Looking the real deal, aren't they? Shame the big boys aren't misfiring as they did in 15/16; would have loved to see them do a Leicester. |  |

And Forest are a bona fide proper club who remind me of the good days of football. Doesn't stick in the throat to see them doing great rather than the Bournemouth's of this world. |  |

Their performance this season really feels like something to aspire to. No huge names there, just a bunch of decent players working well as a team and using exceptional tactics to their advantage. | |

The fact they scored only 32 points last season gives us hope if we can stay up. |  |

36 before points deductions, but yes.
What’s worrying me right now is that Southampton were a goal-line clearance away from getting a point there the other week. |  | | |

We in fairness were done by a fairly soft penalty decision, they didn't offer a lot in that game frankly |  |

Well, up to a point I agree. I've always liked Forest.
However, they rightly had a points deduction for PSR breaches. Are we only angry with PSR breaches when the team concerned wins the league, or manages to escape punishment, or do we hate cheating that deprives others of a fair chance, especially cheating of a kind that jeopardises the financial stability of good clubs and the league more broadly?
Also, I can't go along with the mindset that we hate:
(1) big teams that win things,
(2) big teams who used to win things too much, even if they don't right now,
(3) small teams who manage to outperform those in category (2), on the grounds that they are too small to deserve any success,
and only like:
(1) Ipswich; and
(2) those who aren't too big or too small, or too successful, or to unsuccessful, purely on the grounds that they used to do well, but only when everyone had sideburns and retired players ran pubs.
Bournemouth play good football. I think they deserve their success. I wouldn't approve of Man City fans looking down on us because our ground is much smaller, so I don't think we should do the same to Bournemouth. |  | | |

never really liked them since they stole a lot of our glory during SBR's. they were never as good as us, but babaged to win he European cup. How is that justice. Plus Cloughie was an annoying and arrogant bloke and SBR was a gentleman personified. [Post edited 1 Feb 14:47]

Don’t worry, I will do it for you.
Plucky little Bournemouth can do one. |  | | |
