West Brom take the p*ss out of Peter Odemwingie with Christmas tweet…

Peter Odemwingie’s famous car window interview is the stuff of legend.

Then a West Brom player, Odemwingie arrived at QPR expecting to finalise a transfer to the club on January 31, 2013.

He was so confident about completing his deal, he decided he had time to have a quick chat to a Sky Sports News camera crew upon arrival.

As we all know, the transfer wasn’t completed, leaving poor old Peter with egg on his face.

Unsurprisingly, he couldn’t reignite his career at West Brom and is now at Stoke.

But at the Hawthorns, they haven’t forgotten him or his famous interview.

As the club’s official Twitter account counts down to Christmas, they’ve even made a child recreate it…

The club later thanked Odemwingie for ‘being a good sport’ as they shared the story behind the tweet.
