Bored of FIFA 16 already? Good, because we've got real football for you to chew on now as
Fulham welcome QPR to Craven Cottage. Yep, it's me and you six FIFA-less sods for the next two-and-a-half hours as both London rivals look to get a bit of dodgy form out of their system. Before we go any further, let's have a quick check on the teams.
FULHAM XI: Lonergan; Fredericks, Ream, Stearman, Husband; Cairney, Tunnicliffe, O'Hara, Pringle; McCormack, Dembele
QPR XI: Green; Perch, Onuoha, Angella, Konchesky; Henry, Faurlin, Luongo, Phillips, Cherry; Austin
FULHAM SUBS: Lewis, Burn, Voser, Mattila, Christensen, Kavanagh, Woodrow
QPR SUBS: Smithies, Ler, Mackie, Doughty, Toszer, Hall, Gladwin
Being polite, let's start with the visitors and
Chris Ramsey makes, hmm, zero changes. They haven't won any of their last four, but Ramsey is keeping faith in the side that drew 1-1 at Hull City.
Charlie Austin continues up front and Leroy Fer returns to the squad for the first time. Austin has seven goals under his belt already this season #prolific #hashtags.
Ross McCormack, who has netted twice so far, spearhead the Cottagers attack, along with
Moussa Dembele.
Let's look at Fulham, and
Kit Symons come into this on the back of successive defeats, having lost 3-2 to Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship last week, before then losing 1-0 to Stoke City in the League Cup in midweek. They're having a worse week than David Cameron.
QPR aren't exactly rolling in the victories either, it has to be said. Ramsey's men, who did win three in the space of 10 days back in August, have not won any of their last four - two draws, two defeats. They come into this on the back of two draws in the Championship, with Blackburn and Hull City, having previously lost to League Two side Carlisle United in the League Cup.
PREDICTION! Right, 11 minutes from kickoff so let's get a prediction horribly wrong. For me, it was 1-1 written all over it, but let's have a quick look to see what Twitter makes of it - if we can find anybody on Twitter, what with the release of FIFA.
Gaz is pulling no punches here, is he? Wow.
Neither is Conor, who doesn't expect much unfortunately.
This will be similar to my night if it's still 0-0 by the hour mark so you can expect frank opinions, on everything, not just football, and possibly a few cuss words. We jest. But seriously.
Join us in a few short minutes for kickoff!
KICKOFF: Right, let's go! QPR get us underway.
Bit of a hairy moment for Rob Green early on as he comes to collect
Ben Pringle's corner, but misses it, but the danger is averted.
GOAL! Fulham 1-0 QPR (Moussa Dembele)
What a quite brilliant start for Fulham, who move ahead when Dembele squeezes between Angella and Konchesky to nod home a Ben Pringle ball. Konchesky partially culpable for a goal being conceded? Well I never.
SHOT! Excellent start by Fulham as Dembele turns provider to set up McCormack, who is onside but the angle is massively against him and he drills into the side netting.
QPR haven't done anything of note. They've barely ventured out of their own, but it is very early it must be said. Still, it's been a terrible start by the visitors.
QPR enjoying a tad bit more possesion but, well, they're going nowhere. Fulham aren't exactly as solid as an early-90s AC Milan at the back so the visitors will fancy their chances of scoring, but getting past the hosts' midfield is tricky.
Bit ambitious from Stone Cold Charlie Austin here as he goes for goal from about 30 yards, but it's instantly blocked by Tim Ream. Austin totally ineffective in this first 14 minutes. He's just not seeing the ball. Seven goals so far this season, though, so no matter how quiet he is, he can still punish you at any moment.
We said Austin is always dangerous and he nearly latches on to Matty Phillips' ball here, but Ryan Fredericks is back around really swiftly to snuff out the chance. Good tracking from the right-back.
GOAL! Fulham 2-0 QPR (Ben Pringle)
Oh god it's just got much, much harder for QPR, and it's stupid play by Faurlin, who plays the ball backwards to James Perch, but young Pringle nicks the ball, drops the shoulder from outside the box and drills a fine left-footed effort past Green.
Incidentally, QPR had an excellent chance just moments previous when Massimo Luongo paniced and drilled wide after being played through by Phillips. Fine margins and all that.
We poked a bit of fun at Konchesky earlier on but he has just whipped in a brilliant cross from the left-hand side, but it's a tiny bit over the head of Austin who can't quite reach it.
Huge from Angella who prevents a certin goal as he slides in to cut out McCormack's cross. Without that intervention, it's 3-0 because Dembele was waiting to tap home. Huge.
It's been a good response by QPR but you still wonder whether or not they can get past this crowd's defence. They've only managed to do so on one occasion and even then Luongo fluffed his lines.
