Back of the Net is now writing Cherries content for Roundtable Sports Network
The rise of fan-led media has taken another step forward, and Back of the Net is pleased to announce we are going to be a part of a brand new sports network which aims to bring Cherries fans more written word pieces from the perspective of AFC Bournemouth supporters .
At its core, Roundtable is not just another sports website – it’s part of a much wider digital media ecosystem built on community, creator-led content, and emerging Web3 technology.
The network was created by more than 100 former Sports Illustrated reporters, providing coverage for every North American team and comprehensive reporting on European powerhouse clubs such as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Now venturing into the Premier League, Back of the Net is delighted to have been selected as the creators for its AFC Bournemouth fan-site, with daily articles – featuring news, opinion, and Cherries updates.
The platform operates as a decentralised media network, combining publishing, social interaction, and monetisation tools into one space. It is designed to give creators more control over their work, while also fostering direct engagement with fans.
Rather than generic match reports or recycled news, the Bournemouth section is built around personality-driven content — the kind of tone and perspective fans will already recognise from our existing YouTube and podcast platforms.
Cherries supporters can expect:
Opinion-led articles
The content leans heavily into analysis, debate, and perspective, rather than straight reporting. Expect takes on performances, tactics, and decision-making across the club.
Narrative-driven storytelling
There is a clear emphasis on context and long-form discussion — articles that explore why things are happening at Bournemouth, not just what has happened.
Fan-centric angles
Unlike mainstream media, the writing speaks directly to supporters, reflecting the mood around the club — whether that’s optimism, frustration, or uncertainty.
Regular, reactive content
Much like a YouTube channel, the output is designed to be frequent and responsive, reacting quickly to results, transfer rumours, and key developments.
The sports arm of the platform, often referred to as Roundtable Sports, has been built with significant backing and ambition, and we are so pleased to be a big part of it, as it signals a broader shift in football media, where fans are becoming content creators, creators are becoming journalists, and platforms like Roundtable are bringing it all together
To join us, get involved please sign up and follow us on the platform, we’d love to see you over there!
Established in 2016, Back of the Net is the leading AFC Bournemouth podcast & YouTube channel, with match vlogs, features & regular chats with Cherries heroes.
