Bournemouth are a brilliant side to watch.  Two very good goals.  Ritchie scored one of the best free kicks I've ever seen the other week.

If it stays like this then they are effectively promoted as they have the superior goal difference to Middlesbrough.

Delighted to see Bournemouth basically promoted.

They play some lovely football and I love a good rags to riches story

I didn't realise they have a russian investor, I imagine he isn't an Abramovic but is he worth enough to put MAJOR investment in?

I don't think they have spent massive amounts in fees

They spent £3million + on Callum Wilson but that was largely because they sold Lewis Grabban for similar.

They spent another £3million before on the lad called Rantie.

Not massive amounts really

Glad they've come up but I wouldn't have minded pinching a couple of their players!

The investor was the guy who pretty much kept the club in business in league 2 isnt he? Not sure how much money he has but they havent spent loads 'yet'.

They put a decent bid in for Gray from blues through January though, I think theyll spend some money to strengthen.

For the financial year ending 2013 they posted a loss of £15.3m, that was the year they went up to the Championship I believe. They needed a loan of £8.7m from their owner so he's certainly put some cash in, no doubt he will be claiming it back now their turnover is set to increase massively.

Only playoff places up for grabs today as Bournemouth are practically up. Dingles, Derby and Brentford only teams with anything to play for to be honest. Personally would like Brentford to make it and get promoted.

Blackburn v Ipswich 12:15
Blackpool v Huddersfield 12:15
Bolton v Birmingham 12:15
Brentford v Wigan 12:15
Charlton v Bournemouth 12:15
Derby v Reading 12:15
Leeds v Rotherham 12:15
Middlesbrough v Brighton 12:15
Norwich v Fulham 12:15
Nottm Forest v Cardiff 12:15
Watford v Sheff Wed 12:15
Wolves v Millwall 12:15

Agree. Brentford deserve to be where they are and I'd far rather see them next season than the odious Derby fans (their arrogance before the game at Wembley for the play off final in 2007 put them up there alongside Wolves and Villa in my opinion). Unfortunately I can't see Reading winning which would seal the last spot for the Rams

Very much agree regarding the arrogance of Derby supporters.

However, I think that I could handle seeing them lose at Wembley again.
