Fucking hell lads, think some people need to give a little slack here, Bournemouth have good financial backing and that backing means they can have a good go at the championship next season. Few good results early on and who knows, PO's with a good run? Good luck to them, let's face it if our finances were better we'd be celebrating with them right now and we'd be thinking about pushing for the premiership ourselves, as it'd only be a step away.

No we wouldn't, we would be hoping to finish 4th from bottom, and be bloody happy with it. I have nothing against them, but thinking that they will have a go at the Prem is naïve to say the least. Championship is a whole different ball game since the last time we were there. They should just enjoy the championship rather than thinking that they will be pushing for the Prem.

With Eddie Howe in charge and a few decent signings, I hope to see Bournemouth mid table, and being the tight division it tends to be that means they'll be within touching distance of the top flight and good luck to them.
With our previous board and PDC in charge I wouldnt have been looking at 4th from bottom I have to say. However with the current set up, I dread to think what lies in store if we did go up.

I'd still rather be struggling in the Championship than league 1 Jan.

I imagine a lot if people in Bournemouth travel to Southampton every other Saturday

When Bristol City reached the Championship play off final, was that not their first season after promotion from League 1? And that was without a loaded Russian throwing loads of cash at it.
Very unlikely, but it can be done.
Not sure why I used City as an example actually when Southampton did it last season.

Absolutely, not saying I wouldn't. And my conspiracy theory head hopes that this board will put the for sale signs up as soon as we get promoted tbh. Would love it if we managed to get back to the second tier!

Fucking hell, this is a football forum. If a troll comes, you're supposed to play along for a bit, get him all excited so he links to his mates, before sticking the boot in and making him look a proper tit. Not start noshing him off.

No we wouldn't, we would be hoping to finish 4th from bottom, and be bloody happy with it. Agreed - and let's hope we do make it. Darragh McAnthony (Posh Chairman) was on Sky the other evening discussing Peterborough's "sustainable model" on 7-8,000 crowds which is to go for youth and how he had stuck by Darren Ferguson after losing 14/18 etc. No plans to compete with the parachute clubs or the non parachute clubs with big gates - just a plan. Where are Posh - 4th from bottom with goal difference keeping them afloat at the minute Our present board appears incapable of articulating any plan, let alone showing any financial backing Sorry a bit off topic...f**k the Cherries

What sort of crowds do you remember Wigan getting in the 3rd division? I can't think they ever got over 5-6,000.
They don't get many more than that in the premier.
