QPR midfielder Joey Barton has taken aim at Stoke City boss Mark Hughes.
Hughes is rebuilding his reputation at Stoke and recently urged people not to judge him on his time at the R's.
"People thinking I hold a grudge against Hughes. I don't," he posted via his account, @Joey7Barton. "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.
"Who took the club down. Why? Lack of professional pride and discipline. IMO. He will claim he kept us up the year. He never. Warnock's 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."
