Poor old Bournemouth

Getting hammered by Spurs, welcome to the world without Hoops to help

 

[Don Tmatter]

Nice little war chest in the summer to have a go at getting back up though.

To be fair Wilson out for the season has screwed them. And he'll probably get poached by a Prem team when he's fit again next season.

You mean pay off the contracts of the hundreds of players they've sold who will want out

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

My heart is bleeding ....... Profusely. Rarely have I felt so devastated at the abject humiliation of a plucky little football team.

 

[Icy Gull]

Could be us next season...

[Cheshire Cat]

Will be us if we ever went up.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Will be us if we ever went up.

I think not.

 

[Notters]

I think not.

Indeed, I think Tony has other ideas.

Not in the opinion of Warren Apinall on the radio yesterday. He pointed out they went up with nothing a ground and team that was not good enough for The Premier and no infastructure, ours is all in place so all efforts and finance can be dedicated to team strengthening when we get there.

Won't Tony want a bit back ? That's assuming you get there .

I doubt he is any different to the chairmen of all promoted clubs-doesn't always work out as they hope(d) though. We'd all hope Tony wouldn't let us go straight back down again after one season.

Got to get there first.

Not to begin with he wouldn't. He may be an astute and wealthy businessman but he is also a lifelong Albion fan.

I doubt that very much;he has put the money into the club because he is a fan and can afford it. Nobody has any idea of his wealth but surely he has not put anything like 50% of his total wealth into the club.

 

[Justice]

The advantage we have is our manager is capable of managing in the PL.

 

[fat old seagull]

Will be us if we ever went up.

Yep, pretty much what I thought about Crystal Plebs.

Anyway strange philosophy, are you suggesting we don't bother getting promoted?

 

[Wilko]

Not going to take the piss, would take being 4th from bottom in the prem this time next year. It is an achievement just to be there.

If you go up the money on offer will be the most ever , you reckon he won't want any of it ? Fan or not he's £200m+ out of pocket so I'm sure the payback would start .
