Not in the least bit surprising, football is a traditionally working class sport, so is most heavily embedded in working class areas. It's only in the past 20 years or so the poshies have discovered football, since that nice Mr Murdoch invented it in 1992.
Goes some way to explaining why most of the teams in our division next year are northern... |

Little talk of them being under transfer embargo on the trusted site of twitter. Would be ironic but oh so funny.

They will also get around £5m from the Llalana sale. Who they get and for how much will give an insight into whether or not the owner is cashing in or going for it. |

AFC Bournemouth currently owe two significant loans, one of £7.5million which is owed by October 2014 to Wintel Petrochemicals who are controlled by the Cherries Russian owner Maxim Demin.
http://www.bournemouth.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=357690Might have something to do with it. |

The fairytale continues. New ownership and Holywood A lister involvement as well. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63957509The bucket collection seems like a long time ago now. |

Fair play to them. I do struggle to understand how a club that play in such a small stadium and therefore have a limited income have managed to maintain both Premier league and Championship football over the last 10 years or so. Well I don't really. Money, money money money of course. |

Indeed, the governance is very poor. Bigger clubs than Bournemouth have also broken rules (Man City and PSG spring to mind) which unfortunately haven't really hindered them in any way. It's absolutely shit that such flimsy rules and punishments are in place and until these are resolved nowt will change. Monetary punishment these days are not enough, especially for clubs earning tens/hundreds of millions from being in the top division. |
