Up The Cherries In All Departments - AFC Bournemouth Fans Podcast

After narrowly missing out on promotion last season, AFC Bournemouth Women are back with renewed ambition—and it's been a busy summer on and off the pitch.

Craig and Sion take an in-depth look at the Cherries' preparations for the new campaign, discussing the arrivals of Ella Stowell, Tilly Wilkes, Issy Watts and Kyra Robertson, and what each could bring to the squad as Bournemouth aim to go one better this season.

The pair also debate the decision for the women's team to play their home matches at Weymouth's Bob Lucas Stadium. Will the move help the club grow, or could it make it harder for loyal supporters to attend and impact the fantastic fanbase that's been built?

⚽ In this episode:

• Can AFC Bournemouth Women finally secure promotion?

• Breaking down the summer signings

• What Ella Stowell, Tilly Wilkes, Issy Watts & Kyra Robertson add to the squad

• The pros and cons of playing at Weymouth's Bob Lucas Stadium

• Why the women's team is so important to AFC Bournemouth's future

Get ready for another AFC Bournemouth kit review as Craig and Matt take a closer look at the 2026/27 Away Shirt!

In this episode, we break down every detail of the new away kit, from the overall design and colour scheme to whether the sponsor completely ruins the look... or if it somehow works. Is it a stylish modern classic, or has the sponsor become a total eyesore?

We also take a look at the 2026/27 Away Goalkeeper Kit, giving our thoughts on whether it's a hidden gem or one best left in the dressing room.

And because we couldn't ignore it... does the away shirt remind anyone else of Tinky Winky from the Teletubbies? 😂 We compare the colours and decide whether Bournemouth have accidentally channelled everyone's favourite purple TV character!

Let us know your thoughts in the comments:

🔴 What rating would you give the 2026/27 AFC Bournemouth away shirt?

🟣 Is the sponsor an eyesore or does it fit the design?

🧤 Which do you prefer: the away shirt or the goalkeeper kit?

😂 Can you unsee the Tinky Winky comparison?

Does Football have a problem? Each week we will discuss the biggest issues and pressing points impacting the Beautiful Game in a new series starring Craig Beazley and Mani Thangadurai.

Has football lost its soul?

In this explosive discussion, Craig and Mani ask whether the biggest problem facing the world's game isn't VAR, fixture congestion or billionaire owners... but FIFA itself.

From Gianni Infantino's growing influence over world football to his increasingly visible relationship with Donald Trump, we examine why many fans, journalists and football figures believe FIFA is becoming more concerned with power, politics and profit than protecting the sport.

We discuss:

⚽ Gianni Infantino's leadership of FIFA

⚽ FIFA's ever-expanding tournaments and commercial ambitions

⚽ Why critics accuse FIFA of greed and hypocrisy

⚽ The long shadow of corruption allegations that have damaged FIFA's reputation over many years

⚽ The political optics surrounding Infantino's relationship with Donald Trump

⚽ Why UEFA has publicly warned about fixture congestion and the growing international calendar

⚽ Whether football is becoming a business first and a sport second

⚽ Why supporters—not governing bodies—remain the true custodians of the game

Football belongs to the fans. It was built by communities, sustained by supporters and made great by the people in the stands—not by executives chasing ever-larger revenues. As more competitions are added and more money is extracted from clubs, broadcasters and supporters, many are asking one simple question:

Who is football really for anymore?

Craig and Mani debate whether meaningful change can only happen if clubs, players, confederations and supporters push back against FIFA's increasing control over the global game.

Do you think FIFA is taking football in the right direction, or has the balance between sporting integrity and commercial ambition been lost?

England's World Cup dream is over after surrendering a 1-0 lead against Argentina in the semi-final, and there are serious questions to answer.

In this video, Craig gives his reaction from an England perspective as we discuss whether Thomas Tuchel's tactical decisions ultimately cost England a place in the World Cup Final and what the result could mean for his future as England manager.

We also examine the controversy surrounding Argentina's unveiling of a flag referencing the Falkland Islands, why many have criticised it as unnecessary and disrespectful, and why some believe it showed a lack of respect not only towards England but also towards the Argentine people, who deserved to see the focus remain on football.

Despite England's heartbreak, we're wishing Spain the very best of luck in the World Cup Final.

¡Vamos, España! (Let's Go, Spain!) 🇪🇸

What do you think?

Did Tuchel get his tactics wrong?

Should Tuchel remain England manager?

What did you make of the Falklands flag controversy?

Who are you backing in the World Cup Final?
