Insightful analysis, good humour and important for the AFCB community
Great podcast, well worth the listen and you’ve gotta love the boys. Up the chez!!
If you’re looking for a high quality supporter produced podcast about AFC Bournemouth then this is for you. The boys are locals who put significant personal time and resources into attending the Cherrie’s matches and reporting on them. Specifically if you are not local to the club and watch from afar then you will enjoy the personal enthusiasm and historical knowledge that Sam, Tom, Tiggs and others bring to Cherrie’s fandom.
This is the worst podcast I’ve ever listened to the hosts have very limited football knowledge and love making little digs at other clubs but struggle to take it when given back the one who dresses like a teenager is not a good look especially smoking non stop and getting drunk and very spicy
Pleased to see BOTN on my podcast app, the team put out the best AFC Bournemouth content out there. Always very fair to opposition teams so worth a listen even if you’re not an AFCB fan.

The show focuses on AFC Bournemouth with a strong emphasis on pre-season activity, transfer strategy, and the club's broader European ambitions. Episodes feature on-the-ground reporting from local journalists, tactical analysis of the squad and manager's approach, plus behind-the-scenes updates on stadium work, ownership plans, and youth integration. A notable strength is the blend of fan banter, in-depth football discussion, and insight from journalists and club-connected guests, which helps listeners understand both the on-pitch narrative and the off-pitch developments shaping the club's direction.
