I remember that, I need to check it out but I think we won 2-1. Newcastle scored first.
Micky Quinn screamer. Was right behind it at the South End.

It’s bollox. The south west is Cornwall, Devon and Somerset. We’ve always been south coast or central south.
Wessex perhaps? But Dorset is South West, so Bmth is really in the SW. But agree, Dorset & Hants should be South Central.
Its wrong up here too, I live in SW Beds and it's classed as 'East of England' whereas Oxford is South East? Probably because it's posh
There needs to be a South Midlands.
Agree, formally (assume its formal anyway. to some extent?) we're South West, no such thing as South Central is there?
But yes, we should be South Central. I'd prefer it anyway, rather than being lumbered in with a load of yokels/bumpkins .
Plus, I think Bournemouth has always been more alligned culturally (for want of a better term) with Southampton, hants and South East, than the South West, which begins around Wareham way perhaps, certainly Dorchester. Even Poole has always seemed a bit more 'west' flavoured compared to Bournemouth (more of a twang in the accent). Maybe not so much the past decade or so though.
Which sort of makes sense, given Bournemouth was hants until 70's (or was it 80's?.)
I like to think of west Dorset being south west, east Dorset being south central. My imaginary border being when I get past Dorch / Weymouth. Dorset having a bit of both
Ake must have done really well for you - so well he even got your club to move location!

It couldn't happen to a nicer bloke. Absolutely delighted for him.

Best player ever to wear the red and black shirt, IMO. (Before I'm shot down, George Best was the better player, but not when he played for AFCB). No surprise how well he has done since leaving us, but he's probably surpassed even his expectations this season. Fully deserved.
I don't remember him having a bad day.Yep, we've had decent players, but Ake takes it reasonably comfortably imo.
No idea how we managed to hold onto for so long as was clearly capable of playing at a higher level to us (better team in pl/playing in Euro tournaments).
Rolls-Royce of a player, so composed, never flustered. Always seemed to deliver a minimum 7 out of 10 performance, even on a bad day.
And seems to be a model professional and decent bloke. Really pleased for him.
