My expectations were low but fucking hell.
First sub on the 71st minute along with 0 shots on target throughout.

Another 2 conceded in quick succession. Not going to lose my shit over a cup game against a team in the PL but we do well to completely eliminate ourselves from games with these sort of collapses.
Preston, Hull and now Bournemouth where we’ve been in it, then pissed away within minutes.

I’m not sure how he could do too much different with what he has available but did everyone really want him to field a starting 11 so devoid of goals. Vidigal aside, what starting 11 wouldn't be devoid of goals? Which is exactly what I said. It’s not a criticism I was just struggling to understand why everyone wanted to see such a toothless line up.

Probably the majority of the line up. We are getting, statistically, dominated, again. Better terminology?

Nope, I'm just not going over the top about one game with a decent number of our squad missing playing a Prem team. tbf i don’t care about this game , expected to lose against a prem team , it’s the league i’m worried about , and he’s taking us down as it stands I wouldn't say that's a prem team we're playing tonight

Is it him or the defenders making continual fuck ups? So far I'd argue most of the goals conceded are down to the players rather than the tactics. Its been mistake after mistake, if it carries on obviously he'll be a gonner but don't expect it to change with a new manager. What a mess this club is. If we get a new manager, he'll be stuck with another bunch of players that he doesn't want. And the cycle goes on again. They'd better make it clear when they put the job in the Sentnul "must be happy to use existing resources and be ready to hit the ground running" !!

seeing TP in the crowd just emphasises the fact that most tactically aware managers start with building a solid defence Neil seems obsessed with getting more people on the wing than Speckled Jim Is speckled Jim available?

Fair enough, my mistake, I thought you were suggesting he should have put a different side out because of it. I think this is the best it could have been really, we're missing so many.

Still no attempt on goal.. Just go AN That’s the worst part for me. I 100% know that we can’t defend and expect the crap that we are seeing in defence. But he’s just brought in about 7 attackers and we still can’t muster a single shot in a knockout cup game. The bloke is an absolute fraud. Useless, absolutely useless.

That’s not the point is it. He can’t manage it Is it him or the defenders making continual fuck ups? So far I'd argue most of the goals conceded are down to the players rather than the tactics. Its been mistake after mistake, if it carries on obviously he'll be a gonner but don't expect it to change with a new manager. It’s his team now. He’s signed 18 players (or however many it is). It’s his fault that we have a centre half pool of Wilmott, Rose & McNally. The defensive dross that we witness game after game is all on him. October looks a tough month & not sure he’ll survive until November.

We've hardly spent anything in the summer, so at least a new manager will perhaps have some backing in the next window?

Please stop using the phrase ‘’prem team’ it’s AFC Bournemouths 2nd team, whilst our team is relatively strong.
When loosing in a knockout game we should be having a shot on goal.

Agree - any thought that we could outscore the opposition with out attacking threat has evaporated Effectively we are piss weak at the back and impotent up front - a recipe for disaster

Stoke are poor but Radio Stoke are awful, chatting amongst themselves and listeners (me) not a clue what's going on.

Did OK first half but League 1 standard defending for the goals, game over No big drama as we are playing a pl team away but we look like giving goals away every game
Just can't see too many clean sheets Don’t see any way of changing that either as such even if the manager goes we are in big trouble

You can’t have it both frigging ways! We’re both playing weakened sides but theirs contains some PL quality players whilst ours doesn’t.

What pisses me off is Wilmot was insanely named as our player of the season, that alone is a recipe for disaster and AN did what, absolutely nothing so yes AN needs sacking, fraud, fraud, fraud.

Wasn’t arsed about the result tonight but would have been very nice for us to give a good account of ourselves. Instead we’ve conceded two shit goals and not managed a shot on target. Looking like the season is a write off before it’s begun.
