Get your dilema...I lived and worked in Bournemouth for 8 years, great place and absolutely loved it! Always looked out for their results and been hoping they got promoted just so I can try for tickets for Spurs away game there!

Lived in or around Bournemouth for 15 years other than my uni days and love the club.

But Liverpool will always come first.

I know the feeling I live in bedhampton most local team is Portsmouth.

Always supported Spurs since I was about 5 and always went with spurs whenever they played.

I'd be in the same dilemma if Spurs were to play Shrewsbury. I guess it would depend on how important it was for the two. Ordinarily I'd wish them both the best, but if a win was more valuable for whichever team, I'd want them to win I think.

Fantastic season for the Cherries - well done. And it was also great to see Kermogant perform so well - just don't let him take penalties at crucial times!

My family had a flat on Evening Hill for over 20 years so I have a soft-spot for the club. Can understand why Eddie's better half wanted to move back from Burnley!

Desparately hope we survive to play you next year.

Support Bournemouth for 90% of the season, Spurs for 100%.

OP

Isn't the owner of Bournemouth another dodgy billionaire like Abramovich.

I had the same dilemna, I was born, brought up and lived in Tottenham, I then moved to a flat near Highbury in my teens. I had a great difficulty in coming to terms with who I should support.

I don't understand the dilemma. You are a Spurs fan...

I agree with Chronic. Even if I moved to a different area for more than half my life, I would still be a Spurs fan - I could not even contemplate switching alliances simply because of where I lay my head of a night.

I'll always want my local clubs to do well, i.e. AFC Hornchurch, Romford Town and Dagenham and Redbridge but if any were promoted to our league, or we met them in a cup comp then I could never be swayed away from my life supported team.

With a ground only holding 12,000 I don't think there will be many spare tickets, do you?

There was something similar on TalkSport the other day, a Liverpool fan contemplating giving up being a Liverpool fan to watch his local team. Which was just ridiculous.

Support Bournemouth, and possibly even get a ST, the atmosphere would be great and the games would be good fun, cheaper and easier to get to than Spurs. But never drop your actual team, Spurs4lyf.

Why should you support or take an interest in a team because you've moved to that area/city? Nonsense reason IMO.
