    not about the result tonight, well done boscombe for that (Y)

    but their beach.

    £32 million on a 'wave machine' type thing, and it doesn't even work and has now been closed...

    hahahhahahahahhaaa

    Bit strange to hold such a grudge against a town, particularly as it's totally unrelated to football, and we don't actually have a rivalry with their football team.

    If there are any Bournemouth fans reading this, please disregard it and don't construe it as adding non-existent fuel to the non-existent fire that is our non-existent rivalry.

    As is all public spending. £32 million seems a bit much though doesn't it? I'd like to know where that number came from.

    Does surfing bring in that much money? I suppose they are trying to attract more tourists. I believe it's being fixed.

    i think the artificial reef doesn't quite develop the height of waves that it was intended to. The council were sueing the manufacturer to get it sorted.

    I would suggest they sink their dreams of going up out there, and see if that helps!
