    Appreciate your optimism mate but don't think that's quite the angle he was coming from....

    I think it is possible, but not very likely. I remember when England went onto all-seater stadiums, Sunderland were already planning the Stadium of Light, and didn't want to spend money on Roker Park and then abandon it in two years. So they asked for two years leeway, and nobody bitched about it. If Bournemouth need time to make improvements, they'll very probably be given it.

    Why is the AFC bit before the Bournemouth bit?

    I can tell I'm gonna hate them, the next ****ing Swansea.

    Why is the AFC bit attached to the name of Sunderland at all? They're clearly not worthy of the description, the scummy freeloading, playboy b****ards. This is a glorified nightclub with everything going for it. Except men. Let's be frank, the Ladies team is the pride of Sunderland, not these scum.

    Good story and good for them. I would have liked to have seen Norwich go up personally. Shame about Watford then. In 2 minds about Boro

    A previous ambitious chairman wanted them to be the first alphabetical name in all the leagues so they would appear before Arsenal.

    He didn't last long.

    Arsemouth and Boscombe Athletic? Yes. Yes well, it does have a certain ring to it. <laugh>

    If Eddie Howe has watched the likes of Bridcutt and Buckley this season , he'll be aware that championship level players aren't going to be good enough to keep AFCB in the premier league.

    Good for them, what a massive lifeline to a club like that, even if they go down, that money will keep them afloat for years...

    Now for the play offs....should be cracking, seems probably

    Boro
    Norwich
    Ipswich
    Derby.

    couldn't call this one, nor have no preference.
