[You'll Never Beat McPake]

Are we actually playing tonight or are Bournemouth just playing themselves. Sky Sport coverage is shite!!

I'm trying to find any way to watch this without paying those bastards. Struggling so far.

We're also listed on VIPleague

 

[shmmeee]

People get worked up about the strangest things

They've just been in the Premier league for years, of course they're going to get more attention than us. It's really nothing to get your knickers in a twist about

Disagree. Broadcasters shouldn’t pick favourites IMO. They should be neutral.

He's doing a Ben Stevenson 'sick note' prior to a move, I reckon. Doesn't want to be injured before the transfer window.

Leon Clarke also did that.

They are talking about CCFC next

“oohhh haven’t they done well coming from L2”

Calling it now.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Clinton just called Robins... Mr Gumpy lol...

 

[larry_david]

Have they mentioned taking the knee yet

 

[Skybluefaz]

Really hope Shipley takes this chance. A lot of us have asked for him to be given a run in the 10 role.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Mark Robins coldsore

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

A bit surprised that Billing isn't starting for them either - he's a very decent player

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Really don’t wish to be reminded of Freddie Eastwood

Yes they should be neutral, but just because they talk about one team more than another does not mean they have a favourite.

If Liverpool were playing Fulham, for example, they'd talk much more about Liverpool than they would Fulham, that's just a fact

You can take the credit or the blame. All your genius/fault! As an aside, I bet Shippers gets a yellow for a shirt/arm pull. You read it here first!

No. I’d expect that if it was an England game or whatever, but they should be neutral and talk about both teams equally. Or they should advertise it as a show for Bournemouth fans and let us have the stream for iFollow.

Has this woman presenter got this gig because of her sex? It can’t be because of her presenting skills

Its to keep her away from the fridge for a couple of hours

 

[Great_Expectations]

Quietly optimistic for tonight. In theory we have little chance, but if we can play our football I’d back us against most teams

Be interesting to see if we use the follow the same tactic as a few games ago (intentional or not) where we sit back first half and come out and impose ourselves second as they tire.

A draw would be a great result.

I’d like Baka to get the nod to come on over Walker today too. Walker isn’t sharp enough yet and Baka seems up for it this season. Or alternatively both and go two up when Godden/Shipley tire.

2-2.

Interesting Hamer stats

Looking a steal so far

And Bournemouth whilst having more money, are not a bigger club in stature than us anyway... That made me laugh

He showed the ability last season, the lad don't like a tackle but he does have a decent touch and an eye for a pass. I'll happily take the credit/chuck him under the bus after the game. It's what we do. Think you are correct on the yellow mind. He loves a bit of that.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

It has been ridiculously one sided so far on sky. Actually wishing Richard Keys was presenting.

 

[Tommo1993]

Pleased about Shipley starting.

10,000 at home games in the PL, joke propped up by an oil baron

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Lol the flag

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Posh podcasters on after the game

 

[Philosoraptor]

lol the flag!

 

[shmmeee]

Fucking potato quality stream from Sky there

 

[Liquid Gold]

Allen hasn't been good enough in fairness, but the thought of Shipley playing terrifies me.

I like him in those attacking two, doesn't have the same emphasis on keeping the ball and getting stuck in. He also loves to push the defence back which gives God space and gets a few shots of his own off.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Hamer has created the most chances in the Championship by a margin of 3. V impressive start! Half of those have come from corners I imagine.

Of course Bournemouth are a bigger club right now ffs. It's crazy to suggest otherwise. One has just spent 5 years in the Premier league and has a starting XI worth almost £100m and the other was in the fourth tier a few years ago.

Take off your sky blue tinted glasses.

 

[Evo1883]

If you listen to this, you'd think we were away at anfield in the Cup, it's quite frankly absurd talk

 

[chiefdave]

Christ, I'd forgotten how terrible this presenter was the other week.

Also does anyone know how many divisions apart us and Bournemouth were last season? Sky haven't mentioned it.

 

[mrtrench]

Bournemouth playing Bournemouth this evening from the amount of time they've been blowing smoke up their arse. We are only mentioned in terms of being a sacrificial lamb.

 

[Evo1883]

Nobody thinks Bournemouth are bigger than city... Let's be honest
