Bournemouth (H) - Tue 20th May, 20:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[The Future’s Blue!]

Bournemouth aren’t a ‘Park the Bus’ team and should try to play a bit of football. If they don’t, with little to play for, it will tell us all we need to know about the state of the league and how the PL operates.

Either way they play, I think we win … hopefully!!!

Fingers crossed for tomorrow but the way we are playing at the moment we would struggle to score with Bonnie Blue

Fingers crossed for tomorrow - after the last 2 games, Bournemouth could put out a team of prostitutes tomorrow and I reckon we'd still struggle to score.

Cheers mate it seems my very first journey from Euston to Leicester Square it didn’t register me getting off at Leicester sq I’ve put a claim in

If I got a chance with her, I'd probably pass the opportunity over to Marmoush

Opposition fans are going to have a field day tomorrow night lol

With Bruce Springsteen playing in the Co Op I could see some fans starting to leave before half time to beat the traffic

Positive words from Pep on Echeverri. I think he's made a good impression.

I hope so as he looks mint.

Let’s get stuck into them from the start. None of that passing about shit.

Fast possession used to be great. Triangles with 2/3 players.

Not sure what’s going to happen but going behind will be interesting.

The usual oldies will start with hopefully Reilly and Echeverri.

I hope Pep picks Nunes at right back. Sure, he isn't a defender, but he adds something in the attacking side. He can get to the bye line and provide crosses into the box, and he is fast tracking back - Akanji cannot do that.

He won't be playing again this season then :)

That scenario would encourage fans to stay til the end :)

Spingsteen at the Co-op and Kylie at the Arena. How will Metrolink cope with the amount of people in town this evening.

Our game should finish at about 21:55 unless there are any serious injuries. By the time the Club has farted about setting up the Kevin farewell it will be gone 22:30 before those planning to stay get out of the stadium.

Utter chaos will ensue, sorry but I will be long gone.

If this starts going wrong on Tuesday it’s going to get toxic in the stadium isn’t it?

It won't for me cos I will have left for the sanctuary of the corner shop to numb the agony!!

Don’t forget the dickheads who will run onto the pitch(traditional you know) and that will take half an hour to clear. Bruce fans will be long gone before we get out.

Really looking forward to the game now and the King Kev event. Been a poor season but I always love the last home game of the season.

I’d be surprised if anyone bothered invading the pitch after this season.

 

[Columbia]

Win or lose we must stay to the end, I will and think it’s the least we can do given his service to the club. We may not ever replicate the success enjoyed since KDBs been at the club and will be impossible to “replace”.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

From an eight o'clock kick off I'd usually expect to be home just before midnight.

Tonight with the send off, players walking around the pitch and the speed City do these things along with parents picking kids up from Kylie and old rockers hanging about I'll be lucky to be home for 01.00, but it's fine Kev and worth it.

I'd no doubt not be as chilled if I had work in the morning though.

 

[BigJoe#1]

A win tonight = CL Football, not that I care that much about the CL. Still want us to win. 3-0 will do nicely.

Gonna be fairly embarrassing for us, one of our greatest players evers last home game
