QPR owner Fernandes backs under-fire boss Hughes

QPR owner Tony Fernandes has asked for patience from the fans following a poor start to the season.

The Super Hoops find themselves at the foot of the Premier League table with just two points from six outings but Fernandes feels that manager Mark Hughes still has time to get things right at Loftus Road.

"Keep calm. Six games does not make a season. I have learnt from many wise chairmen," Fernandes wrote on Twitter in the wake of last night's 2-1 loss to West Ham United.

"Mark will sort it out. Look at his record. We would have won if we didn't go down to 10 (men when Samba Diakite was sent off).

"I'm calm and want to build stability which is what most fans want. There are many out there who are clueless.

"I am relaxed and confident. Let's get all our players back and in form and fit and then let's see."
