We take a break from the Premier League this weekend as we travel to Loftus Road to face Queens Park Rangers - now home of Steve Cook (who is unlikely to be playing) and Asmir Begovic who is likely to be in the Rangers line up.

In the EFL Championship, its not been an easy season for QPR as they have had to compete with FFP restrictions as they battle to avoid the drop to League One. Now managed by a Spanish manager themselves in Martí Cifuentes they have endured a torrid time. Is the FA Cup a priority for Rangers? Is it a priority for AFC Bournemouth?

We welcomed back on Former Premier League Referee Mark Halsey to discuss the season so far, the form of the old Cherries players, Gareth Ainsworth, Neil Critchley and Michael Beale and where he feels it went wrong (Beale did have QPR top of the league at one point last season) and lots more.

And of course we also needed to discuss VAR and the decisions in two Cherries games but unlike our previous videos we discuss two decisions which went in our favour.

We also look at the two recent additions to the Premier League list in Rebecca Welch who is the first ever female top flight referee (and in fact will be in charge of the game on Saturday) and Sam Allison who is the first black referee in the top flight for 15 years since Uriah Rennie and why this is great for the game.

Let us know your score predictions and thank you again to Mark Halsey for joining us on this show!
