Ralph Hasenhuttl Doing A Sterling Job Down The Road

Ralph Hasenhuttl masterminded a premier league record-making game last night as not only did he ensure no points were gained on home soil, he somehow managed to get "them down the road" playing like they've never played before and increased their negative goal difference by a Premier League record of 9.

Songs That Are Unique To AFCB

I thought I'd collate and collect all of AFCB's unique songs and put them here.  By unique I mean one that isn't sung at other clubs - and by this I mean really unique songs.  For example I know that we are the only club that sings "Callum Wilson's Bournemouth's Goal Machine" but there are plenty of other clubs that sing "<insert player's name>'s <insert club name>'s goal machine" to the tune of "The Animals Went In Two By Two".

11 Amazing And Tenuous Connections I have With AFCB

I just thought I'd post some weird and intimate facts and connections I have with AFCB to illustrate that while it was once a lower league club languishing in obscurity and at best mid-table mediocrity, it was still a thriving part of the community (and still is, to some extent).

BOUTsy Investigates... Referees

Welcome to what should be a regular feature - BOUTsy Investigates...

In this feature, we use some of the £10m we get from AFCB (for the poaching (we call it saving) of young players from the Scumpton Academy, but that's another story) and send BOUTs off on a no-expense-spared mission to see if science can answer some of football's greatest conundrums...

We Once Beat Northampton 10-0

Yes! It's true! In the 1939-40 season we thrashed Northampton 10-0, lost 2-1 at Notts County, then had a 2-2 draw at home to QPR.  There were no more games after this, as we started getting busy kicking the shit out of Hitler, Goering and co.

Unfortunately these records were expunged and all matches declared null and void for the season.  So while there's no official record of us beating Northampton Town 10-0, we did.  And I promise you it's not just a load of old Cobblers.

Surridge Scores On England U21 Debut

The Daily Echo have reported Sam Surridge has scored in his England U21 debut last night against Slovenia.

The game finished 2-2, with Rambo at fault for one of the two conceded.

It seems that if you're an AFC Bournemouth striker and you get an England call-up then you're guaranteed to score when you do finally make your debut!

Jermain "Ten In A Row" Defoe
Callum "Bournemouth's/England's Goal Machine" Wilson
Sam "Something Here Someday Son" Surridge

Congrats, Sam!
