It’s a three game ban so I guess so. Who’s your charity?

Given the amount they're losing season after season, it doesn't take a first-class accountant to realise he needs to be richer.

The Wolves owner pumped the amount he did into the club because he's worth over £9bn. Slight difference.

Also why should I worrying about "disrespecting" anyone? This ain't rugby mate, I ain't in this to make friends with other teams fans.

I guess we’ll see who’s right in a few years’ time. Didn’t stop Villa spunking over £70 million on wages two years on the trot in this league

They nearly paid the price for that though. In less than two years they came close to facing administration, and were forced to cover up losses with a dubious stadium sale in order to comply with the Championship's P&S rules.

Beaten by a better team. Let ourselves down with a sending off. Did enough to suggest we will be fine this season

Why a soft spot for Cov out of interest?

Play like you did for the rest of the season and you'll bounce back up no problem.

Bournemouth will go up this season or will eventually disappear back to where they came . This is 1 big shot at getting back for them. They probably should be good enough, but cant afford not to

We don't mind being tinpot as at a matter of fact its our second name....the money all went on what you saw tonight on the pitch..not including those we sold for £80 million in the last month or so..

They got away with the latter because of a £56m stadium sale. Bournemouth have far less chips to gamble with.

As Derby showed you can pull a number out of the ether. As Man City show every season you can make up bullshit sponsorship agreements. More teams get away with this than get their fingers burned

We need to become more street wise. Go down and make a meal of things more.

Hamer should have just gone down after cook elbowed him. Need to be at the ref all the time when we are fouled.

look atBournemouth a player who should have been yellowed for two fouls went up at half time to complain about him not book g our player.

Exactly, the problem going forward isn't Godden, it's that were not going forward.

You were bankrolled up the leagues, you're no plucky underdogs.
You should go up this season, indeed you'd have stayed up if you gave Howe the boot at the right time.
Agree broadly with your assessment on us, we gave you too much respect even though you player for player were better than us.

It’s great that Robins wants to play a passing game, and play out from the back, but Bournemouth were switched on to it and we couldn’t deal with their press. The amount of suicidal passes between our back 5 was ridiculous. 3-1 was flattering for us. Against a strong opposition (which Bournemouth are) we need to be able to mix it up more. However with Godden isolated we had no answer. His half time subs were like-for-like. Would of liked to seen Kelly and Bakayoko to be honest.

The wing backs need to be gambling more, if they don't move up the pitch we've got no out ball, both of them were painfully conservative.

The one time we got Giles forward first half and gave Sheaf an out ball we created a chance (albeit via a great touch from O'Hare)
