It was like we were playing a different species tonight Pete. Taller, stronger, faster. We need another 9 Gus Hamer style transfers.

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?

Dabo was our worst defender tonight. He looks good and strong maurading forward but all over the place defensively.

They still owe £80m in transfer repayments, and the majority of their players are on in excess of £20-30K per week. Some are on even more than that. Their turnover to wages ratio must be eye watering.

So, it's irrelevant how much their owners are worth as Bournemouth are just as subject to the P&S rules as clubs the size of Wycombe will be.
Click to expand...

Who gives a shit about their accounts?! We don't support them! They still had 100m worth of talent on the pitch tonight that's the only factor that matters to us surely. I don't care who they sell from now on they are running in different circles than us.

Don't think we did that badly despite the massive gap in squad quality

They didn't even have to get out of first gear to comfortably beat us. Most Bournemouth fans on social media calling it their most comfortable win in years. Yes, they're obviously a much better side than us, and I don't mind losing to good sides if we play well or at least give a good account of ourselves, but that was dire tonight.

They would have run rings round Kelly tonight. Kelly is a brilliant lower league player where he can read slow, stupid footballers, anticipate and nip in and win the ball. Against most top half teams in this league, he won't get near them. It'll be the single biggest issue this year across the whole team, lack of pace.
Click to expand...

I tend to agree with you that pace/skill/better players will be an issue when we face the better teams. Luckily for us, I don't think they are all like that, although unfortunately -(Brentford included) there are probably 6-10 teams who are. It is the other teams that we must challenge, and pick up what we can against the better ones.

Why do you care what a few cunts who 10 years supported Southampton say on twatter? Plus they haven't won many ganmes it the last year or so it's not that big a thing really.

In fairness if you expected anything other than what happened tonight you are going to have a long hard season. We are going to lose more than we win this year and it shouldn’t come as a big surprise. But hey you know 3 years ago we were losing to Newport at home and starting to ponder non league football

My point is shipley was no worse than seven others and you can add Allen to that from the second half. Stop having a boo boy and you won’t look daft. Shipley deserves a go as Allen not good enough. I think he’ll try walker and Godden up front with Ohare behind cause Allen and shipley are not good enough on current form
Click to expand...

I really wanted Allen to get a grip on the game but he didn’t do a lot. Hard to be critical I guess as he was chasing shadows a lot

No doubt they were far better but in no way could that have been 7-1. They didn't have that many clear chances.

That’s the thumping out of the way, outplayed and really could’ve conceded more. It’s smooth sailing from here now! Onwards and upwardly!

Not a disaster tonight. Bournemouth one of the best sides and scored good goals.

I hope this grounds some of our fans fantasies about getting promotion?

We can take lots of positives from this game.

No idea what you’re going on about

Shipley is shit
Shipley is the worst footballer in the world
Shipley is out of his depth

From you and I pointed out there were 7 others playing poorly why pick on him

Allen didn’t look fit

their first goal scorer cost £30m. They have played in the prem for the past few years. Of course it’s going to be more comfortable v Shipley than Kante

As I said - get them out of the way whilst Hamer is suspended. He'd have lost his rag with Toney and co anyway!!
