England international (we must never forget what happened that day) Jay Bothroyd showed off his delightful new tattoo yesterday which sees the word “love” spelled out in guns, grenades and flick knives down his entire left flank.

There’s a joke about his Arsenal in there somewhere…

Bothroyd posted the image (which has since been deleted) on his Instagram account along with the message, “you have to fight for love…. More than anything it’s artistic.”

Unsurprisingly, those with a vested interest in opposing gun, knife and gang violence have not been particularly impressed with the QPR striker’s “artistic” posturing, though we suppose the man has the right to slather his body in whichever profoundly idiotic imagery he so chooses.

    I’d like to ask him, but would it be worth it – what inspired you to have this imprinted into your epidermis?

    How come he’s getting so much hate? Im sure he’s not the only “role model” who has done something like this, rihanna has tattoos of guns on her side, no one bashed her about it. Each to their own, He obviously wasnt thinking it was promoting violence, Some people over react

    Its his body and his tattoo, why do you care so much? Ask yourself that question and really ponder on it, hopefully you will see that his tattoo is not the problem.
