We're in a league awash with money against s team full of players who cost multi millions. Why do you think what worked in league should work well against

Always going to be a hard game and for some reason we went out in awe of them and almost beat ourselves. We looked a shadow of the team we can be. But they're clearly a huge amount ahead of us in terms of quality so 3-1, down to 10 and ref letting their players get away with some awful tackles/conduct and playing that poorly against a very good team could be worse.

Going to miss Hamer's set pieces in the next few games.

League 1 vs prem basically

Not happy with sloppy play but no disgrace in losing to a better team either

Shame about hamers red card tho. We need him.

Oh well Brentford next lol

I hope we can pull another ACM out of the bag. Not sure if Allen or Shipley will be good enough next to O’Hare for a few months at least.

People need to relax.

Bournemouth are a shoe in to win the league. They beat Norwich who were their main dangers last week.

The playing out from the back has been a mistake tonight, the Bournemouth press has ruined our usual play. They also did a great job of ruining any momentum we were getting, slowing the ball down at every opportunity and professional fouls.

The tackle on Dabo was vile, but it is a yellow card. Not violent enough for red but that cliche orange card tackle.

Hamer then gets unlucky, I think he is caught because he is pushed into the referees field of vision. I don't think he spits. He does need to get his head together though. He and Shipley are at fault for the 1st and him solely for the 3rd. I think he bottles that tackle because he has had all the bookings recently.

thought you meant it was player who tackled Dabo. That tackle was boarder line red. If player coming in on Hamer used forearm that should be red too.

Well I expected defeat. Still hurts like hell. Gifted them all 3 goals. We are a work in progress. Need Kelly back big time.

It was great to see Rose back into our defence. Ostigard gives the ball away too many times for my liking.
Allen just seems too light weight and ineffective tonight, I thought Shipley gave us more options.
We are going to have tough days in this league and this was always going to be one.
International break and lets get Kelly back in for Hamer [who we'll really miss].

Think we might struggle physically this season it's not only a step up in quality but also in athleticism. We look a little lightweight in some positions and I have a feeling we might need to up the shithousery against teams like Bournemouth otherwise we will be punished

So for skyblue Pete and his cohorts, I thought we looked like the Brazilian team of the 1970 World Cup, I can't find one fault in our team, and if we don't win the Champions League in 2023 I'm going to give up

He pushed him with enough force to send hamer back into two other players. Hamer lifted his hand. Aggression from one player and he didn’t get sent off

No need to look at their accounts when their match day squad today cost 90 million plus.

Today was what counted, we were miles behind before a ball was kicked. Wouldn't have been a disaster if Hamer hadn't lost his fucking mind

The result was expected, although I'd have hoped for a bit more from a few of the players in all honesty. Losing Hamer for the 3 games we have coming up is a disaster though, fucking idiot.

To be fair they've barely spent any of the money they've received from player sales/parachute payments on new additions. Looking at the dire state of their accounts I don't expect them too either.

The majority of this squad is inherited from last season.

Yes but 92million compared to 2.5! They didn’t need to spend anymore

Kelly makes a difference in there. I think robins will look at an attacking midfielder before the transfer window out. Allen and shipley aren’t good enough.

Rose looked assured and hyam excellent dabo off the pace. McCallum will be in for Giles after the break he was poor defensively tonight.

We need much more mobility all over the pitch dont we?
