    OT - Buying kit/shirt with your favorite player's name and number.

    The club needs new-ish supporters/suckers like me build the coffers on over-priced goods and services. :smoke: In fact, AFCB made me pay for the rights to use this emoji because it was red.

    As of today, I can say I have a picture with one Bournemouth player. Therefore, I will be buying an Ake shirt.

    Is this the reason Jann was so popular? His name provided a very low Pound/Letter ratio.

    On a side note, apparently there is a father/son combo that attends games with "Big Carts" and "Mini Carts" on their shirts. There are a couple Brits with a podcast and TV show here who have pointed them out. Does anybody know them and are they aware of their minor celebrity here?

    I bought a plain 2015/16 one on clearance. I don't remember the timing - but I know I considered Ritchie. But I don't remember if I was afraid he wouldn't be on the team or if he had recently sold. Anyway, if Arter signs a new deal that might tip the sales. Cook is a solid candidate as well...

    OT - Buying kit/shirt with your favorite player's name and number.

    Back when I followed a American hand egg team, I loved to buy my favorite player's jersey. That's sort of a thing in the US at least. If I were to do that, I'd probably pick either Fraser or Arter. But how is the practice viewed in England?

    Before the arguments here grow too loudly, I want to pass my condolences and hopes for peace and serenity from across the pond.

    The very Britishness of it!

    That's what I tell myself every time I eat one! But the actual answer to that is that even the carrot isn't that healthy since that pepper/carrot/celery mixture is soaked in olive oil and other fatty material. But it's so yummy.

    I'd like to add that the American component of our ownership is from Chicago. We're always the most stable and agreeable because: A. We sit to the west of the east coast a-holes, east of the west coast flakes, and north of the southern "traditionalists". We have to work with all these...

    Maybe I'm slow to the party but this is fantastic

    That's the best I could do! :D

    On the US show "Men in Blazers", Nick Kroll professed to be a Bournemouth fan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Kroll

    Max-Alain Gradel

    He probably should not have been sent off in the 84th minute during the MN United friendly. The match was hardly confrontational and he acted very rashly. I can understand sticking with Fraser and Pugh on the left because of that alone.
