Ralph Hasenhüttl has lost 9-0 twice, and last time I checked, he's still in a job.

B'mouth have so far won the only game (at least on paper) they could have been expected to reasonably win.

Defeats were against arguably the 3 best sides in the league.

Utterly bizarre sacking if made on the basis on results.

As I mentioned, I hope they go down.
 
They financed him last season and they just crept over the line. They should have peddled him in the summer. Whilst results probably wouldn’t have been any different, it was clear last season that he was t great.

No way we would even look at him or he would come. The parting statement from Bournemouth refers to " need to be aligned with sustainability model " . That us too.
There is a two camp split very firmly developing managers like parker and Neil are in the spend to compete camp. We're in the build to survive camp and its not changing . The two camps will be picking from very different pools of managers

What a stupid comparison.

Bournemouth are the second lowest premiership club in transfer spend this summer. Only Leicester have spent less - but they have an established squad that finished 8th last season. Promoted team have to spend to compete. Fulham - who had a way better team than Bournemouth last season, have spend more than twice as much. Forest have spent £140m.

Bournemouth is not a "let's be careful about how we spend"' policy. It's a suicide note. A white flag. It's, "We can't compete here, let's not even try". It's, "We're going down, so what? We've got a year's TV money, and 3 years parachute payments to finance us after that". Scotty is not prepared to be their fall guy ... he's had one recent relegation on his CV, he doesn't want another. He would have stayed if there was a squad with a decent chance of making it. So he invites them to sack him with post match comments.

By contrast we have spent the 6th largest amount on transfers so far in our league. Only Burnley, Hull, 'Boro, Norwich and Watford have spent more. And of those, only Norwich represents owners making a 'net spend'. The other 4 were financed by sales. The deadline looms - so with more transfers no doubt these figures will be shortly out of date.

Sustainability does not mean not spending. It means smart spending.
