Roy's View From... View From Bournemouth

[Lane Ender]

Absolutely, they are lucky to play us before all our new players have settled in. When do we play them at Home! Bring it on.

They’ll get the traditional warm welcome

Bournemouth as a resort isn’t brilliant slight upgrade on Skeggy.

It might not be, but the areas around it e.g. Sandbanks; are home to a lot of seriously wealthy people. I'm afraid Skeggy is not

Billy came on and Betfair offered 20/1 against him being next scorer - daft bastards, but I suppose they fell for all the media crap we've all had a good laugh at.

Bournemouth should count their blessings for that point - we set up and went out there to be cautious, and understandably so given all the hype about the Prem. Villa took a different approach at Spurs and ran out of steam and belief, but still went mighty close to getting a point. Jack Grealish looked as though he wanted to check his pocket watch before deciding what to do with the ball - you'd have thought he'd learnt from the 1st minute when his defensive colleague tried to do the same.

That Man City scoreline scares the shit out of you, until you look closely at the West Ham comedy-club they refer to as their defence. As for playing like a team, they looked like they'd never been introduced before the game.
OK - there's a load of very special strikers and top-notch midfield players in the Prem, but there's a significant number of pretty average defenders too, and too many of them afraid to put a boot in once the ball is played into the area. Cue Billy.......

Thank you Roy.

They (Bournemouth) all go on about 'we had a bad game.'

But you are as good as your are allowed to play, and if we make you look crap, then we obviously succeeded.

Sheffield United.............playing teams playing shit since 2016.

And getting promoted twice..............funny old game. We must be so lucky.

The thing I find unbelievable is that Bournemouth were literally a nothing club just 5 years ago. Eddie Howe deserves unimaginable credit for what he’s done for that club, very much like our own Chris Wilder.

I’d like to think that, should we stay up for a few years, we’d stay relatively grounded in our respect for the newly promoted teams and just how difficult it is to get out of the Championship.

We seemed to grow in confidence in the second half and had that game come a couple of months down the line we may have nicked all three points. Today’s game confirms to me that we are more than capable of establishing ourselves in this division.

He does deserve credit
But I still remember him leaving for Burnley at the drop of a hat and not giving a toss about Bournemouth

“They deserved that point. We looked slow throughout the game. Big up to Ramsdale who did a fine job, we could have been a goal down in 30 seconds. Nothing much all game from King and Wilson. Have we suddenly become a long ball team? Pretty disappointed to be honest. ““We struggle against teams who

I've seen that replay a thousand times and it doesn't bounce off anyones arm
Also notice that if sharp doesn't score Robinson is right behind him
In fact there are blades everywhere it's like that ten up front option on FIFA

And was it? I struggled to find a good quality close up, slowed down.

It bounced off Egan's chest. I thought it was handball in the heat of the moment but it clearly wasn't.

How can you hate Sheffield if you haven't been there. Having only been to Hillsborough and some boozer in Grenoside

To be honest, if they were the only places I'd been I'd really fucking hate it.

At the time BT said it had gone to VAR, as I understand all goals do.

Yep, every goal is automatically checked.

Can't believe I'm doing this in response to Some Guy On Twitter, but the ball pretty clearly hit Egan smack in the bird's nest.



It then rather amusingly ricochets directly into Ake's face:



The bigger mystery is why that guy has drawn "OL" on his image. Is he missing the initial "L"?
