Thank you. Hello and welcome along to another episode of Straighthouse of Cobham, the Chelsea FC podcast from The Athletic.

This is the only place to be every week as the athletics team of blues boffins break down all the latest news from Cobham to Stamford Bridge.

On this week's show, we look back at the weekend's topsy-turvy tussle on the seaside as the first team have to settle for a point at Bournemouth.

We'll also bask in the glory of the women's team claiming the club's first piece of silverware of the season,

reflect on a Youth Cup quarterfinal unlike any other,

and catch up with our man at Cobham as the blues prepare for the first leg of a double date

with men from Merseyside.

All that, plus we meet our latest court hero

on this episode of Straight Out of Cobham.

Yes, welcome, listener. Make yourself comfortable for we're about to go on another journey

through a week of the life of Chelsea Football Club, and as you know, there's always

plenty for us to muse upon. I'm Matt Davis Adams. I'm joined by Don Feifield. Hello.

And Liam Timmy. Hello. Simon Johnson's at Cobham. As we record this on Monday lunchtime, he's waiting for Frank Lampard to give his pre-Liverpool press conference. We'll hear from Simon later, but first bucket and spade at the ready, we're off to Bournemouth. So once again, Chelsea failed to best Bournemouth. Bournemouth, drawing 2-2 at the Vitality Stadium this past Saturday,

to mean the Blues have taken just a single point from the relegation threatened cherries this season. Liam, you were at the game for the Athletic. We'll get to your piece shortly first, though. Tell us a bit about Bournemouth. What are they like sort of press facilities-wise? Did you have a nice time. I hear there was an interesting choice of lunch.
