with the club and the fans were always very good to me."
