    Lansdowne incident

    Police and ambulances all over the area, police doing searches, public being kept away. Doesn’t look or sound good. Centred around the roundhouse hotel, college and roundabout.

    Andy Press - former Groundsman

    Saw this, not sure if it's been posted already, couldn't find it. Chip in if you can. https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/23564301.ex-afc-bournemouth-groundman-raising-money-charity/ https://t.co/ciSmqf4qai

    Compare and contrast

    Them up the road, in a similar position to us We sign off another defeat with polite applause and shuffle out dejectidly for a quiet moan in the car / pub / service station etc. I'm not saying we should be joining them in jumping up and down abusing the manager, actually the opposite...

    Team v Norwich?

    Probably not a game Parker (or anyone) is enthusiastic about, but it could do us good to break this run of tough fixtures with a positive result. How many first choice if any do we play? Wouldn't mind giving Senesi more game time to settle in. -‐-------------Neto Stacey Hill Senesi Greenwood...

    Coverage of Swansea game

    Moving swiftly on from all the nonsense yesterday.... Tuesday nights game away at Swansea, I gather its on Sky? Anyone know if that's a main sky channel or sky red button, and whether it'll be on AFCB TV or not? I'm probably not the only one trying to work out how I'll watch, and I'm sure...

    Non - Ukraine

    Wasn't sure whether to post this separately, but it occurred to me from various comments in threads about media distractions currently, and topics that are perhaps being kept away from the top headlines. I might suggest Ukraine and Russia? Russia has between 50,000 - 100,000 troops sat on the...

    Oh Dom

    Scores two great goals. Misses the easiest chance of the lot to make it 3-0. Typical Dom. Not all his fault though, we need more firepower up there to help him. Once Blackpool sussed us out we had nothing to change it.

    Involved in a "serious" single car collision, had to be cut out of the wreck and has sustained "multiple leg injuries".

    Wolves fall foul of FFP

    UFEA have fined Wolves 200k potentially rising to 600k, and imposed a restriction on their European squad size from 25 to 23. In qualifying for Europe they fall foul of UFEA's FFP due to losses over the past 3 years. This is a different set of goalposts to the various other FFP rules around the...

    Putting the controversy aside for a moment

    Can we not forget to ask questions as to how we injured Ake and Lerma, our two best players, despite them not playing any football for 2-3 weeks. Players absolutely crucial for a physical game like today. We can't control referee decisions, but we can control our training and conditioning routines.

    Wolves away - tickets on sale

    Just a heads up if you didn't already know - the club have put tickets for Wolves away on sale this morning, with the match scheduled for 21/03/20 at 1500. This fixture is far from certain however, due to Wolves' participation in the Europa League. If they make it through their 2 legged tie...

    Anthony Taylor

    Is a disgrace. We really were playing 10 v 12. Even then, Villa had very little to offer.

    Team for Luton?

    The ruthless nature of football (especially at this time of year) brings about our annual dilemma over what to do for the FA Cup 3rd round. Coming hot off the back of the insane festive schedule, and this year with more injuries than we've ever known. So, assuming no miraculous returns to...

    Non - New Zealand volcano

    Away from the frustrating Cherries news, and white noise of last minute electioneering - this event is absolutely horrific. At first it sounds like something out of a Hollywood disaster movie, Pierce Brosnan running down a volcano in Dante's Peak or something. All very dramatic and interesting...

    England bust-up

    Reports this morning that an argument and physical altercation occurred in the England camp between Raheem Sterling (Man City) and Joe Gomez (Liverpool). It's said Sterling grabbed Gomez by the neck as soon as they saw each other at St Georges Park. Sterling was sent home and has been dropped...

    Police using facial recognition cameras

    Not uncommon to see Police officers pointing cameras on us in away ends around the country (trying badly to hide doing so). AFAIK in an effort to gather evidence in the event that something kicks off. Obviously being us, it never does, but I suppose they use the same procedure for every match...
