It was never going to be easy against unbeaten league leaders Bournemouth but the early departure of Joe Williams after just 13 minutes seemed to knock the stuffing out of a City side whose winless home run is 16 games!
Ian & DaveP discuss the match action starting with the fact that the side were set up wrong to begin with. By the end City were so outclassed that the visitors were knocking the ball around like it was a practice game.
We discuss the fact that 12 years ago the Cherries were struggling in League 2 - is it just taking an £8M fine for breaching FFP for one season that created a platform for 5 seasons in the top flight?
We look forward to Tuesday's game at home to Forest - that home win may still elude as with the visitors resurgent under Steve Cooper by winning 4 of the last 5
