Browse the offending tweets as Joey Barton criticises Mark Hughes in his latest Twitter meltdown!
The outspoken Queens Park Rangers midfielder appears to bear a grudge with the current Stoke City manager in relation to their working relationship – or, indeed, lack of it – while playing under him at Loftus Road.
Well, not even playing under him – as Barton alludes to, it was Hughes who let him go on loan to Marseille as part of a disastrous and costly overhaul of QPR’s squad that ultimately saw them relegated.
Somewhat less than impressed by Hughes’s new interview with the Telegraph asking not to be judged on his spell at QPR, Barton points out that he also judges him for the jobs he did at Manchester City and Fulham – a little harsh, seeing as he led the Cottagers to 8th before resigning in acrimonious circumstances.

If its any consolation for Mark, I judge him on Fulham and Man City as well…

People thinking I hold a grudge against Hughes. I don't. He was the one who let me go to Marseille after all.

What I don't like is people shifting the blame. How dare he say what he has said in that interview. The club/board backed him to the hilt.

Gave him everything he ever asked for. Fans backed him to the hilt. He hired his 'mates' (Rigg/Kia) to advise on players. His signings.

Who took the club down. Why? Lack of professional pride and discipline. IMO. He will claim he kept us up the year. He never. Warnocks team.

I reiterate, players he signed took the club down. Why I am ranting at this interview? Because he is trying to get away from the truth.

We are all now here trying to clean up his mess. The players/staff/board and fans. He inherits Tony Pulis team, a good solid team and now..

..he thinks he's the bees knees. Nah mate, you're not shifting blame. Not on my watch.

Accept you failed. Accept your to blame. Be humble and apologise to a club you left in a hell of a worse situation than when you came.
