But we bottled it
Theirs not to reason why
Theirs but to do and die

Why did Bournemouth get ball 1 and Arsenal ball 2?
Because it’s AFC Bournemouth?
I know but Arsensl is still first alphabetically?

Are we really having a discussion about who we would have played if we weren't garbage. I can see why we lost though. The money we would have earned would have been enough to pay JDs contract up. That must been why we are awful in the league. Drive the attendences down so we can't afford to pay him up

Fantastic game of football and another example of why the FA Cup is the best competition in the world.
Did anyone else think the commentator kept getting the wrong day during the match until I realised it was a player he was referring too
Or was it just me

But it's based on the 'F' of AFC, not the 's' off Association.

Not that it matters much but AFC stands for athletic football club in Bournemouth’s case.

I would have quite liked a trip to Ashton Gate. I still have not been to Bristol Rovers or Bristol City despite having relatives near there.
