DRAGONZ_RULE Posted 21 March, 2017 Share Posted 21 March, 2017 To be fair to Long , since the new year his record in front of goal isn't too bad. He must play rather than JRod , who hasn't done a thing since the game at their place so doesn't deserve a start. That's unfair on JRod ... he looked to be coming into some form and was working hard, scored against Leicester, got injured against Liverpool and then Gabbiadini was signed. I think the Twitter cat fight between his family and some others suggested that Gabbiadini's signing prompted JRod to try and look for another opportunity in the EPL but seemingly it was denied by the club, and it's been pretty clear since then that he's been cutting a frustrated individual ... and has barely had any minutes since that time. That said, I think it's almost certain that Long will start ahead of JRod in this game anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwsaint Posted 22 March, 2017 Share Posted 22 March, 2017 Last time AFCB finished above Saints? Not since the fifties, when we were in the old Div 3 and they finished above us a couple of times. When I started going in the seventies and scores were announced, we used to cheer if Pompey were losing and generally liked to see Bournemouth winning. They are like your kid brother. Like to beat them to show who is boss, but otherwise want to see them doing well. The lot at the wrong end of the M27 are like the kid in the playground that you really don't like. So for me the real south coast derby is with the blue few, although goodness knows when we will next play them. Bournemouth is a bit more than a visit from Stoke or West Brom, so is a kind of derby, but without any of the nastiness of Pompey games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint in NZ Posted 25 March, 2017 Share Posted 25 March, 2017 Just to put my opinion in from the other side of your world. When I lived in Christchurch, Hampshire in the 50s and 60s, this was the derby. So, in fairness, seeing that that "other" team doesn't even feature anywhere near the top flight anymore, why not call this "the" derby? Gives a bit of an edge to the game. Unless of course the main intention is to hate the rivals then I guess it will be harder for a lot of supporters to do that where the Cherries are concerned!

Professor Posted 25 March, 2017 Share Posted 25 March, 2017 It's still hard to see the Cherries as a rival although I probably would start to worry if they finished above us in the table. I'm pleased to see them in the Prem, having never thought it could be possible. I wish them well and hope to see them mid-table in May but just assume they can't possibly win against us. That would be turning the World upside down and just will not happen. I'd like at least a 2-goasl advantage just to keep them in their place.

Bad Wolf Posted 26 March, 2017 Share Posted 26 March, 2017 I'm really looking forward to this. It's not just another game at all.

Sour Mash Posted 27 March, 2017 Share Posted 27 March, 2017 This is going to be a tougher game than it should be. Our full strength team, we win comfortably. But we're likely to concede and could well struggle to score without Austin or Gabbiadini. Still a fair few seats available for this one.

Mad that its been two months since our last home game in the middle of the season. Had a look at seats, £50 for restricted view, I know it is considered by some (at least in the media team) as a derby but seems rather pricey! Worth noting Bournemouth have won their last two, hopefully the international break will negate any momentum they might be carrying. As you said hard to see goals but then I would argue Long or Jay are just as capable as King as getting goals - again only real difference is a patch of form.

John Boy Saint Posted 29 March, 2017 Share Posted 29 March, 2017 Where the heck is restricted view in St Marys? My daughter knows if she can come to games at the 11th hour, and had mentioned this comment about tickets with "restricted view" had started popping up. From what she could work out was the seats were low down and the men running the steady cam could be in your line of sight! Seems a bit PC if true especially as Crystal Palace have restricted view seats for the poor sods in the 1st block of the away section and QPR couldn't give a stuff for away fans on the top deck of the stand stuffed up in the corner all for top prices.

positivepete Posted 29 March, 2017 Share Posted 29 March, 2017 ? There are no restricted virw seats in St Marys wtf are you on?? There are a few restricted view seats. At the back of the Kingsland where the extras cameras have been for the past couple of years there are a number of seats that are pretty worthless buying. There are also some seats where the railings by the exits restrict the view, though this is minor to the ones blocked by the cameras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
