QPR boss Neil Warnock was delighted with the goal scoring performance of Joey Barton in victory at Wolves.
The midfielder has frequently been in trouble over the course of his career and joined QPR having been made available on a free transfer by Newcastle after criticising the club on his Twitter account.
Warnock, however, is just grateful to have the 29-year-old.
"I'm glad Joey has got his past or I wouldn't have been able to sign him," Warnock said.
"He was my number one target. I knew the situation at Newcastle and just kept hoping that none of the top clubs would want him.
"I'm sure he could get into one of those teams in the top four or five, but thankfully nobody came in for him."
On the incident at the end of the match, Warnock said: "I've just fined Anton Ferdinand a lot of money for running 40 yards to get booked.
"I know if the official had got the decision right, there wouldn't have been any problems like that, because how the kid (Henry) didn't get booked for the tackle on Joey Barton in the corner I'll never know.
"I'll be looking at that with great interest, because it is a tackle from behind and even if he got the ball - which he didn't - it is a yellow card, and the linesman is two yards away. If he flags, all that stops."
