Thread: Should we use The Cherries as a role model?

  1. #1

    Should we use The Cherries as a role model?

    2008-2009 they started their league 2 campaign on -17 under a transfer embargo so tight, they couldn't even sign a player who wanted to play for them for nothing.

    Now less than 6 years later they are a game away from being in playoff positions for the premier league.

    Not being funny but even under the scrupulous eye of the Football League, we are in a far far better situation than they ever were in.

    Or is it, dare I say, they got lucky with an exceptional manager?

    That was really ironic. He'd never been home so early to Sandbanks and Sandra from an away competitive game for so long. Hope they enjoyed their evening QPR fans mostly are sick to death of him, hoping he bogs off whatever happens to them in the play offs

    They win tonight against Reading and it's 2 points, very winnable game away to Yeovil at weekend with Reading facing Leicester on the Monday night.


    Bournemouth have won something like 8 of their last nine or ten games. Good momentum going into playoffs

    Weirder things have happened
