fatchers Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 At the end of the day,so they say, we have to ignore Media click bait speculation about mega bucks offers. Clubs did not make any attempt to out bid Bournemouth. The market value is what we got. Perhaps if Antoine was a prolific goal scorer we would have got another 5 or 6 million but he isn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why arent we? well you have to look right to the top to find that out, unless we change our build policy we going no-where while "lesser" clubs pass us by. We seem to be getting worse not better the plan aint working. We missed the boat I’m afraid. We gambled, we failed. We are having to restart, rebuild, balance the books. We could be Bradford, Sheffield Wed, Barnsley, Bolton, Charlton, Portsmouth, etc 50 minutes ago, Rossi the Robin said: Cracking bit of business, bought for nothing and £10 million made I would have preferred 12-15 million as that’s what I had in my own head as a valuation prior to the sale, but I’m no valuation expert He would have been sold anyway and if we didn’t have FFP issues would have probably held the on for a bit more, but not in a position to I guess until the accounts come out it’s gonna be hard to know what the fee was. It wouldn’t surprise me if Nige’s comments last week re Bournemouth-side leaking stuff was pointed…and they were told to keep negotiations out if the media. It wouldn’t surprise me if the fee is a bit higher than media are suggesting, and it works in our favour and Bournemouth’s if it’s out there as something less than it actually is. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNasty Filth Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 What happens if The Muff get relegated, does that mean Antoine has to take a pay cut? Bit of a precarious move for him imo, BM are a club that could easily fall back into obscurity if things don't go according to planned if they are in champ next season. Would he have something written into his contract stipulating he's allowed to leave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d still be on more than we would ever have offered him, and with parachute payments they’ll be challenging for automatic promotion while we fumble about in mid table (assuming we stay up). As much as I want them to I can’t see Bournemouth falling into obscurity in the short term, there’s too much money available to relegated Prem clubs to stop that happening.

Wanderingred Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 Bournemouth are a nothing club, no bigger than Gillingham, Walsall or Colchester. They’ll soon be back in their rightful place in League 1. Selling Semenyo will probably cost us our place in the Championship. Bad move for all parties concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 The fee is '2 clicks' under £9m. Not sure if that is with add on's or not. Certainly is on the lower side of some of the figures I've seen quoted on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the lad wanted a move to a Pemier League team and the only offer the club accepted was from Bournemouth then I suppose he may have felt that he didn't have much of a choice. But yes, he could've stayed which I feel would've been the wrong decision for him. It wasn't long ago he was set to join Chelsea for £2m. Whilst he may not have got the move to Chelsea in the end, he is now contracted to a Premier League club and it sounds as though it has worked out well for us too, considering what he could've gone to Chelsea for. Either way, not bad for a chap spotted on a 5-a-side pitch. Best of luck to him, the door opens for another of our prospects which is evidence the model is working.

Makes no odds to me as the PL isn't actually that much fun to be in, I'll still be watching no matter where we are. You're currently in the most enjoyable league (believe it or not). We'll see though. The new American owner is talking a big game about finally building a stadium that will meet the demand. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. We just have to be that club in the higher league. We have sorted the facilities - it’s the league position that we have failed to sort despite multiple managers and £millions.

He’s not physically as strong as Antoine (few his age are) but he’s a decent player & it means we would immediately have the replacement we would need with Conway out long term & Martin out of favour?

deadredfred Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Just reading the Bournemouth match report and sounds like Semenyo had a good game and was unlucky not to score… ‘Semenyo's tremendous solo run midway through the second period deserved a better outcome - but the former Bristol City player was thwarted by Estupinan's block.’ He’s also scored 6.80/10 in the Beeb’s ratings. Almost a full point more than any other Bournemouth player (for context, Brightons match winner Mitoma got 8.1). Look forward to MOTD later. Well done Antoine! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.D Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 I was at the Brighton game today and didn't think he was all that, in fact Bournemouth were pretty poor with 8 behind the ball and waiting for the counter. His first touch was poor and he should have set the other player up after his run but all round looked fairly average.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citywest30 Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) Watched it a few times and still can't decide whether he should have passed or shot. Covering defender positioned himself well. Pass would have had to have been weighted to perfection. Don't blame him for having a go himself.
