We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Bournemouth have played Arsenal and Liverpool, it's not even been a bad return. He's completely right that they're going to struggle.

Potentially top mind games from him though to get one of the other prem jobs when they become vacant.

Horrendously quick, I thought it would have taken a bit longer but getting smashed up and looking completely hopeless will make you more likely to get fired.

Biggest lols reserved for Stevie G's Villa who got beaten by them

The mug clearly wanted to get sacked with all that defeatist talk. They lost 3 games they were very likely to lose and won the 1 game they could have but the way he was talking it's like he thought they were going to lose every game in a hammering and he accepted that.

Stevie G had me a little worried, but I had faith in Parker to pull through, and getting beat 9-0 and then saying "yeah we're poo poo and we're going to see this a few times" is the sort of clutch play that I knew he had in him.

Now dry your eyes, mate

Edit: Jack Ross of Dundee united also got sacked today for getting beat 9-0 lol

This article reminded me of the existence of Alan Curbishley. Given the roundabout of English managers I'm amazed he never appeared again after West Ham sacked him.

What I'm saying is, get him in Bournemouth.

He did really well with Charlton, and more people need to remember that.

(This can be said about both men.)

For some reason I looked into this and it seems as though he exclusively wears clothes from some designer whose gimmick it is to charge insanely high prices for shirts with three white stripes on the arm.

Dunno if it’s the record but Watford must be in with a shout for the most in the Premier League. In the 2019/20 season they sacked 3 and finished with a caretaker manager.
