Pilko

I'd give him a year's extension like. He's the only person at the club competent at defending other than perhaps Fernandez. I'd sooner ship out the dickheads gifting the opposition goals week after week than him, although long term he's clearly nowhere near good enough and unreliable from an injury standpoint.

Albert Luque as DOF

Feels quiet today and given the 2-3 day ramp period from strong links to player signed, that's a bit of a concern for the weekend. We need to see some heavy links/fees agreed etc by tomorrow night really.

Wasn't he assistant to Jason Tindall when he was Bournemouth boss?

Think we'll be in the game for most of this but ultimately crumble late. 3-1.

You, along with everyone else, were not saying this when Bruce was in post. It's revisionist twaddle designed to absolve Howe of any responsibility and I don't know why he's getting a completely free ride from so many. He's pissed away points along with the players.

More embarrassing to blindly tie your colours to HMS Bournemouth and Bust and salute him as we go down without a whimper.

They shouldn't be beyond criticism. I'm delighted they're here but it's been far from a smooth ride so far you have to admit.

I'd have him back here in a heartbeat, would be such an upgrade.

Get him back in.

They will be aye, just irritating.

Firpo and Forshaw both injured immediately for fucks sake man.

Dawson, Firpo, Toney 45/1 Jones & Pinnock 60/1 Forshaw & Fornals 20/1 Jota and Bowen SOT boost Sky 8/1 Rice, Fornals, Klich, Harrison 1+ SOT 30/1

He's an absolute bag of nothing this bloke. A shorter and pacier Jeff Hendrick.

10. We've had so many chances to get out of it and blown them all, can't see that changing any time soon. Relegation may not be the worst thing as this squad needs torn to pieces ASAP.

Because we all sat here and said "The squad is terrible but Bruce is the fucking pits, this team would be doing better under someone even halfway competent". And Howe has come in, and made absolutely no impact whatsoever other than stumbling upon Joelinton being a canny CM (which he only discovered by starting Clark, another Howe mistake). The narrative seems to have shifted from "squad shit, Bruce making it worse" to "squad so shit that nobody in the world could fix it" just so people can defend Eddie Howe. He's hoodwinked so many on this forum and it's plain as day he's not up to the job.

As if it took Staveley a fucking month to conclude her "robust search" and land us with the inspid wet blanket that she did Good thing PIF have bottomless pockets cos we've only just started to spunk cash about and there'll be many hundreds of millions more wasted before they remove the listless primary school teacher we've got in the dugout after we inevitably stall in next year's promotion race. I'm glad we've got our club back but by Christ we need someone with half a clue to come in and run it properly - both at board level and dugout level.

Looked just as isolated and uninvolved as Wilson did playing in this system under this manager.

Wet blanket managing a team with no arsehole, is it any wonder we shit the bed so often? 1 shot on target against a team who have lost 6 on the bounce, and even that came from Watford's fullback tripping over his own feet. He's shit. I've been telling you all for weeks. He's made absolutely no impact on this club, the job is way too big for him.

I absolutely hate him. Not a captain, not a footballer, just a cowardly talentless bag of shit.

I followed albeit at 17/1. Halfway there

Agree. Have done the below: Dennis & Wood to score NUFC win 4+ corners each 1+ card each 33/1

The reverse fixture when Sir Jared Gillett was ref I seem to remember a lot of us made a packet on card multiples... Tierney ref today, prices aren't amazing but will be dabbling for sure on our game.

Hughes card and Gallagher assist 31/1

Went Schlupp and Trossard 2+ at 23/1 in the end.
