A lot of our fans also thought the same when he was first appointed to be fair, not the sensible ones but also doubted who said things like “a bit underwhelmed but I’ll back him now he’s here”.
i always rated him and actually have a £50 bet with a Man Utd fan made a day or two after his appointment, he bet me that Eddie Howe will get us relegated because “that’s what he does”. I mean forget the fact he dragged Bournemouth up through the leagues and kept bournemouth up for quite a few seasons.