GOAL! Fulham 3-0 QPR (Ross McCormack)
This could get nasty. It's 3-0! Its a wonderful team goal which ends when Tunnicliffe threads in McCormack, whose first touch is solid and he slots past Green. Good goal but far too easy I'm afraid. Onuoha, in particular, was just nowhere near close enough to McCormack.
SUB: Tjaronn Chery has gone off for Jamie Mackie - and he hasn't accepted it well. He walks around the perimeter of the pitch, presumably en route to the tunnel. He's refusing to sit on the bench. It's been a nightmare for QPR.
Sorry QPR fans but I just don't see a way back for your side. I can only see Fulham scoring more. Your defence has been sub-par, and your midfield and attack is just second best all night.
Five minutes left until the break. QPR have looked slightly brighter in recent minutes but, unless they score before the break, it's ever so hard to see a way back unfortunately.
QPR, to their credit, still going about their job dilligently, but as we said, unless they score in the next, say, two minutes, it's game over.
HALF TIME: Fulham 3-0 QPR
That's it. Goals from Dembele, Pringle and McCormack have Fulham leading 3-0 at the break! Amazing scenes at Craven Cottage. Can QPR turn it around? It's such a big ask. It really is. They needed a goal before the break but it never came and you have to imagine that's it. However, this is football. And it's the Championship, so you know anything can happen.
KICKOFF: And we're back. Can QPR possibly turn this around? Well, time will tell I suppose.
Some more worrying news now as Paul Konchesky goes down injured briefly, but he's back on his feet now. Nothing is going right for them tonight, is it?
Better from QPR as Phillips and Perch exchange a slick one-two, but Stearman reads it brilliantly and snuffs out the opportunity. Much better from the visitors though.
QPR have been much better in this half and it's really promising as Konchesky heads at goal but Lonergan saves. The arrival of Leroy Fer at half time has given them a bit of something extra by the looks of things.
Good defending from James Perch, and it has to be. The right-back slides in to clear Jamie O'Hara's searching ball. If not, Pringle would've had his second and Fulham's fourth. Excellent tempo to this one now.
CHANCE! Woeful defending from Angella, who's had a mixed bag if ever there was one, as he slips and McCormack looks poised to tuck it home from outside the box, but his effort is straight at Rob Green.
It might just be about to go from bad to worse for QPR as Austin limps off the field and it looks like he's going to be replaced. It's been a disastrous night for them.
SUB: Yep, Austin is gone and replaced by Toszer - a midfielder! Jamie Mackie is already on, remember. He and Faurlin lead the line. It's been a horrific night for Rangers it really has.
GOAL! Fulham 4-0 QPR (McCormack)
Stick a fork in it, folks. Pringle's first-time ball releases Fredericks down the left, and he beats Angella to a 50-50 before pulling back in a danger zone and, after Dembele hit the bar, McCormack was on hand to fire home the rebound. He couldn't miss.
SUB: Birthday boy Jamie O'Hara gets the love from the fans as he's replaced by Lasse Vigen Christensen.
Kit Symons looks like the kitten that got the cream. He's wandering around his technical area, chewing gum and he looks a very cool dude at the moment it has to be said. And why not? His team only have four but it's been a five-star performance.
Angella has been brilliant and shocking tonight, somehow. He does really well here to cut out Pringle's ball for Christensen, who would've been through on goal if not for the defender's intervention.
SAVE! Good save from Green as he keeps out Tunnicliffe's long-range drive. It's very much a case of damage limitation for the visitors. They'll take 4-0.
SUB: Fulham make another sub now as the brilliant Fredriks makes way for Kay Voser.
Right, 10 minutes to go but I'm not sure anybody of a QPR persuasion would be unhappy to see this one end right now. It's been a horrible night for them.
BOOKING: First booking of the night as Perch goes into Kevin Friend's little black book.
CLOSE! So close from Cauley Woodrow as he drills a nice left-footed effort narrowly past Rob Green's goal.
Thankfully for QPR, there's only five minutes left. That's the best news of a truly rotten night for him.
SHOT! Kay Voser fires over. Well over. There's FIVE minutes to be added on - can QPR nick one? No, probably not, but let's see if Fulham can add a fifth.
Three to go and it's all just petering out now really. QPR fans still singing though, to their credit.
FULL TIME: Fulham 4-0 QPR
That's it! Goals from Dembele, Pringle and McCormack gave Fulham a 3-0 lead at the break, before another from McCormack, after main man Austin went off injured for the R's, gave them a four-goal lead. From there, it was easy. No more goals, but it could have ended 7-0 on another night. Truly dominant. Anywho, thanks for joining our live commentary and we'll see you next time.
