Would have preferred Bournemouth to have waited until after saturday

Be very annoying if they have a new guy in by Saturday.

Bournemouth have played Villa H, Man City A, Arsenal H and Liverpool A and got 3 points. If that were our starting fixtures I think we'd be accepting of that to be honest. Not the 9-0 obviously, but to win one of those games is ok. He's not been sacked based on results this season I reckon, he's been sacked because 1) they staggered over the line last season when they should have won promotion at a canter, and 2) He's criticised the board for not signing players and the players for not being good enough. When you do that as a manager there's only one outcome.

It sounds like it's very much part 2, tbf criticising the players for not being good enough is not a great look and he has said it repeatedly. It's not really comparable to our situation as you'd have expected Bournemouth to already have a solid base after their previous spending in the championship. More like Fulham where you'd be wanting 4 or so not first teamers and the rest from last year.

Just been listening to a US radio show called “grumpy pundits” with Tommy Smithe and Tom Rennie.
Both saying we are “doing a Fulham” and we’ve signed to many players who don’t know who each other are. They went on to say the players we’ve signed only maybe 4 of them are “bottom half premiership players” others are not premiership standard, and that we will be in real trouble. It’s a phone in show and I would love to call them at the end of the season, when we stay up, to remind them of their comments.

In fairness the jury's still out on the quality of most of our signings. They sound like they ignored the obvious need we had to build a new squad, regardless of how well the business actually ends up going.

How would they know?

They should stick to Baseball or Rounders whatever they call it.

Southampton and Fulham winning today, that's disappointing. At least Everton didn't win

[Fumanchew]

I’m convinced us being promoted and not one of the yo-yo teams has given us a bizzaro-league this year

Just if anyone is interested but some tickets are now available online for bournemouth. Going to be my first time back to the city ground since the passing of Aaron. So a big big day coming up for me and my new football buddy, his younger brother Aiden.

Leicester got thumped today. They're in a spot of bother atm.

Rodgers and the board want to part ways but neither wants to pay out. i hope he lasts until our game
