    Safe standing

    I haven’t either, only because I flatly refused the indignity. can you imagine Bill being asked to take his off?

    Safe standing

    I’m 79 years old, been coming to DC since I was 12. I have never felt so angry at what is happening with regard to the degrading, insulting searching of us “customers”! “Can you take your hat off Sir?” What’s that about?? And this after trudging through the p*****g rain because someone thinks...

    New Club Badge ??

    I think the “1936-66” badge was the Bournemouth Coat of Arms “heraldic” Crest. Much simplified on the Red & Black 1971/72 retro kit.

    Sunderland v Newcastle

    Well I’m colour blind ZZ, and black most certainly does give problems with any dark colour. Its about colour tones and shades I find, e.g.: A mid-shade brown and a mid-shade green give me probs, as do brown & reds, blues & purples, the list goes on. Football generally does not cater for colour...

    Blast from the past penalty through handball.

    My memory of it had Micky Cave touching the ball, it was at the South End and they scored. I’ve been wrong before mind…

    Bill Foley

    I get really f****d off whenever ND offers any sort of comment/Opinion, up jumps SDD to shoot him down. Now I’m not in love with Neil but I’ll read his comments with interest and although sometimes I may not necessarily agree with him, I’ll tolerate it and move on. But SDD just cannot allow ND...

    Bill Foley

    I’m not sure about Oslo but I know a fair few people in Bergen who are proud to wear our colours and regularly make the trip to DC! Great people, Great country.

    John Sainty

    I don’t remember if it was before his Hat-Trick that day at ‘Shots or whatever but he got involved in a full-blooded challenge with one their finest, who went to ground like a pole-axed rabbit, screaming for a foul, our JS stood over him waving the W*****r hand right in front of the “Main...

    Scott Parker

    Dead right. Tbf I thought SP was a bit odd, but he got us promoted with a squad that would clearly need upgrading for the EPL, as this wasn’t forthcoming, he resorted to his public “outbursts” resulting in his sacking. He could see what was coming, along with most of us fans. What followed was...

    Neto

    I agree, Travers has not deserved to be dropped, quite happy with him. Parachuting Neto into last nights game was a risk I thought. Playing the ball around our box as we did was suicidal, he’s only been here 10 minutes, how can he be comfortable with that? He wouldn’t be anywhere near a...

    Black shirts

    I’m also colour blind, Cherries kit choice on Saturday was awful for me! Who actually picks what can be worn regarding opposing teams? We have Woke this and Bame that, where everyone must accept and respect different groups of our society, falling over backwards to avoid upsetting anyone, but...

    Millwall tickets

    Hi all, I have three Norwegian friends coming over on the weekend of the Millwall fixture, they have been here many times in the last ten or twelve years and have managed to watch the Cherries on most of these occasions. One of them has a ticket for the match but I am hoping to obtain a couple...

    Joshua King

    Callum Wilson scored 8 goals in 35 matches during our relegation season, that's inconsistent! Eddie persisting with him when it was obvious he was so off-form was probably the prime cause of our going down. When Josh King played down the middle during the 2016/17, in Wilsons absence, he scored...
