Panic-stricken Boro fans went into social media meltdown when pictures of Albert Adomah in a QPR shirt emerged.

Worry not.

It appears Boro's flying flanker went into the QPR club shop and bought himself a shirt with his name on the back yesterday.

And then, it appears, he put the shirt straight on and went to KFC for a bite to eat.

Football fans with an eye for a Championship footballer dived into their pockets to pull out their phone and get a snap of the World Cup star.

But Adomah hasn't suddenly jumped ship and declared himself a Rangers player.

Not even Harry Rednapp could pull off that signing in October with the transfer window more than two months away.

Not that Adomah will be on the move in January.

With Boro pushing for a place in the top six the last thing on Karanka's mind will be letting go of a key member of his first team player.

Even footballers are allowed to visit other clubs.

And with a rare seven days between games in the middle of the Championship's usual hectic schedule, Adomah, it seems, decided to take in QPR's game with Villa last night.

As long as he keeps putting in a shift for Boro come matchday, I'm sure we can forgive him for that.
