Bournemouth have a favourable 4th round tie in the FA Cup against Swansea. Win that, and they’re just two games away from Wembley. Often, the dilemma for Cherries in these competitions has been that we’ve simultaneously been flirting with relegation. This season, we’re 12th and relatively safe, so ahead of our Thursday night clash under the lights against the Swans, we ponder how importantly we should regard this competition. Prize money isn’t as great, but the prestige is…

Sam wich 3 teams do you think will go down from Premier League this season?
Hypothetical question, but as a Bournemouth fan, would you rather: 1) No FA Cup run but challenging for Europe, or 2) Mid-table obscurity, but we get to Wembley…?
I would genuinely love to see Bournemouth get into Europe
Going for a 3-0 win tomorrow. Start with a strong team then can always make changes once the game is won. Got a week until the West Ham match
3-1. Bolasie danger man for them.
Luke Williams returned to Swansea after previously being on Russell Martin's coaching staff at Swansea. During his time at Notts County, he still lived in Wales but spent more time away from home
Mid-table and a day out at Wembley definitely. While Europe would be great I donβt think we currently have the depth of squad to be playing Thursday/Sunday.
Would like to see lots of goals but a 4-2 to π
4-1. Confidence booster.
At the moment as a bournemouth fan for 20 years I still believe in at the moment making sure u stay up in no matter what league we play in,untill they spend a lot of money in one go for ground training and players sithing w years and they stay there for 10 plus we cannot say we will be safety
Won't be watching it it's on a Welsh channel not English channel its a English competition things like this I don't like
An Australia Day win would top it off for me in Sydney with 38 deg C temperatures expected!!
A ridiculous time wasting exercise that does nothing other than provide game time for some under-utilised subs
3-1to AFCB, surprise start for Tyler Adams maybe?
2-0 win up the cherries
2-0 one before half time, one
Immediately after..ππ
I would settle for Wembley FA Cup Semi Final. I still fondly remember the game vs Grimsby in the Auto Windscreen in 1998, with AFCB fans the full length of the Spur Road, packed Fleet services… Roughly 35,000 AFCB Fans.
Result was meh, with Golden Goal but great memories nevertherless
We need to get used to Thursdays night game, when we are in Europe π
Wembley. At least semi finals. In our history we have never semi-finalled a major, so it's about time we did. Over 100 other clubs have done it since 1872 (League Cup and FA Cup). Let's aim for staying up and beating Scummers in the final at Wembley.
Good Luck π YNWA
Predict 3-1 to Bournemouth
0-2.
Canβt find the match
