Hughes thanked

Hughes has left QPR in a parlous position, four points adrift at the bottom, but shareholder Kamarudin Bin Meranun said: "While we look forward with Harry, we would also like to place on record our appreciation to Mark. "Though results have not been good this season, Mark has moved the club forwards in terms of infrastructure and advancing QPR as a Premier League club. For that, we want to thank him. "He was a consummate professional and it was a difficult decision to make, as we had all grown to respect him. We wish him and his family well for the future."
