The weird thing is I liked him in defence. He’d be pretty much man of the match for 99% of the game but then would do something stupid that usually ended up costing us. Just felt like if he cut that out of his game we’d be sorted. However seems to be thriving in the midfield, very often drops in to that central defence spot to receive a ball and get us forward aswell so it’s best of both worlds.

Looked decent whenever I’ve seen him play, however 2 goals in 22 games this season? What’s happened there? Has he been in and out the side much?

Did he play against arsenal in the Europa? Or any of the group games for that matter? Bloody good free signing if so.

He’s upgraded massively. Fair play bents.

Its funny that the 2nd yellow for Blackburns defender was a softer challenge, and probably less contact than the Wells penalty incident. Just seems when we get in the box fouls don't count. Shouldn't matter where it is on the pitch. Anyway, you just know when we do get a penalty it will probably be the softest challenge going, or a handball that wasn't a handball and whoever takes it will sky it over the bar. There is no way we are scoring this penalty, its destined to go viral on twitter after all the media attention we've brought to it.

It’s not wrong but you can’t say it.

Semenyo has apparently agreed a 50k pw contract. We know all about Semenyo and we can see the potential. However looking at it from a Bournemouth POV ings would be better. Proven at that level, same amount of money and wages would be near the same. Only thing really Semenyo has is the potential, if he does really well they can sell him on.

Surprised we didn’t take that… especially considering West Ham have got Ings for 12m today. I know if I was a Bournemouth fan who I’d rather they spend that money on out of the 2.

I think we’ll hold out for 12m with bonuses if they stay up. Surely we can get 3/4 added on for that clause?

I rate it pezo, me and you need to meet up in A Block and get it started

I mean it doesn't matter what we say here as im yet to see a song for a player that has started on OTIB haha but I'll chuck "Travis - Sing" in there as its probably the easiest song to remember We've got Cam Pring, pring, pring, pring, pring, pring For the love you bring won't mean a thing Unless you've got Pring, pring, pring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYO1-gGWJyo,

I like Tanner a lot, decent squad player who can hopefully one day make that right back spot his own. Also worth remembering we have Kane Wilson to come back as well, so hopefully between them 2 we have solid competition for a good few yers to come.

This is a tough one, if he goes now I think we're done for. We need him desperately on the pitch, without him our attack looks awful. 15 million though... don't think we can turn that down. Chuck on a possible 25 million for Scott, 40 million, im assuming sorts us right out to actually spend some money in the summer? Then that's just gambling if we remain in the league or not ? tough decision to make either way.

I pray to god this is finally it, we're starting to turn the corner and Nige is finally getting a tune out of the squad... HOWEVER. I've seen this many times before throughout his time here so im not getting carried away with it. Bit of good form is all this could be. If there was an actual fence, im on the side where I think Pearson needs to go, but my feet aren't on the floor yet ? Only because I know Pearson is a good manager, he's proven it, just hasn't proven it here yet in my opinion, some might say otherwise and that's fair enough. Either way I think its now, a bit too late to get rid of him. If we just about limp over the line and stay up, then I think he has to go, certainly has to go if we go down. We need to genuinely get ourselves between 10th-16th for me to believe he can take this club forward, because everyone in those positions currently, aren't better than us player for player. That was our first home win since the beginning of October. In my heart I want to believe things will start to get better, in my head im thinking this is just a tiny bit of good form and it'll be back to normal come February. Time will tell. Also for what its worth, win or lose against Swansea im not assed and won't sway me either way with Nige.

Draw or United win please. Followed by an Arsenal win tomorrow.

Now that would be the dream move. They don't mess around when it comes to clubs buying their players. They also seem to develop them properly. I like Scott but I don't think he's BVB level.... yet anyway. 18-22 million and I think we'll do alright, obviously with a big ol sell on fee. Just a shame now we're watching and Scott and Semenyo knowing they'll be off soon rather than thinking lets build the squad around them and go for it next season. Them leaving should help the club massively, so we're quite fortunate to have them here. Imagine the future without them... might just give us a chance, should we stay up, to actually start the process of a rebuild properly.

I get the feeling we are just pretty much impossible to buy? We’ve lumped ourself in to Bristol sport so whoever wants to buy us would also have to buy the rugby, basketball and women’s team as well. Along with I’m assuming the stadium and the future redevelopment? Seems a bit weird for Steve to ask for investors, who would want too? If you’ve got that sort of money surely you want to have as much control of what goes on as possible? Not just put millions in to something and let, what has currently been for god knows how long, a club that has failed to achieve anything handle it? The last interview SL had regarding all this, to me anyway, came across like he was coming to an end with everything regarding us and the BS model. Yet some are saying he doesn’t want to lose full control over it? Everything just seems very weird to me. Either sell it all to someone and just become a fan, or continue as you are. If he’s been looking for 2.5 years and there’s still nobody wanting to invest, then there never will be. Sounds like he needs to have a rethink about the way forward. Can’t just hold on to the club if he isn’t 100% committed anymore.

Time for him to flop with portugals golden generation now like he did with Belgiums. Blokes an absolute fraud

Meh, atleast we’re in the draw. If we get a decent tie then go for it. If it’s Blackpool then send the kids to Swansea

Jesus wept, if only we knew Swansea had a competition winner in goal from the get go. Shoot on sight City ?

No way we just took a quick corner at 1-0 down with 2 players in the box….

Tbf they are controlling the game. We gifted them a goal and they can see we aren’t much of a threat. They look like they’ll just play it out now and coast.

Absolutely deluded if you think the footballs better now than it was under Holden. It was crap under Holden, absolutely pathetic now.

You can when it’s been going on now for 20 months ?

That’s called having a bit of form not improvement. Ain’t no good having a few good games then going straight back to boring, hopeless football. Holden got the boot for doing a better job than this.
