Nygaard's St Patrick's Day miracle - History28th Feb 2024 17:13 Ahead of Saturday's trip to Leicester, LFW looks back at a memorable meeting between the two on this ground from 2007 when Marc Nygaard broke character and turned into a world-beating centre forward for the afternoon, securing an unlikely win for a relegation-haunted Rangers.2

Wasn't the main issue with Nygaard the same we had with Clarke-Salter - potentially very useful player to the team, never available. For a massive, muscly bloke Nygaard was fragile as fck.

Yes - it was a shame. Marc Nygaard was unfortunately injured in long spells at his time at QPR. But not a bad striker for such a big man. Sort of Peter Crouch on steroids. He actually got 7 caps for Denmark. Exactly the same as Lucas Andersen. That volley really was outrageous and showed that the big man was not without skill.

When we say "injured", one of the people involved in that squad at the time told me Nygaard would sit out training... games... weeks at time... not because he was injured but because he "thought he might be about to possibly soon get injured".

for a 6ft 4 heavy set, ex boxer, that nygaard would jump, tuck his neck in and usually lose the high ball....but paladini loved him for his points won ratio. a few big goals aside, not a good player for me, i was at that leicester game, it was some goal and that ground felt a 9,9 on the richter scale

Other thing I think I remember about Nygaard was a home game (Watford or Luton I think), when he was back helping out, a long cross came over and he inexplicably put his hand above his head and handballed it for a stonewall pen. Absolutely ridiculous
