I normally don't respond to your posts - but since you've chosen to attack me personally I'll make a few comments, only I won't be abusive, rude or downright nasty as you have chosen to be.
1. Re 20th century fans - I saw my first game in 1968 and have been going home and away ever since.
2. I have absolutely no idea what a "Cherries Elitist" is but the majority of those 56 years were obviously in the bottom two divisions.
3. Had you actually read my post carefully you would have noticed that I was weighing up the potential impact of European involvement on our squad depth next season and our capacity to sustain that.
4. I'm not sure you grasped the irony.
5. Of course I'd love us to progress and be in Europe, I simply question our readiness this time around.
6. I openly invited opinions - not vitriol and abuse.
7. I taught for 40 years on the back of four years in higher education and nobody called me supercillious or a cretin.
Please don't bother responding to my posts again, I have absolutely no interest in the opinions of someone so utterly disrespectful
