Supporters will be supporters...
Frustrating thing is BHA were there for the taking. As my dad said, ‘Brighton didn’t win it, Bournemouth lost it.’

That doesn't half sound like a compliment. :shrug:

I guess that makes them No Infrastructure FC?

Still trying to find a rival I guess

As Stat said, that is definitely a back handed compliment. You are correct regarding their infrastructure, exactly what have they got? Win on marginal points to Palace.

I think that's brilliant. Must really irritate other clubs of a similar ilk seeing that we're slowly but surely building and building - all from a rock solid base....

Like watching an oak tree grow, knowing it's going to be almost impossible to blow over when it gets bigger.

Thing is, important I think for those that look to survive every season, and God forbid, if we were to go down we can consolidate. Clubs like Bournemouth and Palace will crash and burn on their income to expenditure if they found themselves in the Championship.

I wish we’d spent £19,000,000 on a striker with 1 Premier League goal rather than spending our money on a training ground and a new stadium. :(

I don’t hate Bournemouth but I’m trying to find the words to explain how I feel. Their supporters are the kind of people who would complain about you sitting quietly in a first class seat on an extremely busy train.

It makes them No Infrastructure Funded by TV and Dodgy Russian Money Not Really Plucky At All Tin Pot FC.

Bit of a mouthful that, though.

We are a fantastically well run club, have a chairman who is one of us and is ambitious without recklessness. Invested so much to give us the everything we need to compete from the bottom up. We have a great manager who is respected by everyone who meets him and is gracious in victory and defeat. We are (for now) holding our own in the top flight of English football. We have a team who seem happy and together. We have fans that the majority are realistic and are enjoying this period of our history. We beat our biggest rivals 3-1 this season with only 10 men and we have just secured our place in the 4th round of the FA cup.

I would be bloody jealous if I supported anyone other then us as well.

Apart from that, what did the Romans give us?

And a global fanbase stretching as far as Australasia.

I can see that nickname, yeah. We're definitely all very proud of everything we're building around the club in a long-term plan to be here for ages. Seems other teams see that too, and well, it wouldn't be football if it wasn't used as a stick to beat us with :)

They can beat us with Infrastructure FC forever... I'll be very happy with that.
