SuperTed Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Was really hoping Forest would win and go on to get promoted until I saw that away kit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Bournemouth have been much the better side this second half. Been disappointed in Forest and the complete lack of change from Cooper when they were struggling so much. Good advert for stopping the clock in game as well. Barely been any football played in the last 15 mins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Forest were dreadful second half and truth be told weren't that great first half besides a few chances created, could barely string more than a few passes together, too many hit and hope long balls, not sure if it's how they normally play, but reminded me of watching Barnsley at the end of last season when Ismaël was their manager, haven't watched them much this season but wasn't expecting that from them. Davis would have made a big difference, as at least he would have helped them keep possession high up the pitch and helped them to bring their other attackers into play, one positive of this result is that at least it means it might not be the end of his season, hopefully will be back to play some part in the play-offs.

The_Steve Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Can't stand Bournemouth, nothing club who cheated FFP to climb the football pyramid. Hope they go straight back down. The town is lovely though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate the super league mentality. I would have preferred Forest in all honesty, but I don't think Bournemouth are that dislikeable or have done anything wrong. If you have somebody willing to invest in your club and make it better - there's nothing wrong with that imo, it should be championed not punished. Competition is brilliant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made a staggering £38m million loss in their original promotion year - far beyond the permitted £6m loss figure at the time. They were only fined £4.75m though - most of that figure was on wages (£30.4m) - the very definition of an unfair advantage for a club of their size. FFP is a sham indeed, I agree. It just leaves a bitter pill when the promoted club gets away with such a tiny fine in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just leaves a bitter pill when the promoted club gets away with such a tiny fine in the end. I am not fully aware or knowledgeable about Bournemouth's FFP breach, but I think Leicester broke the rules too (I cannot remember all the details). I think this was in the early phases of FFP? Bournemouth may have argued they haven't had much of a chance to adapt to the rules and reduce losses. God knows. FFP has caused so many problems too, a cocktail of jealousy and excuses. Bury going out of business while having FFP - proves the system fails to protect clubs from bad ownership. Mel Morris at Derby would have been considered a good owner pre-FFP, local and wealthy. All the clubs begging for punishment on clubs for not complying with the rules. Points deductions spoiling the competition and only punishing supporters. Does it make football clubs less likely to attract good owners too? FFP has made football uglier and more political. It isn't for me. Don't get me wrong there should be financial controls in football. But I do not believe it has made a positive difference to football or the wider competition, but maybe I am only seeing the bad?

rodders0223 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Are we really club to be complaining? We've been overpaying for players for nearly 2 decades with no return. We spent 45m on a strike force that didn't even get us out the Champiosnhip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bournemouth, against all the odds, the little club that could. Our promotion isn’t romanticised outside of the club. I wouldn’t expect it to be. Fwiw, while his role was more peripheral by the end, Kodija did contribute to promotion, certainly a lot more than the two other waste of money strikers we bought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
