Charlie Austin has posted a picture on Twitter of him at his daughter's birthday party. On the back

of a chair is an AFC Bournemouth training top :sherlock:

In fairness, AFCB tickets are like gold dust but they couldn't have made plans to expand the stadium last year because promotion wasn't a given at the time they needed to decide.

I'm joshing, of course, I've yet to see a game there but I've always liked their shameless rip off of the atalanta badge.

one season with Poole Town does not make him a Bournemouth boy

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Bournemouth will go straight back down.

is modelled on a player from the 1960s. Jesus wept, r. You might want to read up on these things

Burnley and also tried to get him to AFCB when they were under transfer emargo. Trained with them for weeks but they weren't allowed to bring him in.

Anyway - he has Eddie to thank for him breaking onto the scene. So that, coupled together with an owner willing to put some money up might mean that he has been persuaded.

They're up with the big boys now all the same. Clubs with bigger resources have come up annually and struggled.

I've not paid much attention to them to be honest but last week on MOTD it looked to me like an FA Cup 3rd round match with a big club at a tiny club and we know how that works out more often than not.

None of us to be the best of my knowledge play for the club.

Said top may not have been Austin's.

[Rich]

assume that he'd be careful before posting such a picture to Twitter.

Anyway - the big issue here is - why do you have an Arsenal training top.

[Ben.]

Mings and Gradel especially, the lad King is rapid as well.

[redgunamo]

The invitation to join the backroom staff at the Arsenal probably got lost in his spam folder.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

My kid does.

He correctly decided that both home and away kits were f**king awful so he chose the training top much to the delight of his father.

I don't really like Puma stuff, the shirt doesn't date, you don't sweat all over place or look like a **** wearing it (imo anyway, possibly subjective).

[Luis Anaconda]

Willey was rather impressive (stop sniggering). Has to be a shoo in for all one-day sides for England from now on.

Shame he is going to Yorkshire :-(

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Certainly on a chap of alcohol buying age in a social environment.

Did you see the pic on here a few weeks back of the lad attending the Emirates Cup?

I could be mistaken but I am quite sure David Gower (I think it was him) was interviewing a player who was out on the field at the time by means of an ear piece that chap had.

Quite bizarre.

[Luis Anaconda]

[Ben.]

I really don't like Yorkshire very much (the cricket side, if j is about) it's the combination of winning and Australians that's putting me off I think.

[Ben.]

wasn't great was it, my first thought was a lost bet tbh

[Luis Anaconda]

to fill in when they provide half the England team I suppose

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Obviously my sole thought should have been “what a bell-end”.

[Ben.]

how as you say they lose half a team consisting of their best players and still dominate so much.
Kent on the other hand could do with getting rid of half our team, I'm convinced Steve Harmison now would do a better job than his brother, batting as well.

[Ben.]

I felt a bit sorry for him tbh, in his eyes it looked like he knew.

[Luis Anaconda]

Hope you win tomorrow. Might try and catch some of that in the afternoon

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[Ben.]

same with Key, half our team look (and play) like they have gone straight from an all you can eat restaurant to the game.

[Luis Anaconda]

[Ben.]

but the state of the others would tend to point it in our direction.
