    If we contrive to get Lingard as well or another forward I'd say its been a very successful window. Shame we couldn't get Carlos or Botman but Bruno has numbed that pain tenfold.

    Been posted before but still
  3. Feels like a weird stick to hit him with though. The main 2 signings of out of those 50 that people use to argue his signings were shite are Solanke and Ibe. Solanke, while shit in the Prem, is Bournemouth's top scorer atm. Ibe, admittedly, was shit. But no manager in world football gets their transfers 100% right, especially when working with constraints of being a very small club like Bournemouth. And given we've got a player like Bruno, tried very hard for Carlos, Botman, feels like a bizarre thing to bring up. The British players we have been linked with will improve us as well.
  4. Given the size of a club like Bournemouth their transfers were probably limited in scope tbf. Can go on about being 'obsessed' with British buys but players like Bruno and attempts for Carlos, Botman and Bakker/Digne would suggest that given our resources and size he has scope to go for players that were unachievable for Bournemouth.
  5. No idea why. We need new GK(s) medium term but CB and/or another forward are more important iyam.
  6. People are forgetting that Lewis exists. He was coming into his own before his injury.
  7. Was that the "daddy's dick" thing? Cringe as fuck but I just innocently thought it was just two horny teenagers rather than anything weird. May well have been after all this stuff that's come out today.

    Jesse Lingard

    Does it mean it's off? They are yet to suspend him and even still they could play probably still play Rashford, Ronaldo, Sancho as a front 3. Probably grasping at straws here mind.
  9. I think this is a top signing in every single department. Been desperate for a quality midfielder since Cabaye, vastly improves us, got age on his side, would get into a Man Utd, Spurs or Arsenal side and improve those. Plus from a marketing side as well. He's one good looking bastard.
  10. Can I laugh at that? Christ.
  11. The depressing thing is that she was recording it. She could see it was coming so secretly recorded it for proof which suggests that it's been going on for a long time. Poor lass, man. Fucking hell.
  12. Manchester United need to suspend him, surely. Hard to try and suggest that people need to hear Greenwood's side after those images like. Beyond sickening stuff.
  13. It started away at Burnley in November 2018 where we won 2-1. But its been at literally every game since. You find a clip of our fans on YouTube after that point and guarantee they'll be singing it. Just like a bit of variation. O'Brien, aye. Colo? In the pub away at Leicester last month his song was sung along with Lovenkrands and "do the Ameobi and you turn around" but never did it get sung in the actual ground.
  14. If there was a Chris Wood song it didn't come through on my stream and I haven't seen it on social media anywhere. Perhaps the variety of fans affects that but I still think it's naff. Probably an unpopular opinion but I personally think 'who's that team called united' is shite. Admittedly, probably because it's all we seem to ever sing and I've just gotten bored of it. We sing it during and at the end of every single game. Alongside the following Blaydon Races (at absolute light speed) A player's name repeated Eddie Howe's B&W army Toon Toon B&W army Newcastle (repeated) I understand that some of those are staples but can we think of nowt better? Why doesn't Saint-Maximin have a song yet? Will Bruno get a song which isn't just 'Bruno' repeated over and over? Even Callum Wilson's chant is just Shearer's chant that we've always sung. One thing I admire (probably the only thing) about Man Utd's supporters is they still sing songs for old players like Cantona, Best, Rooney, Ronaldo before he came back this season et cetera. Why can't we? Sing the Terry Hibbitt on the wing song, we've got Mirandinha, chants about Ginola, Robert et al if we had any. Just makes it a tad more interesting. The variety of fans though certainly affects the prevalence of the shit songs I mentioned like 'don't take me home' and that. Those songs are the fucking pits.
  15. I think it will. You see at games with higher loyalty point requirements that the support is better and there's no news hardly of bother. This may come with a slight negative though, as this may breed a quasi elitist group amongst fans with high amounts of loyalty points. I think the point system is fair fwiw, but I've already seen those with high numbers of points on social media take the piss out of those who don't which is totally uncalled for. I aim to get my ST back for next season and I accept I'll have to start again in terms of points but it's going to be very difficult to. It's why I want to see the club award loyalty points for any home FA or League Cup ticket that's bought, but that's another topic altogether. Old post of mine in this very thread That still is the case for us now but it is with many clubs, especially the likes of Leeds, Man Utd, the mackems and Villa amongst others. Our away support is brilliant in terms of numbers and noise made but it seeps into things like the songbook. I personally think our songbook is really, really shit. It's the same 4 or 5 chants repeated all the time along with a particular player having his name repeated to no tune at all then you'll get the mongs we're on about chanting 'don't take me home', 'your support is fucking shit', 'is this a library', 'sunderland get battered' whilst they're winning and we're losing to name a few. Ugh.
