SAM OUT FOR ROVERS
Sam Vokes
Sam Vokes

STAR striker Sam Vokes's latest international call-up has added to Cherries' mounting Easter crisis.

Vokes will miss Cherries' League One clash with Tranmere Rovers on Monday after being claimed by Wales for their European Under-21 Championship qualifier against Bosnia.

Cherries' leading goalscorer must report for international duty on Sunday when the Wales squad leaves for Bosnia to start preparing for Wednesday's Group 10 showdown in Sarajevo.

His absence further depletes an injury-ravaged Cherries squad, which will also be missing experienced defenders Neil Young and Warren Cummings over the Easter period.

"It's unfortunate for us, to say the least," said Cherries boss Bond. "We're a victim of Sam's success. It's going to be a difficult one, but there isn't too much we can do about it.

"I've had a chat with Brian Flynn (the Wales under-21 manager) but there is nothing they can do. The rules are that you can ask for a postponement if you've got three or more players on international duty.

"If we had a huge squad and lots of strikers to choose from, it might not be so bad. But losing one player out of a squad of about 10 fit and available players isn't ideal."

Vokes will be available for Cherries' trip to Gillingham on Saturday, although both Young and Cummings are set to be sidelined due to respective ankle and shin injuries.

Lee Bradbury, who has missed the past three games with a viral infection, could be in contention for the visit to Kent after returning to training on Monday, as could back injury victim Jo Tessem.

Bond added: "I'm hoping Lee will be available although he's lost the best part of a stone in weight. I also need to see how Jo is during the week.

"It's too early to start thinking about putting a team together because there are too many imponderables so we will have to see how everybody is towards the end of the week."

Bradbury could be a surprise choice to fill the right-back berth having stepped in during a recent behind-closed-doors friendly against Portsmouth, while Bond may turn to youth.

"If we need to play the youngsters, we will," said Bond, who had youth team quintet Joe Partington, Josh McQuoid, Matt Finlay, Billy Franks and Ryan Pryce on the bench against Yeovil on Saturday.

"I don't think some of them are ready yet but because we haven't got many bodies, opportunities maybe given to people before I believe they are ready for them. And like all these things, one or two may end up surprising you, with Sam Vokes being a case in point last season."

Bond described using Bradbury at right-back as a "possibility" and added: "We needed somebody there against Pompey so we had a look at Bradders. It gave us an opportunity to have a look at him and he's got the experience."

Great news for Kevin Bond. The 'mamanger' has someone else to blame for the defeat and poor performance almost a week before the match is played.

I guess we should get used to not having Sam up front for us, shame but good for his career so congrats to him. Interesting I will play the youngsters quote from Bond, perhaps he is listening after all! Then again lets see if these are words or actions. "Bradders"! KB and him are best mates, no chance of him being left out for a young hopeful to get some experience!
Posted by: lymocherry, Lymington on 8:09am Wed 19 Mar 08
Playing the youngsters...like he has a choice now, we don't have anyone else left!!!!
It will give us and idea how we will do without sam up front, let's hope ok, it hardly warrants having a go at Bond though nick.

give the youngsters a chance they might surprise you, they proved their selves in the reserve game last night and had a great result

Congrats to Sam and hard luck to Bondy. Does it really matter we are relegated anyway, 10 points loss or not. We are not good enough and post of that blame lies with the Board. They have no idea of how to run a Football Club and the introduction of this guy Jackson who appears to be a fraud will not help.
Posted by: Richard, Bournemouth on 9:24am Wed 19 Mar 08
Good luck to Sam Vokes and...........

BOND OUT NOW!

Usual Cheer from you then? Move on...... The club has never been run right? But now do you run a pretty much non profit making business destined to fail?

hmmmmm think i've heard that from you before? Oh yeah... about 700 times! Go to the game. The majority of the fans are supporting bond and the team. Me, you and even Gordon The Tramp make any influences on his job, lets just get behind the team!! The stories about Sam Vokes and your idiotic comment and participation on this website AGAIN is "get bond out". We get it, we've all read it. Now shut up!

sadly, too true.

Anyway at least " my main striker was on International duty" is a new one for a change.

That all said, congratulations to Sam.

I understand FIFA rules sayhe can switch back to England at Senior international level, hopefully he will.

Good luck to Sam.

Good luck to the younger lads. Hardly the ideal way to give them a chance, but much better than not trying them , as appears to have been the tactic (what am I talking about, Bond having tactics) previously!

Lymocherry, you are right, the results do not tell the whole story. Having a squad which, even with the injuries this season, should have been competing in this league and sadly all to often has not, tells some more of it though.

No your right Lymo Just think how many points we could have had if Bond had selected Vokes ahead of Bradbury earlier in the Season when we threw away games against opposition who where no better than us but alas we will never know why . Its still not a very good record for Bond to put on his CV though but I doubt if he will ever need one.

What about the games when we couldn't field a team, what about the long injury list etc it's all well and good moaning about Bonds record but there is more to it than not playing Vokes...

What about getting rid of the heart of the squad in close season? What about relying on being able to make up the squad with loanees? What about playing Bond's mates long after everyone else could see there were better options?

As always, there are two sides to every arguement which just leaves us with opinions. In my opinion, KB has been the worst manager in my living memory.

The last twelve matches have produced 19 points. Believe it or not that is play-off form! As for Sam this is a lad who has come on a lot during the season. Maybe, just maybe, Bond got it right in not expecting a 17 year old - he was 17 at the start of the season - to carry the burden of leading the line from the very start.
I am neither pro- or anti- Bond but concede that I have got splinters in the usual spot from fence-sitting.

