Mark Hughes Sacked after Humblest EPL Performance

Another coach faced the anger of his boss after worst performance in EPL. Now, QPR took this bold step and fired its manager Mark Hughes when he could not prove his gaming excellence on the field. No matter if he was just ten months old. This EPL season has been the worst for QPR, coz it could only find itself on bottom place after playing twelve matches, and according to QPR owner Tony Fernandes, Hughes could not prove what he was hired for.
