A few weeks ago a match against the Cherries would have us thinking about a good result but since the arrival of manager Iraola they've become the Premier League form side. 11 points from their last five matches has seen them climb up the table. We've had two matches against the best in the League and lost both by a single goal, let's hope we don't perform as we did away to Brentford and more like we did against Palace and Arsenal. COYH!! Having played against them quite a few times in the last year or two no Trivia from me this week. I must admit though I rather like their shirt crest.  |

Bournemouth has just one ‘street’ – Orchard Street. This town centre short cut connects Commercial Road and Terrace Road. Apparently, the early residents of Bournemouth didn’t like the suffix ‘street’ as they believed it had working-class connotations. The residents preferred the posher sounding road, crescent, avenue, lane, path, mount, square and triangle. So, that’s why there is only one street in Bournemouth.

The "points deduction derby" as I've heard this game styled. Interesting that 2 of the 3 teams with deductions that season are now in the PL. Rotherham need to up their game...

Rotherham need to up their game... 😁 Hadn't heard that one before Dawn..Back in the 80's when Norwich played Sunderland in the Milk Cup Final apparently the fans from both sides managed not to smash ten bales out of each other on the tube post match. It became known as the 'Friendly Final' and since then a Trophy is played for when the teams meet. Bless!! |

Yes, an unfortunate surge in form on the part of our opponents has put them currently ‘streets’ ahead (groan). We’re overdue a similar change of luck after some ‘nearly’ performances of late against the very best. A point today before a home win against the Cherries’ former long serving manager would be the ideal pre Xmas dish.
