    A managerial stepping stone...

    I'm intrigued by the talk of Wagner. He got Huddersfield promoted, survived one season in the Premier League, then left them eight points adrift of safety the season after. He goes to Shalke and is sacked after a run of 18 games without a win. Other than being a fresh face, what am I missing as...

    Next Manager Betting Odds

    I do remember seeing a job advert asking for someone to call a member of the press an 'Ostrich' ...other than that, I see no use for Nigel Pearson at Dean Court.

    He's gone

    In two minds about the news. I was all for giving Jason a chance. It was the decision made by the board (rightly or wrongly at the time) and it was better to get behind the management and team than waste energy being against it. Yes, Jason was very unproven as a number one, we know of his...

    Rotherham United v AFC Bournemouth

    Ads have sound but nothing on the coverage. Assuming an issue linking to the radio audio?

    Joshua King

    ...the sun is shining and the rose-tinted specs are clearly on. You also called me deluded when I questioned his attitude earlier in the summer. I think this last week has justified it, he is the last in the "spoilt brat" club that we have at Bournemouth and has a choice. 1) Accept no one...

    Joshua King

    It will be interesting to see if we get a bid. The fact West Ham are the only ones who have been reported as making a bid for King says a lot. As others have said, the atmosphere in the team seems really strong - if he stays, I hope that can continue.

    Great thread, thanks for starting it. Have been playing catch-up but really enjoyed looking back at the various grounds.

    Joshua King

    He's been a very good striker, but come on...he's not the best striker we've ever had. A comparison between our two most notable strikers in recent years: Callum Wilson - Premier League Goals 41, Assists 12, Appearances 126 Josh King - Premier League Goals 48, Assists 14, Appearances 161...

    AFC Bournemouth v Blackburn Rovers

    Forgive me, but what is COWS? I see it referenced a lot, but have no idea how to access it.

    The Buffering Streaming Service

    Any time Derek Holmes scored and what felt like the entire stadium united in singing "Nice one Derek..." James Hayter hattrick vs Wrexham. My first game at the old Dean Court, standing in the "New Stand" and instantly knowing that the club was in my blood from that moment on!

    AFC Bournemouth v Blackburn Rovers

    I'm thinking possibly this?

    Joshua King

    True, but we have other players on international duty who still reported for training with the club initially.

    Found it - really don't see anything wrong, a lighthearted joke in my opinion.

    Promotion

    I'm really positive for the season. As others have said, the players that have gone were always very likely to leave and I would hope the club considered this in their plans for the season. Yes, King and Brooks could still leave, but our pre-season has been positive without them. It might not...
