Warnock dismisses talk of rift between QPR midfielders Barton and Taarabt

QPR boss Neil Warnock has moved quickly to rubbish reports of a falling out between his two controversial midfield stars Joey Barton and Adel Taarabt. Warnock was forced to remind Barton about his conduct this week after the former Newcastle midfielder openly criticised Taarabt following the club's 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers.

"I don't know whether they fell out to be honest. I have only read what's been in the papers I've not heard anything about it around the training ground," Warnock said.

"This sort of thing happens at every club. I could tell you every club where there's a few who can light the touch paper and we are no different to them."
