Yup and massive win for Bournemouth at the weekend. They still have got to play the following...their home games will be huge for them. Sheff Utd (A) Burnley (A) Chelsea (H) Liverpool (A) Palace (H) Wolves (A) Newcastle (H) Man Utd (A) Spurs (H) Leicester (H) City (A) Saints (H) Everton (A)

Got caught out going to spurs (Wembley) last year with this straight form work. Its a joke, and you only find out just as you're about to go into the stadium. Only take a bag if you absolutely have to.

Can't see it. Don't think he is good enough to play for Spurs regularly anyway, but also no time for us to get a replacement in, especially with Armstrong currently injured. We shall see...

Whats going on with the top tier? Is that home fans confirmed, or is that the rest of our allocation not yet on sale, i.e. blocks. 515-519?

Look like an absolute nightmare as currently is? 4 and a quarter hours each way and £60 return from Basingstoke, and 5 hours each way from Southampton, best part of £90 return. Crazy.

Maehle apparently which might explain Walker Peters going through with us. Maybe he rejected us to go there.

Don't think this is the point to be honest. We'll be getting a fee for a player who is 28 and out of contract in the summer, for more than what we spent on him. And lets be honest, he's not great and one of our highest earners. If we can get through the rest of this season with KWP, Bertrand, Vokins and Valery as full backs, with the possibility of Danso/JWP if desparate, I don't think it would be terrible business, and then sets us up to either bring in KWP if he does well, or go hunting for an improvement in the summer. We shall see....I see why they're considering it though.

I'll be going, whats another 15 quid. Is a joke though.

If we could get £10m for him, I think I'd take it. €8m seems a bit of an insult.

Atleast it seems to be a "try before you buy" situation. We have 5/6 months to see if he'd be a good enough replacement for Cedric, if he isn't I'm sure he'll be sent back and we'll look at alternatives. Worth a punt, if just for a bit of cover. You'd expect we have an option to buy if we want him.

Agreed - very irritating, and this was why I initially missed out on Palace.

Were heavily linked in the summer IIRC. Good player.

I'd love him to sign a new contract, but clearly at the moment, he's assessing his options.

Thought he was excellent last night, did exactly what we needed him to do

Without being quite as blunt, I think thats a fair shout. I think Yoshida can easily come in and do a good job, but he normally starts slow when he comes into the side. Big performance needed all over the pitch to get a result. Is going to be a niggly game, but hopefully we can get them on the break.

There are a couple that are dedicated away pubs, "Prince George" and "The Railway Telegraph". I'm actually meeting a mate in Balham, as it's easy enough to nip over from there on the overground. COYS

There is no chance that Bournemouth are run sustainably, they've spent a sh1t tonne of money vs their revenue over the last few years. It's no surprise we're are always at the bottom of the expenditure tables. I'm not saying that we should go and splash the cash and go ridiculous, but we're the only club who has to sell to buy, whether thats right or not, is another question, but it's no surprise we're fighting for premier league status every year.

I think we probably have the worst owner in the Premier League at the moment.

I think Yoshida is a better player, but when he comes into the side, he normally needs a few games to get up and running, in expecting to see Vestergaard in there personally.

Will be a shame when he leaves, but he's not been able to get in this team, which has been atrocious at the back at times. Behind everyone, not worth renewing, especially as I assume we'll be bringing in another CB in the summer... Great servant though.

He posted on his Instagram last week he was back training, so perhaps he’s got to build up his fitness again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yup - very true. If Valery is back in the squad again, and Cedric has improved I'm not as worried about the RB position, but if Bertrand got injured we'd be struggling. If we hadn't had the upturn in results recently, we'd definitely be looking to bring some in, but maybe they might try and wait it out until the summer. Feels like we might as well just send Danso back to his club, all seems a bit pointless to me, unless we're locked into buying him and therefore will work on him in the centre back position once we're safe or over the summer...

All very quiet....

Absolutely pathetic from the club. Some terrible decisions regarding ticketing happening at the moment

Got one, no idea why 140 tickets have just gone on sale, but they have, probably reserved for kids club or club staff or something. Thanks Mattio! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