Bond and Mostyn are big mates so we are stuck with a brown envelope manager who is crap. The league position does not tell lies unlike Mostyn..

What heart of the squad? do you mean the bunch of no good hangers on who haven't gotten a game anywhere else in the league, those you mean, as for the so called top players, they wanted more money and the club didn't have it, we all have opinions but you have to put things into perspective.

Your first point is correct, however, we have picked up 7 points in the last 7 games, which is relegation form! As they say, there are lies, **** lies and statistics!

the heart of the squad i presume was browning, broadhurst, coutts, platt, tindall, maher, who seemed to be the ones that everyone was saying had to go. the club went down the loan in route and whilst i prefer our own players nobody can tell me that pearce, henry, jeracam, and gradel, made our team poor. over the last 10 years we have lost or sold at least 12 of our best players due to lack of money, and failed to attract player good players for the same reason. bond has made some poor deals but then so has alex ferguson. as a club we have to look forward and not back and show some trust in those at the top. you might not like them but at the moment they are all we have got

And in the last game we got 3 points thats top of the table form, we can make the statistics fit whatever argument we like, but the point about Vokes may well be right, after all he was only 17 and it would be alot to expect of a young lad like that to be the no1 striker at the start of the season, good thing is he took his chance when he got it but it might have not worked out as we have seen with others.

Bond's fantastic signings to add to the already injury proven Anderton who is, although cultured, past his sell by date : Telfer, Perrett, Bradbury, Tessum, Garry (unlucky) none of whom inspire.
Excluding Max Gradel and Wilson from Pompey none of the other loan signings have exactly added much even allowing for the potential of the Reading Lads.

Deal - get rid of Bond or No deal keep Daddies boy. Not a hard decision.

I wish we knew more about the phantom MIdlands man because all the false dawns of investors in the background have faded.

We are between a rock and a hard place.

But our last 3 away fixtures have yielded a grand total of 0 points! Let's hope for an upturn in those stats come 5pm Saturday.

I think most people who post on here want the best for AFCB. I am beginning to think its the poor articles posted by the ECHO which are baiting some of us, then we end up arguing with each other. Bet we all wish AFCB well when it comes down to it. But when Mr Perrett et al from the Echo stir things up by raising the same old points, getting KB to make stupid comments about the games all hell breaks lose on here.

Daily Echo stop the stirring about things you don't know about regards the Admin and if KB hasn't anything useful to say don't print it! Perhaps there would be less falling out then.

Yes put it into perspective Bond got the Team He said he wanted and we lost lost lost then I concede when he had bring Moss back in and Telfer showd something that Bonds Boss is sadly lacking, honesty and Vokes came in we started winning I grant you that the squad needed changing but look what he brought in Bradbury Perrett Tessem Telfer Bergovic OcConner Come on Lymo dont have a go for the sake of it You know and in fact you have said on several occassions Bond is a useless Manager

looks like everyone has got short memories again. Early in the season Sam could not score a goal to save his life , in fact Bret looked the better striker. Bradbury to be honest was disappointing but always tried don't know if we played the ball his way or not but something happened as he always did score goals. As for the 3 games away 0 points were any of you at the matches, we matched Leeds for most of the game and gave away 2 sloppy goals (oh yes Sam Missed quite a few chances) 2 penalties the game before. We have NOT played relegation form this season but HAVE given away a lot of stupid goals at a time we were not scoring any. But we have more than matched most teams who came to dean Court. Bondy has not been the best but neither has he been the worst Remember Pullis now pushing for prompotion to the Premier league. Just shows what a bit og money behind you can do. So lets get behind the team and stop all the sniping

And the game before we got 0 points which is bottom of the table form. Its not statistics that have put us where we are its losing games and even if we were unlucky saying that wont give us the points Surely the Manager must accept the responsibility for the Teams performance or whats the point of him being here

the bunch of no good hangers on

signed by Bondy include Telfer, Perrett, Bradbury and Tessem.

Bradbury as a full back sums up Bondys preparation.

I give up on this subject, there is so much tunnel vision when it comes to Bond, believe what you wan to believe I know in my head and heart that the season is down to far more than 4 players over 30, which incidentally is no different than we had last term. The team only came together a week before the season because we had no hope on the transfer market, the best of the players we then had in the small squad went injured for weeks if not months, and the loan signings could not fill the hole left, I am no fan of Bond but I will not put the blame for all of this on his shoulders, where was the money for a decent squad in the summer, where was the money for decent players in January, and where was the money that was meant for players after the sale of our best player, come on people, Bond is not the best but look at what he had to work with, he shoulders some of the blame of course but there are many at the club including lazy players who also have too, the whole club needs to wake up and sort itself out, out with the deadwood, the men with god complexes, the lazy, the inept, the liars, leave the club so we can start to trust them place again, Mostyn if he is the right man needs to prove it NOW, and if this Mystery Redknapp wants the club and is going to sort it out then prove it, enough of this we are sick of fighting each other whilst others line their pockets and take the ****. Rant over!!

I dont allways agree with Lymochery but he is right its not all Bonds fault although he is the manager and he insisted that he got the players he wanted which if true shows his lack of talent but I suspect it is just a bit of Brown nosing to Mostyn . No Lymo is dead right there are others to blame
1. Jaffer for appointing Bond
2. Mostyn for giving him a new contract.

And he is right about some of the Players sitting it out . I think he has summed it up perfectly the liars must leave the Club so we can trust People again so Get out Mostyn Sly and the others who lied and take Bond with you. To much damage has been done
