ted.Hughes took charge after the sacking of Neil Warnock in January 2012 but was shown the exit at Loftus Road in November of the same year, having failed to win any of their first 12 league matches of 2012/13 season.
QPR went onto finish bottom of the Barclays Premier League and it now looks like the play-offs are the only way they will exit the Sky Bet Championship at the first attempt.
Hughes, meanwhile, is rebuilding his reputation at Stoke and recently urged people not to judge him on his time at the R's.
Those comments clearly irked QPR midfielder Barton, who on Tuesday posted a link to the interview via Twitter with the comment "April Fools".
"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
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."
