zander Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Simply quite stunned by this he has watched two of his similarly aged team mates move to England to Premiership clubs, both of whom he is better than. To join fucking Bournemouth. Deal might not be complete yet but lets face it the lad doesn't seem to be attracting the attention of anyone remotely big why not at least stay here or wait til the end of the season at least get yourself a half decent gig. Feel sorry for the lad he's been corrupted by agents and or family. Link to comment

Geoff_Tipps Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Feel sorry my arse. He's an adult capable of making his own decisions. Exactly! He is showing a complete lack of ambition and proving money is more important to him than furthering his career. I think it's hilarious and dont want players with the attitude of Ryan at our club. 3 Link to comment
redlenny83 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If he's going to go then quite frankly it doesnt really matter where he goes so long as AFC get the cash they ask for. Bournemouth have met that valuation end of for AFC really. We can moan about his ambition and so on but not a lot we can do about it, lets focus on the young lads who have signed on. As for Bournemouth, if he does go there, i think its a shrewd move. A club who are looking likely to make at least the play offs, have an excellent young manager and he will get games there rather than rotting in the reserves like Grimmer, and to a certain extent, Fyvie. Good luck to him. Lets move on and focus on our players and potential future ones. Link to comment

Don Pops Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Well living in Southampton I am pretty surprised by this move, Bournemouth may have more money than we do but they are a very small club. My only thought can be that he is using them as a stepping board. Link to comment
Miglo don Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 You know what, if he was to change his mind and commit to the club he wouldn't have my backing. Very few players play for the jersey now, all they want is that big money move to any club doesn't matter if they are going to Bournmouth or china. Money is there goal and being rich their ambition. Football is shite now and it's not going to change. Far to much money involved. Link to comment

a don in oz Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Hold on. Bournemouth met our asking price which means they can talk to Fraser. Doesn't mean he's angled for this move. The club are thinking we can get money now... Fraser might take one look at Bournemouth and say fuck off, if he was genuine with the "higher level" pish. Of course if he signs for Mighty Bournemouth we'll know then, that it was pish. Until that happens or he turns them down... this is the club's move. Link to comment
Sonoftherock Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Bournemouth may have more money than we do... There is your answer. There is no other logical reason for moving to a smaller club. The SPL is probably around League One level, so he's not going to learn anything by playing with better players, as he might have done at a bigger club. Bournemouth would also be a terrible place for an 18-year old lad to live. He'll be bored shitless... unless, like Wayne Rooney, he's into grannies! Just seems like such a pointless waste.

Karl Fletcher Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If you look objectively, in some ways it's a sensible move for him. But fucking Bournemouth, jeezo, let's us know where we rank in the scheme of things these days Honours Wessex League Premier Division: Runners-up: 1994 Link to comment
barassie_afc Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have been reading some of the lads tweets recently and frankly he seems incredibly "wet behind the ears". He has a lot of growing up to do , emotionally, mentally and physically. Good luck to him and shame on his parents Link to comment
Dynamo Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 A lot of people love to put the club down, on this thread in particular, but fucking Bournemouth? I actually read someone say it's a good move (aye maybe for his wallet)! And I've also read the standard in league one is better, do me a favour, I watched Walsall v Portsmouth last week and it was beyond shite, both teams worse than anything that's visited Pittodrie this season. I said yesterday that if it was someone like Cardiff or Leicester, then yeah, I'd understand, both clubs who have Premier League ambitions, but to move to a club with ONLY Championship ambitions... Getting ahead of myself and he's not gone yet, but down there for talks he's obviously keen. Link to comment

Bamber Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 slightly away from subject and i know its now 2013 but after last years olympics when we saw genuine athletes who have given up years and years of there lives to attain the highest level of performance that they possible could (whether it be Chris Hoy with his multiple golds or beth tweddle getting her bronze) its so disappointing to see footballers who see the "ambition" when they start playing is to gain money theres that guy just let go by Man City, Michael Johnson - If you havent read the story do so - a child prodigy with the World at his feet a potential England captain being paid 3 Link to comment

Bamber Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Where do you think we'd sit down in England? I'd suggest not that far ahead of bournmouth! Thats the point - were is the ambition? in his back pocket i would suggest In some ways you can almost accept Grimmer - I mean its an established Premier League side, he will get things there exposure - quality coaches etc that we can only dream of. To an extent Fyvie to Wigan is similar But Bournemouth - the money will be in the playing staff not the support structures, the coaches will be less experienced the back up and so much more will be no better than he has here He will get a good wage - will he improve as a footballer?

Stoney Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 The Championship. Are you dreaming? Look at the teams in the lower half of the championship......half of them were playing premier league football in the last 3 or 4 years! What are bournmouth 7th in league 1 with a game in hand, very good chance of playing championship next year! I think we'd seriously struggle to get out of league 1! All you have to do is look where our ex players end up. Very real chance that Fraser will be playing at a higher level than superstar chris maguire next year, nobody slated him for lack of ambition. 1 1 Link to comment

Poodler Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Basically the 2nd worst football team in the history of British football after Burton Albion Where as our trophy haul is impressive? We have stagnated for years, like Bournemouth. Ailing crowds, like Bournemouth. But now that they have an owner they have a few quid to spend and some ambition. A 5 year plan. What's our 5 year plan? To make top 6? Perhaps he is going there into a team pushing for play-offs to gain some experience and then be picked up by a lower end championship team and work his way up, should Bournemouth themselves not make promotion. They may seem like a smaller club but lets be realistic here, we arent in a great position, despite the football we have played this season. I much prefer the players we have and trust that we will be fine without him so lets not act with hunnish behaviour and call him a 'prick' etc because lets be honest, who says no to money these days? 3 Link to comment
