Bournemouth (A) 22/2, Build Up & Match Thread

[Alan]

Despite events I’m not sure the personnel is right.

Yeah, I’m not sure Marshma- I mean, Marshall is really a starting XI guy. At this level I’d bet his best moments will come as a sub, against tired-ish defenders.

Gomes off at half time.

If he makes it to half time…

 

[The Bear]

Into 4 minutes of injury time and Doherty decides to make a forward run and stay up there for about 2 mins! Fuck sake get back!

 

[The Bear]

Bournemouth setting up to needle players into bookings for the rest of the game then.

 

[Jinky]

Yep, take Joao off at half time - he’s embarrassing himself.

Drop Bellegarde back in to centre mid next to Andre and put JSL up top.

Vic's got this right today. We are battling them everywhere on the park.

 

[Alan]

Vic?

 

[Jinky]

Ref definitely evening it out in the second half.

 

[Squeak]

Well done boys... tough opening spell...weathered it and then started to show a bit of quality over the brutal attacks by Bournemouth thugs. Let's hope we can hang on and utilise the space.

 

[Langers]

Don't like the play acting, Joao - you're better than that.

 

[C.L.D]

Cunha and Evanilson having a chat at HT?

 

[prawnking]

The Vitality has all the intimidating atmosphere of the Poundland Bescot

 

[Muscat]

Ref definitely evening it out in the second half.

This has a red to even it up written all over it. Need to keep our heads. If Gomes comes out for the second half we should sack Vitor on the spot.

If Gomes comes out for the second half we should sack Vitor on the spot.

I'm glad you're not playing, with that kind of calm, reasoned thought process

 

[Lycan]

Vic?

Victor Peartree

 

[Dire Wolf]

We've done alright. I missed the first 10-15 minutes but from what I have seen we've looked ok. Definitely a red IMO. Doherty with a great block and then a couple of WTF moments, as per Doc. Maybe I'm in a minority, or maybe he was terrible in the first 15 minutes so I missed him bring rubbish, but for all the 'Santi is shit' panic in the lead up to this game, I think he's looked pretty solid.

 

[SSB]

I’d be just as worried about Bueno getting a second yellow.

 

[The Bear]

Santi has been fairly solid so far. It's Doc who's had a couple of poor moments so far.

 

[Alan]

Victor Peartree

Victor Peartree and the Old Gold Canines are my favorite ska band

 

[YoungWolf]

Think we were the better side even before the red. Good to see we’ve taken advantage of it too. Huge 45 ahead
