Local derby.

With four different teams playing, no doubt.

Little point coming home in between.

I guess if we all have to stay and have a whole weekend away we will!.......just for the loyalty points if nothing else!

All around BN44 lights are coming on and kettles being filled by nervous souls.

Happened the other way round in BN42 - passed out and just now found out we've Bournemouth away - that's not a bad draw at the end of the day.

22 changes combined (guaranteed)

Awful, awful draw on all counts.
Small ground, small ticket allocation, unlikely to progress. The same people who snapped up tkts for the league game will do likewise again ( + 280 pts ) leaving a lot of people unable to go again, particularly as it won't be televised.

There will be a larger allocation as 15% for the cups.

Considering its a crap cup, we have only just been there and the extra seats, I reckon this will become available to non season ticket holders.

This won't have any way near the same demand as the league game

As if anyone who wants a ticket for this won't get one. 15% allocation for cup games so 1,800 tickets to watch two reserve teams. We won't take more than 700.

The thread has been one of the funniest I've read in a long while.

I'm going to league game but certainly won't be going to cup game to watch Hughon make 11 changes and 90% change of elimination in a cup the club don't want to progress in due to premier league survival being the priority
After playing each other on the Friday Bournemouth will be doing the same, 2 hour trip on a Tuesday night to watch Bournemouth reserves play Brighton reserves...no thanks
We won't even sell it out

Notters · Aug 24, 2017

Ffs going to be in Bournemouth twice that week... and today. But won't be able to go to either game.

A couple of hours since the Chinese EFL Cup draw.
Now I fancy another one.

With the club only competing in one of the thee competitions this year and that for fourth from bottom of the league I can't help thinking it's a waste of a football season. Whoops I forgot about the cash

Assume plucky little Bournemouth will be calling up Hoops for both games.

I wouldn't bet on it, who would have thought we would get 11,000 at home against Barnet.

Ah but did we?
We may have sold 11,000 tkts but I would bet a fair number of those were purchased purely for the points and resulted in no shows.

Andy Naylor said 8888, but the difference would be 1901s.

I know of at least 3 attending the League game who won't be taking up the same offer for the Caribou Cup Classic.
