Much the better side, hopefully keep believing in themselves 2nd half & the moronic element of our fans don't get on their backs.

We can't keep coming from behind and bailing the defence out, they need to try doing their fucking jobs from time to time. Very very unlikely to come back and win against a team like Bournemouth. Hoping that comes back to bite me of course.

Yep unfortunately we don't have the money to compete with Bournemouth in that respect.

Hes been slow with his passing too, and they are pressing quickly.

We have been better but at same time is it more like a boxer peppering someone with weak shots and then the other guy hits a haymaker? Who was really in charge from the get go? Prob the KO artist.

We are good. We just not as good as Bournemouth are.

The attacking players could help out and finish more than 10% of their golden chances as well

Neither of them are good enough to be starters for a team looking to actually get promotion.

Not the script we were expecting, given that we have dominated the half. But Bournemouth have been clinical from just two opportunities. One where Smith went clean by Kane it must be said which Moore should have done better with,and a another gifted ball and cruel deflection for the second. At 0-2 it's a tough ask to come back and win. Bournemouth will know they are fortunate to be 2 up, and will get behind the ball second half and make it even tougher for us now.
We have nothing to lose and should just go for it. Sheaf and Hamer not been at their best. O'Hare should have scored. We must do better in the box.

I'm still going with my prediction of a 3-2 Cov win. I've seen nothing to change that .
If we get a goal fairly early on in the second half then God help Bournemouth.

We do everything except score, the opposition does nothing except score. Such has been the tale of many games.

Played very well and if we can score early after half time it’s game on.

Not sure why people are having a go at Allen. First 25 he was highly influential in stopping them playing and starting our breaks. He then made two poor passes and a poor cross. Yet O'Hare has given the ball away almost every time, shirked a couple of challenges and misses a golden opportunity.

Maybe if we wait for gifts from the Bournemouth defence, they will?

Reality is, none of our chances have been as good as the Bournemouth ones.

Out centre halves are poor. They just aren’t good enough at this level

The tactics are bizarre unless they just ignore robins. When Dabo plays he’s hardly going beyond their penalty area. Kane literally ends up at their by line.

Mastsen cant go down the line at all. Does he ever?

In the end though Hyam and Rose are not good enough - we let opponents have the odd chance abs they score - pathetic

That first half does kind of sum up the season. Dominated, played some great stuff, just not clinical enough in final third and the odd lapse of concentration at the back.

Still got it in us to do something second half though.

Exaggerating about their goalie a bit - he’s not actually taking that long over everything

Tells you everything about Bournemouth, on the brink of automatic promotion and they can't even come close to bringing enough support to fill their section of the ground. Pathetic.

Just saw their goal again in replay it looks like Lowe was Bidwells man and he should not have been beaten to it

More than can be for Hyam who was in no man’s land

I wouldn't be bothered if we moved either or both of Rose and Hyam on in the summer. Hyam has improved loads this year but he needed to. They must be the least intimidating centre backs in the league. I'd say we need at least 3 signings in that position in the summer.

Disagree. They're both agile and good on the ball. If you want a 6ft7 monster then fine but that won't help the way we play.
