Well after the international break, game 3 of the horrible 4 is upon us. 6/6 so far, lets make it 12/12! However, I think we're under no illusions that this game is a very difficult fixture. The bookies have Bournemouth at a very short price, we're widely available at 18/5! Not that I've seen Bournemouth play once this season, but I'm led to believe they play nice expansive football. A real test of where we're at, sadly I have a feeling we may lose by a single goal margin. I'll go 2-1 Bournemouth in a decent affair. PLEASE be wrong, happy to be proven wrong! As for the side, I think Mick MAY lean to the side of caution. Very 50-50 as to the goalkeeper, however the outfieild will be...... Mings/Smith/Berra/Chambers Skuse/Hyam Bru Hunt Murphy McGoldrick. That said, we do have options. Sammon/ Bishop/ Tabb could step in. Could Anderson make an impact off the bench? Could it be Darren Ambrose time, or Henshall time late on? We certainly have options for a plan B second half, something we haven't necessarily had the past few years. I'll be there, COYB!
tough one to call, after the international break, 1-1 is my call, Berra. As for the side, I would be shocked to Bart drop out. defence, I reckon Parr might come back in for Smith due to the travelling tommy has done. Midfield, I reckon Tabby will be with Hyam and Iron Bru. Upfront, as westie said. COYB, please get us a win!
I doubt if Bournemouth will have faced a tougher opponent than us! We will chase, press and work them into submission! None of this letting them play out from the back nonsense! Stop Ritchie job done!
Well going by that Warky we're the best side in the league though I know the sentiment. We're an absolute nightmare to play. I was so irritated we lost 3-1 at Cardiff, very comfortable at 1-0 until that Whittingham goal but second half was soooo poor. Surman + Gosling are VERY VERY capable midfielders at this level, they certainly are not a one trick pony.
I think we're destined to not win. I'm going, and i haven't witnessed a town win in seven games. Let's hope my luck.changes this week. On that basis I'm going for a 2-2 draw.
A proper hard away day as we're all aware. The cherries are flying as are we. But head says 2-0 ballmouth heart says a tight hard fought 0-1 chambo 83 minute header.
I'd be very dissappointed if players who have performed well the past couple of games drop out for Skuse and Gerken, certainly Tabb and Bru deserve to keep their place and in Tabbs case position, he played the holding role superbly last week
Lol..sorry Warky, I'll revert back to type soon enough. Even Spanish has been sounding positive lately!
Bournemouth will win 5-0 but then we could always win 5-0 or it could be a draw!! This one is a game that really could go any way, my prediction is....... If Bournemouth are on top of their game, they will win by the odd goal, if they are not 100% then we will win!!
Love it Spanish far cry from Mick out lets see how we go. I agree with your prediction, tough game. Hope it hammers down with rain and makes it hard to play passing footy. I'd really fancy our chances then.
Love the dose of realism on here...just wish I was going, but on domestic duty. 1-1 and happy with a point. Watch out for bleedin Brentford!
