Sir Geoff

Bournemouth doing pretty well with an American owner.

Exactly. It was the outlier not the norm. I guess like the rest of us Tinnion slept through the Millwall game.

"Like being managed by a robot "

Or cash out when the odds tumble further, if we lose to WBA and Leicester.

You're forgetting that we still have to play 5 of those teams. So you could argue that they only have to make up 3 points , then beat us.

47/48 points would guarantee relegation. 52 to be sure with our GD worth an extra point.

Couldn't actually do any worse though could they.

You may well be right, but I thought I'd heard Tinnion talk about it earlier than that and thought that Pearson alluded to it in an interview a while back.

Nah, decent analogy but surely it was his box of bright, shiny new crayons.

The comments made about a style of play was made by Tinnion whilst Pearson was still here. They then hired a manager that was alien to that style of play.

Holden was 1.34 ppg. 29 games 39 points.

Yep

He is.

Other way round.

Post of the decade.

So please do tell what improvements you see in Tommy's game since Manning arrived.

Should certainly be starting ahead of Knight in the advanced no.10 role. With Wells not instead of.

Welcome back. We've missed you the last couple of weeks.

Extrapolated over 46 games is 64.4 points. Top 8 / 10.

There was one, but everyone fell asleep, so it never got published.

So your alternative to changing the manager is to change the squad. How many would you change ? What if they don't want to leave or no one wants to buy them ? Which players do you suggest need changing ? Surely it is easier to change the manager to one that suits the way the squad / club has aligned us (style of play) over the past 12/18 months

And only 3 or 4 of those could be called 'young up and coming managers'. Rodgers, Adkins (maybe), Parker, Edwards possibly 5 if you include Cooper but he was at Swansea for 2 years prior.

But that's exactly what we did on the other side under Pearson and people on here complained about playing long ball. Max would ping it out to Pring who was positioned on the half way line. We either won the second ball , the ball would go out for a throw in 50/60 yards upfield or Pring would win the header and Bell would be 'on his bike' ready to chase after it down the wing. Now as you rightly say we progress 4 yards by playing 48 sideways passes, 16 triangles and waste several minutes doing it.

PM'd you. Happy to help.

Matt (club representative) Withers. Don't tell me he is turning against Manning, after telling us for months on 3 peaps that he was enjoying the football and could see what Manning was Trying to do. His Co hort stated on RB Saturday that Manning should be given more time.
