Up The Cherries! 👍🍒 #afcb
Despite a 100 mile trip, my grandson built up 6 home pts last season (2 friendlies, 2 U21s & 2 Women's).

Not even enough for the only home #afcb friendly unless it goes to 1 point. He may end the season with fewer points than he started with. Disappointing!

Interim update on #afcb squad age/contract length. Let me know of errors/omissions. I've included returning loanees. A few missing as Transfermarkt doesn't show contract date.

I'll update it again when the window closes.

NB: I was asked for this on Twitter so I'll have to post it there too.

I bailed out at half-time to watch a Polish crime drama. I think I got the best deal. Dear me!

It would be good if Frank, Silva, Glasner & Iraola all said no to Spurs.

I think Allardyce is available.

Hypothetical question about #afcb ticket price.

They didn’t go up for 6/7 years before we got to the PL. If we’d never made it and were still in L1/2, would they be:

a) lower, to attract a full crowd to see that level of football; or

b) higher, as it would be our main revenue source?

It’s that time of the year with no football and our club is failing miserably to make hourly announcements so I’ll do it…

- Iraola signs 10 year contract;
- Kerkez turns down a move to “finish the project at #AFCB”;
- max pts holders can buy season tickets;
- all prices frozen forever.

#afcb 2024/25 v 2023/24 stats:

Pts ⬆️ 8 (16.7%)
Pos ⬆️ 3 (15%)
Won ⬆️ 2 (15.4%)
Lost ⬇️ 4 (25%)
Scored ⬆️ 4 (7.4%)
Conceded ⬇️ 21 (31.3%) ⬅️ wow!!

World class Performance Centre open
Repurchased Dean Court

Profit on Huijsen: £13,795 for every PL minute played! ⬅️ also wow!!

Not a bad season.

Fun fact: Leicester finished on 25pts and a GD of -47. It means Enes Unal's stunning 90th min equaliser v West Ham on 16th Dec (GW 16) made us 'retrospectively' mathematically safe!

That is 6 game weeks earlier than our previous best last year.

#afcb bought Dean Huijsen from Juventus for £12.8m;

Sold to Real Madrid for £50m;

10% of profit to Juventus (£3.72m).

If he plays the whole game on Sunday he’ll have played 2,500 PL mins.

That is a profit of £13,392 per minute!

New world record for VAR?
58:52 Forest get a free kick
60:07 Free kick taken (1:15 delay)
60:09 Goal scored (VAR check)
66:23 Goal confirmed (6:14 delay)
66:43 West Ham kick-off

Before VAR we had to go with the ref.

Surely VAR should have max 30 secs to prove the ref wrong?

Whatever happens these 5 clubs will end the season 8th to 12th (though it could be in any order). There is a certain similarity in all 5 of them and their recent history. #afcb
May 17, 2025 at 2:23 PM
Assuming Huijsen actually does play the last 2 games for #afcb, (and I hope we do get the chance to say goodbye) what happens if he picks up a serious injury?
May 17, 2025 at 1:12 PM
With Boro's season over, does that make Travers available as back-up keeper for our last 2 games? #afcb

10 years ago when #afcb hit the big time: front page on WSC.

Luckily none of those three speech bubble came true. 🙃
May 13, 2025 at 10:02 AM
That’s as ridiculous as the Kluivert one against Chelsea.
May 7, 2025 at 8:26 PM
2024/25 is the first PL season #afcb have not even flirted with relegation.

We have never been lower than 14th - match week 2 after 2 draws. (It should've been 6th but for Dango's 'handball goal'!)

In fact, since beating Spurs in match week 14 we have not been out of the top half.
May 6, 2025 at 9:40 AM
Everton, Man Utd, Spurs, Wolves & West Ham all won cups in the 50s & 60s, have massive stadiums and yet #afcb will finish above all of them in the world’s greatest league.

That can’t be right. Something HAS to be done about the stupid points system. It’s ruining the game.

If you were at the Emirates yesterday you probably think you had a pretty good day. But I was at the Emirates yesterday on my birthday. Many thanks for the wonderful gifts #afcb

Familiar! #afcb

Good news re Eva! We know #afcb can’t get the pts back even though we ‘know’ we would’ve held on. But…

If such an error caused a club to miss a title or get relegated (as in 2020), would/could they sue?

“It’s always us”, “club badge” etc, but is there any data on such things for all clubs?

Anyone know what a “strategic affiliation agreement” is? #afcb
April 28, 2025 at 4:35 PM
It’s easy to get carried away with Bill’s announcement. When he says “within 2½ years” I think he meant from when planning permission is granted, not today.

Not all local residents will be in favour but do we have a majority of councillors on board?

How much can be done without planning?

We thought Fletcher’s goal 16 years ago today was priceless at the time. What must it be worth today? #afcb
April 25, 2025 at 6:52 PM
Dean Court is ours again. Nice touch too announcing it on Grimsby Town Day! #afcb

Eddie Howe back at work less than a fortnight after being hospitalised with pneumonia. I really hope he is fit and well enough rather than pressurised by either his bosses or (more likely) himself.
