I mean Bournemouth! 😁
They cheated their way to promotion and probably earned about half a billion pounds as a result.
Under the pathetic FFP rules they were fined less than £5 million. They should have been relegated at least 2 divisions.
Hopefully if the new manager gets us sorted out we can help them on their way to another relegation.

Unfortunately I suspect Bournemouth will be nowhere near relegation.

Unfortunately I suspect Bournemouth will be nowhere near relegation. I'm not so sure. A lot of top talent in that squad who will want away. A few started before the season ended. A lot depends on the owners backing which the OP alluded to and whether Howe stays or goes.

Whilst there is history with that name, surely the sentiment is far more reasoned, eloquent and lacking in binmen to be our Enoch.

Howe saying we are really sad for the supporters of this club, what all 10k of them. Been bankrolled along now is time to face reality. As an aside I might fancy a punt on Deeney if he comes up. at the right price. Honest bloke, gets sent off a lot, but who cares.

I’m delighted they have been relegated. Absolutely shithoused their way to the top flight. Fined a comparatively paltry £7 million’ish, was a joke, should have been demoted.

Also delighted to see Watford relegated.
A team whose owners are seemingly never satisfied. They certainly won't be tonight!

Honest bloke, gets sent off a lot, but who cares. hate Howe, hate what got them to/kept them in the PL, hate that they stayed in the league so much longer than us after making significantly worse expensive signings. one thing I vaguely sympathise with them about is their poxy 10k stadium. they've wanted to expand it/relocate for years, but the council didn't want to hear it and has refused all planning applications. I'm sure it'll be big enough for where they'll be in a few years though!

Thing is, it's not just youths; it's far from it, social media is just shining a light on it. On Facebook, the worst demographic seem to be more like 40-65 and it's on pretty much anything that's posted.

Speaking of grounds, how much do you think Leeds will have to spend on their dump to bring it up to PL standards? It will be the most decrepit stadium in the PL, unless you can name worse?

Can’t believe the billionaire dream bankrolled cheating fairy tale has come to a relegation! Gary Neville on sky sports was consoling relegated clubs saying no fan wants to see a team relegated from the premier league........sorry Gary wonder if you thought that when we disappeared without trace? I still have friends believing we should have been more like Bournemouth and told me to stop using money as an excuse as they seem to be doing it right! Guess who he “supports” Liverpool and he’s never been there let alone anfield. Another attitude born from the premier league self entitled generation.he genuinely believed they’d got there on a shoestring 🤦♂️

Hello again !
Hope you are all well personally.
Got what we deserved really.
Generally been pretty poor this season on and off the pitch in terms of recruitment of players and had the management merry go round !
Probably lose some more high profile players although a lot didn't really impress.
We have quite a ageing squad really and Deeney hasn't been the same this season.
Enjoy the break ( again!) and see you soon.

I genuinely wanted you to be the ones to stay up, and you'll have seen that a lot of us wanted Bournemouth down. Going to be an interesting season in the championship. Various potential points deductions, an awful lot of clubs with no money. How do you think Watford will do next year?

Goodison Park is the worst ground in the premier league. That's why they are son intent on moving and have been trying for twenty years.

Various potential points deductions, an awful lot of clubs with no money. How do you think Watford will do next year? Hopefully some sort of promotion battle but it will be hard and hopefully that is realised. Need a bit of stability and to trim the squad wisely . We either seem to have older players maybe past their best or youngsters not really played. And some good talent who apart from Sarr haven't performed. The owners need to let a manager work and have his ideas rather than be looking over his shoulder. TBF Gracia stayed 18 months but paid for a bad last 3 months which included an embarrassing FA cup final. Flores was a strange appointment - quite solid defensively but hardly set us up to score so once went 1-0 down that was it. Pearson started well and gave us hope but after we beat Liverpool it all seemed to go wrong again. Didn't want to re start and it showed. Clearly something went on for him to be sacked - he was out of contract anyway ! Even the club statement didn't acknowledge Pearson for his efforts. And I cannot imagine our owners expected a change to bring results against Man City and Arsenal ? Think that was a clash of egos there.

Goodison Park is the worst ground in the premier league. That's why they are son intent on moving and have been trying for twenty years. The point of open forum discussion - I actually disagree, it’s one of the best. The sense of history, its position, like Anfield, smack in the middle of small residential terraced house streets, its design that harks back to the male dominated flat cap and woodbine era of football - in short, history and character. Sitting on those wooden seats, like at Burnley (another ground I really like), there’s something traditional about these old grounds that the new cathedrals of sport like the Etihad, the Emirates, the London Stadium, Spurs stadium etc. just cannot compete with Maine Road, Highbury, Upton Park, White Hart Lane. And I accept, people may not agree and they may prefer the comfy seats, the unhindered view, wide open concourses, loads of parking; it’s probably an age thing! Leeds Road versus JSS argument...
