Up The Cherries In All Departments - AFC Bournemouth Fans Podcast

Just over a month ago, we spoke with former Wycombe Wanderers owner Rob Couhig about his ambitions to take over the reigns at Reading Football Club. The Royals, formed in 1871, were in crisis mode under Chinese businessman Dai Yongge who had recently been disqualified by the EFL. Rob Couhig had taken Dai to court over a break in exclusivity whilst various parties blamed Rob for the sale collapse w...

Its time for Cherry Picking as Craig, Matt and Malcolm are back discussing all things going on at Dean Court. Its been a week of reflection at AFC Bournemouth as the Cherries stare failure to get into Europe in the face... but is it really failure? We discuss. We also cover off the Villa game and whether Tyrone Mings and the elbow incident was malicious or accidental. Alex Scott suffered a horrend...

We are off to Manchester City following their FA Cup game against Crystal Palace and ahead of facing Pep Guardiola and his star studded team we spoke with another star in the form of Lou Cotterill - bassist in the band Cassia. We discussed City's stars growing up, the game and the priorities as well as touching on the current tour the band are on, the new album and recording in Frome - of course i...

Its the business end of the season and AFC Bournemouth are in POLE POSITION for a European place come the end of the season after a famous 2-1 victory over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium thanks to a Dean Huijsen header and Evanilson's back post conversion did the double over the Gunners. We look at the result PLUS we also look at what the Cherries need to do against Aston Villa then Manchester Ci...

Following the disappointing controversial draw against Manchester United where Evanilson was sent off (which has since been rescinded) and a very dubious equaliser for the Red Devils, AFC Bournemouth are off to The Emirates where they haven't had much success in recent years (we were even 2-0 up a few years back and ended up being defeated 3-2). We met up with the star of AFTV - Arsenal Fan TV - C...

Its Cherry Picking time again and this week Craig, Matt and Malcolm discuss all things Cherries!

Matt and Malcolm give their opinions on the draw with Manchester United while Craig l...

Yet again, AFC Bournemouth play out of their skins and yet again the referee and more notably those at Stockley Park messing around with VAR completely mess things up again with a red card for Cherries striker Evanilson followed by no punishment for Manchester United's Ugarte after a foul on Dango before they allowed a goal which was offside failing to draw any of their trademark lines. We dissect...

Manchester United have had a torrid season this term however they do have a chance of European Glory once again so will this game against AFC Bournemouth really be a priority with a game against Andoni Iraola's former side Athletic Bilbao on the horizon? We welcomed on James Ryan from the fantastic band The Slow Readers Club to talk about his recent album Out of a Dream and their whole career plus...

AFC Bournemouth won their first game in a long time in the Premier League overcoming Fulham 1-0 at Dean Court through a very early Semenyo goal. This weekend we are off to Crystal Palace, at one point seen as a bit of a bogey side for the Cherries. Palace started the season badly before going on a very good run which contained our Boxing Day draw. Since reaching the Semi-Final's of the FA Cup with...

Its Cherry Picking Time and Craig is back from his adventures to Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the UAE and Singapore looking for the Merlion to join Matt to discuss the Cherries. Following our 1-0 win against Fulham on Monday Night, we dig into the big decisions which got the club back to winning ways.

After Wednesday's game against Ipswich Town, we are back on the road and off to the London Stadium for the second time this season to face West Ham United, a team who have been difficult for the Cherries to overcome in recent times. We spoke with James from E20 Zone TV to discuss if Graham Potter is the right man, the challenges under Lopetegui and what the club need to do to turn fortunes around....

Reading Football Club is a football club which has existed since 1871. One of the oldest in league football is under real threat of going out of existence with their owner Dai Yongge disqualified by the EFL. In this recording we spoke to Rob Couhig who used to own Wycombe Wanderers about the situation at the Select Car Leasing Stadium or known better to many as the Madejski Stadium. We discuss Rob...

Welcome back to another Cherry Picking as Craig and Matt get together to discuss AFC Bournemouth being crowned Champions! The women could also complete a TREBLE after winning the title on the Dean Court pitch over the weekend. We also touch upon our finances and the loss and whether we should be worried. We also cover off Brett Pitman joining Dorchester Town who are trying to win promotion to the...

Manchester United have been a football club in a state of chaos with Jim Ratcliffe taking over a percentage of the club from the hated Glazer family at Old Trafford. But Jim hasn't been that popular at his boyhood club either with staff's free lunches being cut, Amorim struggling on the pitch with limited tools to work with and the Theatre of Dreams leaking from above. We welcomed back on lifelong...

Its been a remarkable season so far with the prospect of an FA Cup Semi-Final and first venture out at Wembley since that 1998 Auto Windscreens Shield game against Grimsby Town (we are excluding those Spurs games) and with the team having a very real possibility of European Football via the league! However one thing has been evident. The vultures are circling and looking to pick pieces off this fa...

Manchester City have had a poor season by their very high standards. The Etihad Stadium club which is used to winning everything have struggled despite their recent successes under legendary manager Pep Guardiola. However they have one trophy they can win. One final chance. One opportunity to avoid the unthinkable trophyless season which City fans have long forgot. In the way is Andoni Iraola and...

Craig and Matt are back for some more Cherry Picking as we discuss everything going on at Dean Court - or in this case around the globe during this period. We discuss how Andoni Iraola will approach this International Break and the players who are likely to need a rest whilst others venture the world. We also discuss Dean Huijsen getting his debut for the Spanish side against his Home Country of t...

Not again... AFC Bournemouth after outplaying Spurs last weekend succumbed to Brentford AGAIN. On this live show we will discuss everything regarding the defeat to the Bees with Brentford fan Steve.

What does AFC Bournemouth need to do to beat Brentford and Thomas Frank? The Bees tasted victory over the Cherries at Dean Court yesterday and Craig assesses why it keeps happening and what we need to do to stop it occurring. Frank might look like Ed Tudor-Pole from the Crystal Maze but it seems to be a mystery how to beat the London club. Do you agree? Let us know... 🍒 Questions? Email us at utc...

We have another short preview ahead of this big game against Brentford at Dean Court with Shaun from The Brentford Hive.

AFC Bournemouth this weekend welcome to Dean Court their achilles heel in the top flight. Thomas Frank is undefeated against the Cherries since that victory in the first leg of the Championship Playoff Final back during the days of Covid. Regardless of how well the Cherries are playing and how much Frank is struggling to stop a sulking Ivan Toney from derailing their season, the Bees always seem t...

AFC Bournemouth welcome Brentford this weekend and as the Bees have always been hard to beat, Craig looks at what lineup that Andoni Iraola might deploy to get our first victory in years against them. Craig also reviews our 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur from Sunday and asks where the fault lies as the Cherries shipped two late goals to miss out on 2 vital points in the push for Europe. 🍒 Que...

We also discuss Bill Foley and his redevelopment plans of Dean Court. Are Craig and Matt happy? You will find out... We also discuss A...

Tottenham Hotspur and the likeable Ange Postecoglou have had a very tough season. Languishing in the bottom half of the table, out of both cups (with defeat against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup following a win in the first leg) and behind in their Europa League game against Dutch team AZ Alkmaar with the second leg straight after the game against Cherries, any Spurs fan will probably be wishing aw...

Craig and Matt are back for some more Cherry Picking as we discuss the latest going on's at Dean Court.

We discuss Robbo's St Mirren and a new competition, TST, taking place during in Cary, USA where T...
