So which team do you think is the best? Southampton v Coventry / AFC Bournemouth v Charlton 01 Davis / 31 Boruc 06 Fonte / 02 Francis 12 Butterfield / 05 Elphick 13 Fox / 03 Cook 26 Hooiveld / 11 Daniels 04 Schneiderlin / 30 Ritchie 10 Guly / 08 Arter (Gosling - 61' ) 14 Hammond (Cork 37) / 06 Surman 20 Lallana (Puncheon 82) / 07 Pugh (Smith - 69' ) 07 Lambert / 18 Kermorgant (Jones - 82' ) 11 Sharp (De Ridder 76) / 13 Wilson Substitutes / Substitutes 21 Bialkowski / 04 Gosling 03 Harding / 10 Pitman 08 Cork / 15 Smith 33 De Ridder / 20 Fraser 42 Puncheon / 22 Ward 41 Allsop 49 Jones Only 3 (maybe 2) of the original 16 left now
the main difference the team that got promoted got its arse kicked for half a season, but we had the backing to reinforce and had some youth like Shaw starting to pop up. hope Bournemouth invest well unlike Burnley or they will find it really hard. Its a big ask for a inexperienced striker like Wilson to get the goals to keep them up
Indeed. Life, Purpose, Happiness. 4.5 billion years of Earth evolution and the best thing we can come up with is to talk about 22 chaps running around a green rectangle with some lines on it kicking a ball of synthetic leather. Did we go wrong somewhere..?

Nope, we're on the right path. All you need is love and football. And music. All the rest is just filler.
What a parochial pair you are. So World hunger, poverty, inequality, cruelty, etc, etc... come below football eh..? Tsk tsk.
there's 24 hours in a day - it's pretty hard to discuss "important" things all day - and the people that do often end up discussing how to kill people in the neighbouring country.
actually the family name is Bathgate (which is Scottish!) but born in Southampton, brought up in Bristol, spent 25 years in Wales and now 10 years in Serbia. I guess on facebook my nationality would be "complicated"
