There have been comments made apropos Bournemouth's spending in the transfer market. Eddie Howe has done an impressive job at the club.When he took over in October 2012 after 12 games,Bournemouth were 20th in League One and they got promoted that season in 2nd place. He of course has taken them into the hallowed land of the Premier League. Edited by Willo (22 Jun 2020 9.00am)

My guess is he wouldn’t have wasted it on some of the appalling buys Howe has made. For that reason alone I don’t consider Howe’s performances once he made it to the PL that impressive.

Some of course haven't lived up to expectations but there have been some impressive transfer dealings at Bournemouth whilst Eddie has been at the club : Tyrone Mings £8 Mill, Ryan Fraser £400K, Callum Wilson £3K and a sell-on clause, David Brooks £11.5 Mill, Josh King Free, Matt Ritchie £400K, Adam Smith Free, Dan Gosling Free, Junior Stanislas Free etc etc.

This season they have added Danjuma £16 Mill, Billings £15 Mill, Kelly £13 Mill, Stacey £4 Mill etc. Last season their net spend was around £60 million, signing the likes of Lerma £25 Mill, Solanke £19 Mill, Rico £13.5 Mill, Mepham £12 mill, Brooks £11 Mill.

I shall refrain from responding to any further slurs as such exchanges only serve to de-rail the 'Thread'. You must be the poshest geeza in Croydon. You could of just said I was at the snooker club I'm not a proper bulls***ter and f*** you if you think I am anyway back to the discussion eddie howe is a PE teacher looking t*** who got schooled by headmaster roy. What the the f*** is besmirching 😂

Or perhaps carrying a better class of bladed weapon than others, like a rapier or broadsword or something. Sword cane and tailored suit would be good, like the Kingsman guy. Samurai swords and machetes just so chavvy.

Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |
