Thoroughly enjoyed watching Bournemouth winning promotion tonight, tinged with a little bit of jealousy of course. Great success story.Obviously doing something right at that club. We need to bridge about a 30 point gap for promotion. Shouldnt be much of a problem
Sooner than that. They wont survive that long in PL. Of course maybe you meant in two seasons or 16 or 17 seasons.I wonder which?
Fair play to them, They'll be every teams fav away day,fill the ground for them,not hard I guess, Pocket the riches get relegated.
Pleased Bournemouth have clinched the second spot, Norwich or Ipswich to complete the third place for the promotion, less travelling for the faithfull
I think its a fairy tale to be honest but I have a lot of time for Eddie Howe a very good manager and I think they will stay up next season with him at the helm.They have a Russian Billionaire aren't they all in Russia that is !So now they need to increase the ground capacity.They score lots of goals and yet if we can take anything from this we beat them home and away we lack goals and consistencyand the most important ingredient STABILTY
I will have £10 says they come straight back down. And another £10 that Arry is in charge by the end of February in a desperate bid to keep em up.
Thats one of the really ****ty features of small clubs getting promoted to the pl. Howe should get an award for manager of the year in all divisions.To hell with Mourinho and his billions. Instead he probably will be out of work in six months and some of the players that got them up, probably wont get a decent shot in the pl either. Hope they do though
YOUR ON! Howe will not get sacked he may go to a bigger club but not yet lets face it he tried it once with Burnley but was unsettled and Bournemouth paid a lot of money to get him back Should but angry with Bournemouth because they refused to sell me a ticket for a midweek game because I came from Leeds! Hes FAR BETTER manager than Harry in any case!There are no dodgy rumours surrounding him!
Chuffed for them and it shows that all the parachute money in the world won't beat a good manager/coach and a great team spirit. Watford and b/Mouth are names that don't drip off the tongue but the dozen or so former prem clubs with parachute money should look at themselves closely. If Hull drop they have contracts in place that slash players wages and these players will not get other prem clubs chasing them, so Hull will be a good bet to bounce straight back. Wigan should have done it but shyte management and poor old Dave losing heart didn't help. Norwich wasted a season and should have bounced back. So what about our plight, because unless something changes around the club, like the owner, the coach, the cash injection required we will be struggling on again next term
