Debunking the myths, live at 11am:
It has today been reported that former chairman Eddie Mitchell has passed away.
He was AFC Bournemouth chairman between 2009-2013, in what was an action-packed time for
#afcb
on and off the pitch.
He played a key role in the club's rise up the leagues.
Rest in peace Eddie.
On Saturday, on 14 minutes, AFC Bournemouth supporters are invited to join Arsenal fans in an applause to pay tribute to Daniel Anjorin - a young Gooner, who sadly lost his life in the recent Hainault sword attack.

Legend is a word that isn’t wholesome enough to describe John Garard.
Nonny was gentle, kind, caring, and was capable of raising a smile just by his presence alone.
Some of you will have known him in a capacity more than football, and all I can say is, you lucky lucky people.
If you’re going to get interrupted in a post-match fan reaction, it might as well be from the very best…

Absolute disgrace. I guess you’re looking for someone to take Bournemouth to the next level? There isn’t a ‘next level’ This is it. There is no more. I remember Charlton wanting to do the same. How did that work out?
Al was a legend, we met him many times.
His opinions were strong, his dry humour was always first class, and his scoops on
#afcb
never went unnoticed within the fanbase.
More importantly, he was a true gentleman.
Condolences to his friends, family and all that knew him.
🍒❤️
Hi all, this is Tony Gard, Al's brother. I want to let everyone know that Al died peacefully today at 15.45 in France. His closest family was at his side.
He will be sorely missed by everyone who had the pleasure knowing him.
We want to wish a very Merry Christmas to AFC Bournemouth fans, including all our followers, subscribers, and channel supporters!
Up the Cherries, and see you at Dean Court tomorrow!

We’re looking forward to hearing more of Nonny during the season.
As a fanbase, we need to raise the decibel level like Nonny would have, to help get the team over the line this season, as he would have wanted.

Thanks Woody. You remained very dignified throughout your bizarre appointment process, and you’ve been exemplary throughout your short tenure at

By the way, his thoughts on

If he says it, it's happening! ❤️
Whilst we had games that *some*

It's sad we didn't have the chance to say goodbye to some incredible servants.
Despite the risk not working, Jason is still one of them.

Max Aarons to Bournemouth, here we go! Leeds deal has been hijacked with last minute £7m plus add-ons bid, now accepted by Norwich 🚨🔴🍒

Bournemouth left Maehle deal to focus on Aarons hijack, now completed.
English fullback already on his way to medical tests.
Turns out they were watching a stream of Bournemouth vs Benfica that some kid had recorded from FIFA16. 🙈
The mad thing is they enjoyed it so much, they kept it going and watched the second half.
Bournemouth won 3-1 by the way. 🍒😄👍

Bournemouth have snatched up a highly regarded & in-demand coach in Andoni Iraola.
Yes, it comes at the expense of Gary O’Neil who “earned the right”, but as

All the squad members were down the beach this morning at Boscombe Pier for a team-building bike ride - morale seemingly good amongst the lads considering recent departures and a horrendously early morning start. 😀
