Are you talking about the weird subs?

No been trying to get the video of it but Sky showed a close up of him looking into space, thinking, about 8 mins from end of the 90, he then looks down and lets out a massive sigh.

As much as to say why dont they $$ listen or a kind of FFS silent moment.

 

[Snowflake]

I can’t see anything other than a comprehensive Bournemouth victory.

Out fought
Out thought
Out played

Penny to finally drop amongst even the most positive fans that we are not in a promotion push.

penny to drop with Slav that he can’t rely on half the sqaud.

I think it a little disrespectful to Slav to suggest that he has not yet worked out the strengths and weaknesses of this squad.
His recruitment indicates that he knows the weaknesses but will need at least two more windows to put it right.
In the meantime Baldock’s interview suggests that he is working not only on the team shape but on individuals to improve what he has.

 

[Snowflake]

Ah, levelling variables. I have the faint whiff of a fluke win or it could be the heady aroma of delusion - I never had much of a sense of smell.

How about the faint whiff of abandonment for safety reasons ?!

 

[AnstonBlade1]

Bournemouth struggled to score against the worst defence in the division and yet if we manage to keep them to 3-0 it will be a good result? Some of our fans need to get themselves a backbone

100% nailed on defeat.

 

[BadgersBigToe]

Just say no!

5-0

Brewster x ️️️️️

Just say no

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Oh ye of little faith !!!
Last game was a leg up for a fan in trouble, this one is to make up for it.

UP THE BLADES........

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

3-0 Bournemouth, just think they’ll have too much for our defence but we’ll play better than at boro.

 

[LudlamBlade]

5-0

Brewster x ️️️️️

Well, I guess it must be 5 o clock somewhere

 

[Wards]

Some of you are showing a disturbing lack of faith in our record signing

 

[LJBlade]

100% nailed on defeat.

Maybe so, that’s football, it wouldn’t be a ‘good result’ though would it.

 

[Kev Gee]

Listen to some of you.

Absolute bottle jobs.

 

[1973Blade]

There's a gale blowing here in Bournemouth, please don't be called off!

There's a gale blowing here in Bournemouth, please don't be called off!

It has been awful down here since Thursday & is set to continue for a while. The current heavy rain & gales are set in at least up to 10pm tonight unfortunately.

[Wright1889]

Get Jimmy fucked off

 

[bakeblade]

Still no Berge.

Poor against Boro and with some tired legs so same team???

 

[FatPaul]

As much as I love Sharp, can he really play this many games on the bounce these days?

 

[Nedski]

Fleck starts

 

[AnstonBlade1]

Sharp looked nackered against boro, he really mustn’t rate any of the other strikers.

 

[originaltrueblade]

At 4pm the fairly heavy rain turns into torrential heavy rain Bournemouth somewhere under this radar image

 

[broomhillblade]

The bench is top heavy with strikers. Basham is the only recognised defender.

 

[Bell4]

I am really really surprised Slav has named an unchanged team - was sure he would have changed the midfield two and brought in Ollie Mac or Brewster - but what do i know .

 

[lazyfecklessblade]

Norwood and fleck against the best pressing outfit in the league, did we learn nowt on Tuesday

 

[FinBlade]

Norwood and Fleck in starting XI while Hourihane on bench and Guedioura missing?
We are again going to make those passing triangles on wings and hope we get some created from those?

What does a player have to do in training or what ever to get a change in our midfield?

 

[robbiez666]

Same midfield again and no Guédioura. Is he injured? Is Slater still injured as well? Thought we might play a little more defensive against Bournemouth!

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Baffling line up after Tuesday

Why bother signing hourihane ?

Why no mcburnie ?

We’ll lose today and sharp will be anonymous up front on his own again

At this point I've no option but to assume Brewster and Oli are just simply doing fuck all in training. There must a reason for the hesitation to stick them in the starting 11.
