Arsenal legend Dixon slams QPR's Barton over Warnock blast

Arsenal legend Lee Dixon has slammed QPR captain Joey Barton over his Twitter attack on former manager Neil Warnock.

Dixon put the boot into football's notorious bad boy for showing a lack of respect towards Warnock.

Dixon told the Daily Star: "I was always brought up to respect managers.

"Sometimes you don't like a manager. I had run-ins with George Graham. You don't like the manager but there's always respect there.

"To come out and say things after the event, I think it should be kept in-house.

"There should be respect. That's how I was brought up and that's what I believe in."
