Bournemouth fans fume despite Swansea comeback and fire Nottingham Forest message

AFC Bournemouth's fightback at Swansea City gained Scott Parker's side a valuable point but Nottingham Forest still have it in their hands to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League.

Bournemouth went 2-0 down to Swansea after only 12 minutes thanks to a brace from red-hot Joel Piroe. Former Forest right-back Cyrus Christie added a third just before the hour mark with a goal that should have put the match beyond Bournemouth, who remain in second place but are teetering on the edge of the automatic promotion spots after the 3-3 draw in South Wales with goals from Kieffer Moore (2) and Dominic Solanke rescuing a point.

They are on 79 points with nine left to play for and can still be caught by Huddersfield Town as far back as fourth place. Steve Cooper's side went up to third place after a superb 1-0 win at already-promoted Fulham thanks to a first half goal from Philip Zinckernagel.
