Bournemouth (H) Pre match thread (05.10.24, 3pm)

[Harry96]

Must win but we won’t. And they’re a decent side these days 

[Vazman]

I can see this ending up like the Palace match, rinse repeat same old, zero appetite to play for a win. 

[Pliskin]

We will concede after about ten minutes, and will have to scramble back to get a 1-1 draw at best. Then the WhAt Do YoU ExPeCt, We ArE a Yo Yo ChAmPiOnShIp ClUb, brigade will be out in full force to defend this absolutely pickle we have as a manager. Another afternoon of painful football.

. You just starting supporting us? You think this board are going to give him the boot anytime soon. Wishful thinking but these clowns love inaction above all else

Apologies, wishful thinking clouded my vision of what will actually happen.

 

Cooper will stay until JUST before we are mathematically relegated and we sign Sam Allardyce or Neil Warnock on a similar deal that Dean Smith had to get us out the dog muck. Is that more realistic?

We played these away from home in the cup last season, lined up with the likes of Albrighton, Praet, Coady, Yunus, Wanya, Stolarcyk and Hamza playing and won, playing front foot attacking football whenever we could.

 

There is no excuse for cowardly, handbrake football at home in a game like this. This should be approached positively, setting our stall out to win from minute 1. No "keeping in the game" or "keeping things tight". No passive timewasting bullshit where we take no interest in doing anything with the ball for 60 minutes. I want a positive lineup, and to see us going for it properly like a team that intends to win a game of football. If Cooper wants to keep his job, the opportunity is right there. These are his 4 winnable fixtures ahead of him now, we need 5 wins and a draw more before Christmas to have a shout at staying up. There's no time to piss about hoping to win later on. Get a win on the boards now, or get out of the club and stop wasting everybody's time.

If Cooper is in charge for this game I will really despair , he doesn’t deserve it quite frankly. But our board are so incompetent and they are the main reason we are in this position.

tbf i can imagine not many of us are looking forward to any of our games with Cooper in charge, if we had someone different in charge im sure that would be different in every respect

Which manager do you realistically think we can afford to get to replace Cooper? I think most of you are deluded.

Would you keep him if we lose this?

There's been numerous suggestions over the last few weeks, you really ought to just not post tbqh

Actually, stick with your original post. This one is too depressingly realistic 

[Filbert Fireworks]

We'll beat Bournemouth and Cooper will be the messiah on here.

If and it's a very big IF we win it just buys Cooper a bit more time

you say this yet we spent £5mil on Ayew, just sort of think about the whole, and take the horse blinkers off

Must win no excuses!

My boys mascot for this one. Hoping he can bring us some luck. We need to get our first win soon.

He must have done something bad to deserve this punishment. 

[Grebfromgrebland]

We've somehow got ourselves into a situation where we feel like we need to play ndidi Skipp winks in the midfield.

TBF it's his team doing it, not something I chose. But I am happy he's doing it, he's been told if he gets Soumare hes to leave, if I see him walking out with him I'm disowning him

[Blueman1967]

Now become the most important game, this season

[broadstone fox]

Seen bournemouth  twice this season. There a strong side that press high up and attack with pace. Semenyo on the right is beast of a player. There no.9 hasnt scored yet this season

Can see the first half being cagey and then end to end stuff because Cooper has to go for it.
