Just 2 points and 2 goals for these since the World Cup. They lost 4 of their last 5 before the break as well. Home win.

Such a strange team Bournemouth. When I have seen them they have looked ok but just can't score.

Few new players seem to have injected a bit more into them, but we should be winning and if we do they gap to the bottom 3 should make nice viewing at FT

Just the one match ban for Lemons, right?

Please stop calling him that.

Aw, no fun.

The last couple of times I've seen them (admittedly on motd) they've looked not bad and been a bit unlucky so not expecting a walk in the park but I'll be disappointed if we lose.
DWs team for me although so far JL seems to prefer the balance with Kilman. Suppose its Collins who apparently always had a rick in him or Kilman who lately has at least 2.

Agreed, it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth

 

[Stan Hullis]

I have a horrible feeling we will lose this one - nothing to back that up though.

He'd probably be sour if he heard me call him that.

Its your inner Wolves fan not allowing you to be over confident...."something bad will happen soon you know"

 

[Tony Towner]

They were alright on Saturday, worth their point, but as long as confidence doesn't become complacency we should be fine.

 

[The Bear]

A first half more like Liverpool rather than Southampton and we'll beat these comfortably.

Essentially yes. 3 wins on the bounce just feels like a leap too far

Not when you have Bournemouth at home up next it isn't!

I am making no prediction as I am pretty much the ultimate jonah in the history of the entire internet.

Always expect the worst, then the worst than can happen is it meets your expectations

Nickname controversy aside, it is just the one match he'll miss?
