A guy I use to work with was a Leeds fan but his best mate moved to Bournemouth so they use to go watch them I think from Div 1 onwards and he said the fans were great.
Based on history and the fact Scotty Cardigan Parker is in charge they must be favourites for the drop

Attended Dean Court a couple of times for non-Leeds games when I lived in Bournemouth for four years.
My brother still lives down in the South-West in Poole.
How about they let us go on bank holiday, let them sing 'we all hate Leeds scum' we demolish their shithole stadium, they get it re-built so more supporters can go instead of a measly, laughable 11,000
And the Leeds fans could help carry the demolished stadium to a scrap yard to pay for the fuel costs. Yeah i see where you are coming from.
The best bit was Vinny reading a Wilco script knowing deep down there was going to be chaos. It shows us how far removed from reality the people in power were even then. Who lets a football club the size of Leeds (and we were sleeping then) down to a seaside town on a bank holiday with a game of that magnitude.
Bournemouth born and bred, and still living there. You're right about the badge, it's awful, even worse than our crappy shield thing.
Unfortunately, they can't afford anything bigger than the stadium they currently have - they're lucky to have that, considering that they were on the verge of ceasing to exist a few years ago.
