Easily offended much?!

I might be in one of these pictures, please deleted it immediately ?

I think he was at fault for not dealing with an earlier corner which then led to the next one

His flapping at one corner allowed Birmingham to win another corner from which they scored! It’s also not just his kicking. At least twice he throw the ball out that was intercepted and led to attacks. He really isn’t a very good keeper.

Obviously not, what’s your point?

… to get: Goalkeeper - MOL is a liability. Gets an easy ride as he came through the youth team. In reality he is not good enough to start championship football week in week out. Distribution is shocking, put us in trouble a number of times today. A myth that be commands his box. We need an upgrade asap Scott replacement - We all knew he would leave for big money. Plans for his replacement surely must have been under discussion months ago. Knight was not Scott’s replacement. If anything he was HNM. We cannot create anything and have three identical midfielders starting. Striker - Bell is not a striker as shown today. Wells is three years past being anywhere near the standard needed. An option off the bench but should not be starting. Conway’s injury was bad luck but he will be out for a while. We have a squad barely capable of competing. Pinching 1-0 wins here and there will cover over cracks, not fix them. If paying fees are out the question then NP needs to swallow his pride and look at the loan market for quality.

Every team has to abide with FFP, stop using this as an excuse! We have been awful for 2 out of 3 league games

For this to come out in the way it has, surely Betway would have to be pretty certain of dodgy dealings?

Being invested for deliberately getting booked with high value bets being put on him. https://x.com/xmonicamusic/status/1692623968203608540?s=46&t=Nmk5VGsjVveZetscixCB6A Simple question is… why?! £100k a week is enough to support you and your family for a lifetime over and over. Why do something so stupid to make more money. Blackmail maybe, or threats against his family? Anything else is unforgivable!

A lot of people on here easily upset… personally I think that is a great video on there part to announce the signing. Also think they will compete well this season. Obviously hope not but come on. Who isn’t missing a proper league derby game?!

This has been a tough read and has bought a tear to the eye. I’ve never been in the position Porto and Robin are in, but I’ve a child who’s tried to overdose so this does hit hard. I know her reasons for it and every day is a struggle for her, but I’m honest with her and tell her I don’t understand why she would rather not be here with her family and friends and would want to put them through the hurt. She tells me it’s something she can’t explain in a way I would ever understand and unless you have been to that place you just won’t ever understand. When I feel things are “normal” I get a call out the blue to say she is having one of her episodes and all you can do is watch her and hope she does nothing stupid. I wouldn’t want to patronise @Porto Red and @robinforlife2 with words that won’t help, but hope you both manage to find it in yourselves, or in someone else, to deal with your situations in a positive way.

Scott Brown’s dad was always in the stand supporting him when he was with us. He was never there supporting city, he was supporting his lad. Enjoy watching his career progress regardless of who it is with.

Another one who only sees football as stats!

Agree with all of this other than having a stronger squad. Quantity doesn’t equal quality. With the exception of Dickie and Knight on Saturday it was the same starting 11 that struggled last season. Knight instead of Scott isn’t an improvement, Dickie over Atkinson remains to be seen but I dint think for one second we are stronger. It’s a myth!

I don’t get this wage bill limit rubbish, but then again I don’t run a football. However, if £20/£25m doesn’t allow you to change that wage bill I would be amazed!

Wasn’t at the game tonight but sounds like he had a stormer. Pring wasn’t at his best vs Preston and Nige said before tonight’s game it’s down to the players to take the opportunity given to them. So who starts at left back on Saturday out of the two of them???

Who is putting Scott in their fantasy football team then???

It’s not nice losing a player like Scott. A generational talent. To us Bournemouth are a small club, much like the Luton fans when we signed Naismith, or Derby fans when we signed Knight. Will be a pleasure watching his career develop from afar.

However, this only turns into a good move for us if the money is reinvested into a few decent signings. Scott replacement, keeper and now cover for Conway, be it a loan or permanent signing.

Playing premier league football? I thought it was a strange move at first but most the “experts” are predicting a 13th/14th place finish for Bournemouth this season. Of course that doesn’t guarantee anything but certainly not one of the favourites to go down.

They’d be more disappointed than us!

I guess time will tell

And today we played badly and was fortunate to come away with a draw against one of the poorer teams in the league. People have a right to voice frustration…

Not doom and gloom, just a truly awful performance

Absolutely awful
