    That’s a decent one to come to for that ending!

    Doubly so as it was the youngest sons first home game since becoming an Owl. He's tried a couple of clubs (down south) but Saints away last season changed him to Wednesday. 

    He's still buzzing today😁😁😁😁😁 (So am I actually 😁😁😁😁👍)

    Our season starts on the 12th August against Hull. 

    The Southampton game is a free pass. Against a team worth (on paper) around £100m we could field the Wembley side and if we don't get gubbed by more than 2 then I'd take that as job done. We could also produce a Newcastle-esque performance and catch them cold.

    Not bothered about the League Cup so the kids that are playing pre-season can run out in that one. 

    Hull are potentially in the same boat we are, finances and transfer wise, and I'd be looking for parity in that game. 

    Down here the locals are sh@ting themselves. The team was poor last year, half want to leave and they are worried we are running with form and will gub them.

    Bit of needle in that post….. 

    Don’t blame you though. 🤣

    There is really. It just pisses me off that a tin pot outfit like Bournemouth are in the top flight and we are getting a point against Oxford. Even worse is working with their fans who a few years ago would rather admitted to going dogging at the weekend than say they were at the game. Now there are kids out there who have heard of Bournemouth and not of Wednesday 'cos we've been shit for so long.

     

    Sorry rant over.

    First time I’ve ever heard them referred to as “AFCB” unless that’s what pook calls them

     

    Oh they love their AFC bit. Pre season they printed Premier League tables with them top. Alphabetical order🙄

    "AFC Bournemouth, we're top of the table" 

    This was a pre season chant. They lost 1-0 to Bristol City. I'm not sure they saw the irony 🤣🤣

    You wouldn't be if you'd have been stood near to their infantile fans at the end, pal.  Absolute wankers of the 'aggressive pointing' sub-species. I'm sat in the window coach seat, I'm 69 and probably look it, and one of their juvenile planks has just repeatedly offered me out in the street.  Until a copper made alternative suggestions to him.  🙄

    Yeah, i agree, though they also threw coins. One landed at my feet right in front of a steward. He saw it but nothing was done.

  6. When I moved away from Yorkshire I ended up in Bournemouth for a while in the late 90's. Harry had moved to South Today at that point and it was great to hear a proper accent on the telly.

    His best moment was when they read out the cricket results one evening and Yorkshire had hammered Hampshire. Everyone on the show was saying it was a shame and Harry just sat their with a huge grin 😁. He then just muttered, "As it should be". Good old boy

    RIP
