Any questions guys, just pop them in a bottle and send them out on the tide.
Great stuff, cheers!

An excellent fixture in which to really see how good our squad is, and hopefully we can win this one with goals from Ideye and without it going to penalties as against Oxford.

Welcome Aries22. This takes me back to the BBC days. Assume it is you and not an imposter? It's great to have you sign up, hope you can influence others to follow. Not just Albion though, we need other clubs to join up

Bournemouth just put 8 past Blues. Suddenly this feels like one mighty banana-skin!

They have something called pace up front Vic
We have pace but never use the players.
Pace can make a difference, wish someone would tell AI

Tbf the only pace we had on the bench today was Gamboa (maybe Ideye but haven't seen enough of him), Blanco is a different type of midfielder to Gardner/Dorrans/Morrison but isn't a speed demon.
I think we HAVE to start Ideye against Bournemouth, Gamboa and Mulumbu should both come in as both imo are in our "best XI", Blanco could do with more minutes as well as we haven't seen much of him either.
It looks like Varela won't be ready in time though which is a real shame, he is our one out-and-out winger with pace, trickery and flair and he IS the guy we have been screaming out for over the past 2 seasons.

If you go to Bournemouth Station and head up Holdenhurst Road to the ground - there are two pubs on the way - approx 1 mile. Also a reasonable size car park.
Bm'th are on fire at the mo so will need a top team out or we'll be out.
