Pray For The South Stand

The second batch of tickets for the Real Madrid friendly was snapped up by eager fans in a few hours yesterday.

The temporary seats have started to go into the south stand and the club have told the world that they anticipate the stand will be ready for the big match on Sunday.

Fans who bought tickets yesterday where handed a piece of paper telling them that if the stand does not get the relevant safety certificate then they should not travel to the game on Sunday and will get a refund on Monday.

Let’s all pray for the south stand and hope that we make the news for the right reason on Sunday evening.

Capital one cup tickets are now on sale and they are offering a limited amount of tickets on a buy one get one free basis.

If you quote the code that can be found in the local press then you can snap up to tickets for £12, a bargain price to watch the mighty Cherries.

AFC Bournemouth have a couple of friendlies before the Madrid game, they visit Poole Town tomorrow night (18/07/13) and Woking on Saturday afternoon.

Final bit of news for this week is the change of crest, the timing of this change is definitely questionable.

Coming a few weeks after the club launched three new kits for the next couple of seasons.

I do like the crest though and haven’t heard too many grumbles about it.
