They wouldn't come back Alsopp hates the cov fans following his constant abuse - from a very reliable source. McQuoid would be ok if there was some pace in the side. Couibaly worth a punt
What an achievement for both player and club. Who'd have thought that little old Bournemouth would be gracing the Premier League with their 11,000 stadium in 2015?
Really pleased for Wilson who has been outstanding. It just goes to show what disgraceful businessmen SISU are... Under £3m for someone who must now be worth 5 times that amount. Bloody Asombalonga went for £5.5m and he hasn't done half as well as Callum.
At least we used the money to buy an able replacement...
their biggest problem is going to be holding onto the manager.
Nobody cares right? Apart from youThink some of you should pioneer the supporting of an individual player rather than a team. Embarrassing.
Where are all those idiotic fans that everytime we mention wilson they say 'we should never have sold him' like it was in our hands...well done wilson and bournemouth hopefully there is a clause in his contract where we are owed money from promotion and an england appearance? Shame we saw f all of the 3 million
Nobody cares right? Apart from you
Eddie Howe is Bournemouth through and through so hope he stays and can keep the team together. Have been keeping an eye on them this season and they've played the game how it should be played - wonderful attacking football, played with pace and pressing the opposition throughout. Goals have come from all quarters and there is great team spirit.
Maybe us next year eh?

Clearly people care, probably because they are devoid of success at this club and therefore leech off the successes of former players, claiming them as their own.

Don't all bite at once.
I've acknowledged and appreciate both Bournemouth's and Callum's achievements. However starting a thread every time he farts seems like overkill to me. The same goes for Carl Baker.
I'll start the 'Well done David McGoldrick, Jay Tabb and Freddie Sears' thread when Ipswich secure the place in the play-offs at the weekend.
I know this may descend into, 'Bournemouth are going to make £60M +, whilst we got under £3M, Coulibally and all!' (better now that's off my chest!) but a big well done to Callum and Bournemouth.
Will the City players now please step forward and do just a little bit on Sunday to cheer up those that can't change clubs !!
And to think posters on here said what a great deal it was for the club the wilson sale. Mental
It would have been a good deal if Pressley was given the full 3M to buy players, actually thinking about it Pressley would definitely have wasted it on more crap players
Departing striker Callum Wilson delivers a message of thanks to Coventry City and its supporters after completing move to Bournemouth
Coventry kid Callum Wilson hopes Sky Blues fans will understand his decision to move from his boyhood club.
Wilson came up through the Academy ranks with Coventry City and insisted the club would remain firmly in his heart as he headed for pastures new at Bournemouth.
The striker said: “It’s every player’s dream to play for their hometown club and to score so many goals last season went beyond those dreams.
“I was playing for Coventry City with so many of the lads I grew up and I can’t thank Steven Pressley enough for giving me that chance and believing in me from the start of the season.
“When I was asked at the end of last season whether I was going to stay, I really believed that I would be here at the start of next season.
“But as the weeks have passed, there has been more and more interest from clubs in the Championship and it became clear to me that there was a real chance to play in a higher division.
“It gave me a really big decision to make and it’s not one I have taken lightly and I think most supporters will understand just how tough a choice this was for me.
“I have sat down and talked it through with Steve Waggott and Steven Pressley, my family, everyone at Bournemouth and it just felt like the right move at the right time.
“I have to let my head rule my heart as this is my career – but my heart will always be here in Coventry.
“I know Steve and the manager wanted to keep me here but I can only hope that the deal can help them add to the squad. I know that will give them a great chance of going up next season which is something they, the other lads and the supporters all thoroughly deserve.
"The owner also called me to wish me the very best which was something I really appreciated. She also said that she is sorry to see me leave but the way the club have supported my decision, whether it was to stay or to move on, has been first rate and I want to thank them for that.
"Lastly though I want to thank the Sky Blues supporters who got behind me all of last season. They played a massive part in the success I had last season and, as a City supporter myself, it was an honour to share it with them."

One of the main reasons he will forever have my respect.
And if that wasn't bad enough I'm a Northampton fan and I've been telling anyone that listens what a great talent Wilson is and that he's one of most promising players to play at sixfields in the last 20 years. Hope he does well in the prem and who knows, maybe international level one day. He's still young and learning and made the step up to championship level well enough.Clearly people care, probably because they are devoid of success at this club and therefore leech off the successes of former players, claiming them as their own.

Amazing achievement can't wait to see what their finances are like given they made £15m losses just getting out of league one.

I thought they had a rich Russian owner?
They do. He loaned them money to cover the losses.
