Hello and welcome to the TIFO football podcast. I'm Joe Devine and I'm joined now by

Seb Stafford Bloor. Hello Joe. Seb and I were joined today by Peter Rutzler who is the correspondent

0:14.1

for the Athletic for AFC Bournemouth. This episode is entitled What's Going on at Bournemouth?

0:19.4

And it really is that in bullet

0:22.5

point form please Seb let me know what we spoke about so I break down into quite neat

0:27.8

sections we did a little bit on finance and the financial implications of relegation we covered

0:35.2

the Ryan Fraser saga.

0:42.9

We did a bit on the new training ground, the club of building, which they've had to pause with during the coronavirus.

0:51.3

We touched on Eddie Howe, Jermaine Defoe, and we talked about sort of the team in general and why they're in the position they find themselves in.

0:52.2

Yeah, yeah.

0:54.9

Halfway through this episode, Alex Stewart joins to give us a little bit of tactical breakdown, tactical insight from the mind of his into AFC Bournemouth. And then we continue into the second half. And as Seb says, we talk about injuries. Well, there's also Jordan Ai, you've been there. A lot of stuff about Eddie Howe towards the end. I found this one fascinating.

although, you know, fairly,

1:43.8

there is a bit of doom, and there is some gloom.

1:46.8

Anyway, speak say it's not it's not all just doom and gloom although you know fairly there is a bit of doom

2:01.8

and there is some gloom anyway speaking of doom and gloom you won't find that at the athletic
