Mark Hughes will decide what club punishment to hand down to Newcastle's former captain for his conduct during Sunday's 3-2 defeat to Manchester City.
QPR owner Tony Fernandes: "I will leave that to the manager and the chief executive (Phil Beard).
"Now we just want to focus on the positives. It's a little bit early to talk about that.
"I will not step in. My goal at the club is to bring in the right infrastructure and the right people, I leave the manager to manage the players.
"Of course the board will be involved, but we will let him come to us and say: 'This is what I would like to do'."
