Don't we need a second successive win before we get a third? :wink:

They are on a 5 game unbeaten run,including beating Brighton.I would be happy with a draw.

Last minute winner from Richards, as he contributes nothing to the team.

Crashing back down to earth with a 2-0 defeat

[Exile]

Bournemouth are up where they are because of blistering home form. Away it's patchy. They also concede cards very regularly. If we can unsettle them with our new-found confidence I have every hope of at least a point, possibly 3.

Walsall 2-2 Bournemouth

Percie to sing "I'd like to teach the world to sing" while holding hands with all the stayaways outside the Bonser Suite after the match.

:oops: Forgot the draw at Notts County silly me .

Have to make Dagenham out third straight win :D

[bleed_red_n_white]

I think people are getting abit over confident on this one, this will be one of if not the toughest test of the season so far, my heart says a home win my head says a home loss... :?:

[Evo Boozy Saddler]

Walsall 2 Bournemouth 2.

[DarkoMavak]

If we score first we will win, and score at least 3. If we go behind we'll battle back to draw.

[WFC_Rob]

That clean sheet has to come eventually.
2-0 home win - Gray & Macken with the goals.

[Welsh_Saddler]

I'm hoping like crazy that I'm as wrong as I can be on this one, but my feeling is that "the bubble will burst" against Bournemouth. I know their away form isn't stupendous, but they are second in the table so they are obviously a very strong side that is the greatest test that our new management team will have faced. As I predicted on the other thread I can't see us getting more than one point out of this one, and I'll be happy with a score of 1-1. Price to score on his recall, and a half-decent attendance of 4,857 - all pies to have sold out well before kick-off.

[WFC_Rob]

I know their away form isn't stupendous, but they are second in the table so they are obviously a very strong side that is the greatest test that our new management team will have faced.

I'm not so sure they're as good now as they were under Howe. Since the turn of the year, they've lost McQuoid (the difference between the two sides at their place, even when Hutchings was our manager), Bartley (don't know a great deal about him, but he's moved to Burnley so must have been half decent) and Howe, of whom people couldn't speak highly enough.

I'm not saying they'll be pushovers, but I don't see why we shouldn't have enough to beat them.

[derbysaddler]

Walsall 1 - 1 Bournemouth

Nicholls for us, someone else for them

[Reading Saddler]

I always hope for a win, but my heart says 2 - 2 / 1 - 3. (got to hope for a pt!)
Bournemouth attack down the wings with speed and can score for fun.

Something that one of their fans said on 606 which made me smile though:

"I'm worried about this coming Saturday, Walsall have turned from being totally useless to being seriously good. They don't just beat their opponents, they pulverise them."

:D!!!!

[DanWalsallFC]

Walsall 1 - 1 Bournemouth

Nicholls for us, someone else for them

Agreed, that lad's got a great future ahead of him and aslong as we keep him quiet I think we'll do well.

[walsallforprem]

I really hope that we win but i also feel a crash back to earth. I'll say 2-1 to them, Price for us and Symes to get two for them.

[canadiansaddler]

Nicholls for us, someone else for them

Agreed, that lad's got a great future ahead of him and aslong as we keep him quiet I think we'll do well.

To be fair his link up play with whatsisname and thingy bob is impressive.

[bescotheaven]

Richards and Butler for us
