    Match Thread Bournemouth (H) Easter Monday

    Can't escape the fact it was a really disappointing performance. We were well below par. Nothing to do with salaries, seems to be the go to excuse. Yes they are a better side, but this obsession some have with how much money players earn, it's no excuse for not turning up. That said, season...

    Bournemouth attendance

    27-30 will be sold out before gates open I'd say. There are hundreds in the queue and this is where they'll all be buying. Hope you're right and it all goes smoothly though.

    Bournemouth attendance

    Given the obvious demand, you'd think the potg allocation will go. I think they are already selling the closed blocks in North stand, and behind the goal will fill. The main issue now is time, 3 or 4 ticket office staff can probably only shift 350-400 tickets an hour.

    Bournemouth attendance

    There was always going to be a massive queue this morning. There are some people who still don't buy online and ticket office has been closed for 3 days. Loads turned up Saturday trying to buy tickets.

    Bournemouth attendance

    It'll be the 2nd or 3rd highest attendance out of the 30 football league fixtures tomorrow. Not sure what people are expecting. We're also selling out every game on the road at the moment with ease. If it weren't for limited allocations we'd be taking huge followings right now. It is a...

    Match Thread Bournemouth (H) Easter Monday

    Already looking like biggest crowd of the season 2 days out. Can imagine a big bank holiday walk up too. Haven't won 3 on the bounce all season, so no better time to do it.

    Are we getting a name for ourselves off the pitch?

    It's bizarre that you're being rounded on here. All you seem to be doing is suggesting there is no connection between this mad isolated incident and scenes where groups of City fans run across the A444 to bash Blackburn fans on the head. Not sure where the controversy is.

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    I get that some feel we should borrow and have a punt. I don't think it is time though. There are clubs in this division on a cliff edge, many are about to implode. We're not, so let's not panic. The parachute payment clubs, well we just can't get near them, so why even try. A period of...

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    Absolutely, no doubting that. There is no magic money tree. Living within our means is not what many fans want, but it is the reality. I was merely addressing the accusation that we're a club that always sells below market value. I think we've been shrewd in the transfer market. Selling...

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    I've conceded this point in my edited post. It doesn't change the fact that within any transfer deal there is a basic transfer fee that is payable regardless. What that was in the McCallum transfer is not clear based on the link you have posted which contradicts the original reports. With young...

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    Now who doesn't understand how transfers work 😂. Some things are conditional based on performances, certain milestones, international performances and then there are sell on fees etc. But there is also a fixed transfer fee, they still have to pay for the player regardless of how often they play...

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    No, I know how transfers work, just like if someone pays us £8 million for Gyok, the payements would be phased, and there may also be add ons and conditions. That's how ALL transfers work. It doesn't escape the fact the deal for McCallum was worth up to £4 million, widely reported in the...

    Nonsense, stop making stuff up.

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    And we're yet to sell a player of note at this level, so let's see what happens when we do. The last 2 departures were 3 years ago and were great business were they not?

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    Sorry, you're right I've just checked, it was £3.74 million.

    If Callum O’Hare……..

    What does that even mean? A player is only worth what another club is willing to bid for them. The club can choose to accept it or they don't. I'm not sure there are many examples of the club selling on the cheap. The last big player sales of note were 3 years ago. We got £4 million for...

    Championship 21/22

    On the contrary, the inaction in January is looking to be a very smart indeed. We're so far away from being play off contenders that to have spunked money we didn't have chasing a lost cause could have done a lot of damage.

    Spare ticket for tonight

    One of our group has had to drop out tonight so I have one spare ticket at face value (£28.00). Ideally don't want to meet at Forest as not sure what plans are before game, but also have a small window for collection. If you can collect from Ash Green between 2.15pm and 2.45pm it's yours...

    Bit of nonsense and goading behind the police on the car park as per, city fans then ushered under the subway to opposite side of a444. Just a bit of goading and missile throwing then it appeared a lone city fan was being given a hiding and it went off. A load of cov ran across the road, some...

    Substitutions

    It's a strange argument you're making, that you can't bring on fresh legs or look to change the shape because the people on the bench aren't worthy of the tag 'game changer'. Thought Sheaf might have come on, or is he shit again now? We had a couple of players treading water most of the second...
