Match3 Nov 2026
Bournemouth through in the cup
A 2‑0 win over Barnsley, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Rayan says Bournemouth went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

A brace, and Alex Scott takes the afternoon — 8.22
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Alex Scott provided it, and the 8.22 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Eli Junior Kroupi, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 8.37
A mark of 8.37 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Christos Mandas stands alone
6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.
Market9 Nov 2026
Amine Adli wants to know where this is going
“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Bournemouth hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Marcus Tavernier is free to find somewhere else
“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Bournemouth has been clear about where Marcus Tavernier stands, which is more than many ever get.
Match7 Nov 2026
Alex Scott the difference as Bournemouth beat Leeds United
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Alex Scott. 2‑1 against Leeds United, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

One of their own: Lamine Cissé
He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
