Ooh, ooh, I’ll take this one because I absolutely guarantee we’ll win it and then I’ll be a lucky charm!
“Why will we win it?” I hear you ask… well, here’s why:
It’s against our ‘local rivals’, so by rights we should lose
It’s away from home and we’re recently (even more) impotent away from home, so we should lose
Bournemouth are at home and they’re decent at home, so we should lose
Bazza says we’re shit and we’re always shit and Puel’s rubbish and we’re never going to score again and we’re boring and so on
Bourneouth are seemingly on a decent-ish run recently, so we should lose
We’re not on such a decent run (apparently), and so we should lose
For all these reasons we will DEFINITELY win, so get your money on it!

Maybe our away form is poor because the players get tired travelling?
So they should be able to cope with an hour down the road - Saints to win 2-1.

Nope, I’m really pessimistic about this one and can’t see a different result to last season, they’ll really be up for it, we won’t!
3-1 the Cherries

Looking forward to my first south coast Derby at the weekend
BTripz YOU ARE WRONG. I have already explained why we will win and so I expect a grovelling apology on Sunday at about 3.30pm, thank you very much!
Lineup random guess:
BFG
Cedric Fonte VVD Bertrand
Romeu (is he not getting tired yet?!)
Clasie Hoj
Tadic JRod Redmond, always Redmond
Poss Boufal for Tadic but who the fuck knows.

I suggest that the apology will be coming my way…

Sadly Romeu will get his rest as he got booked last night and is suspended for Sunday.
We’ll lose this 2-0, no doubt we sure as shit ain’t gonna score.
Oh bollocks. In that case, maybe Puel will play Hoj as the deepest midfielder and bring in Davis or JWP as the other one. If it was me, I’d play VVD in Romeu’s place and pair Yosh and Fonte in centre of defence… Then I’d play with all attacking midfielders and fuck the consequences!

The way things are going I can foresee VVD being converted in to a powerhouse centre forward. Let’s just hope it is more successful than the Redmond > Henry debacle.

Hang on, that’s a different result to last season, but you clearly say that you can’t see a different result to last season? Weird!
I cant see a different result to last season 1-1

Semantics dear boy, the result is the same the score is different!!
What you’re saying is wrong as your predicted result is a draw whereas last season’s result was a loss!
Don’t worry about Bob, it’s just his new ‘lucky’ pre match pessimisim thing
… tbf he seems to be having a modicum of success with it, tho’ it might be more to do with him offloading his unlucky mankini to Oxfam, Portsmouth

With our strike force? Yeah right!
Seriously though, JRod will get off the mark this weekend, you mark my words.

Make of this what you will. Last night I had a dream that I was reading a paper and in that paper was printed Bournemouth 0 - Southampton 1. Fits right in with recent results but if you put your mortgage on it and it doesnt come up, dont blame me!!
