George Bailey

Of the three players 'linked' with moving in Jan he is the one I would be least gutted over. We cannot let Janmaat go or Ayoze imo, but could cope with Sissoko leaving (providing we use the money wisely). Such an infuriating player, neither nowt nor summit...but effective.

One bad spell is rather different to one good spell

Howe to Swansea would be a good fit if Monk is peddled imo. They seem to have a plan or style that they have been cultivating over several managers now and he would seem a logical candidate. Not sure how 'loyal' he would feel to Bournemouth though.

I was on a different forum and they seemed vaguely supportive, but were saying that he needed some support on the coaching side. Think the directors wanted him to have a more experienced man around too, but he said no. Can see why he wouldn't want someone lurking in the wings tbh. Christ he got them to 8th...Swansea! Not convinced he's the second coming of Shankly but surely the lad has earned a bit of leeway for one bad spell? Then again it's hundreds of millions at stake...ridiculous money putting ridiculous pressure and leading to ridiculous expectations. Modern footy ugh.

Wow. Surprised by that...genuinely.

They took ages to appoint him as well iirc? Some sort of committee with ex players, think Danny Murphy was involved?

Swansea going through very dodgy patch. Dropping points I would have thought they would have taken. wonder if Monk really is under pressure..

Think they can hope for 3 points maximum from that lot of fixtures...fingers crossed.

Played very well, and needed to cover Dummetts arse on a few occasions. Still far from good enough but fair play today.

Until today I'd say he's had zero luck IMO exactly, what a ridiculous comment. So he didn't get lucky today? that was what I meant.

Uninspiring and mediocre. We will stumble about with him and make little or no progression as a squad or team imo. Money wasted. Seems to have some luck though.

That back pass...jesus wept.

Totally agree with this. I can't believe he wasn't subbed. Ditto. weak, weak , weak. Sell him in January if we can. We need a major overhaul in midfield.

Cracking finish. Weak display for me overall though and yet again with the 'cheating' gamesmanship. Poor and he is so much better than that.

man of the match... football...got to be the craziest sport fair play to the lump of lard.

Sell this sack of shit to anyone daft enough to want him asap. utterly abject and fucking brainless...

this is correct Absolutely. Lad did well today when he came on.

Amen brother. Redknapp twitchty faced cunt almost greetin' Love it...fucking love it. Fuck you Howe.

Utterly anonymous and bobbins today...

divvent get me started on the Great British bake off either....

Genuinely beginning to fucking hate Bournemouth like. This is fucking ridiculous. Even the section on us was skewed to how 'plucky little Bournemouth' will target Blobby and his injury. Hope we fucking batter this shower of shit and piss down 'everyone loves Eddie' Howes fucking throat. come on lads get at these twats and leave twitchy face apoplectic....

Nice and balanced coverage so far from BT. Redknapp, Elphick and Ferdinand...proper balance. can't be accused of a Bournemouth love in here...

was Luke de Jongesque
