Milton Graham and Ian Thompson – Racism in the 80’s

Milton Graham and Ian Thompson – Racism in the 80’s

AFC Bournemouth have had some momentous occasions in most of the decades that we’ve been a professional club. This decade it was promotion to the PL, in the naughties – the play-offs and Minus 17, in the 90’s Wembley… but what of the 80’s?

Towards the end of this decade there was the famous promotion under Harry Redknapp, however, before that came an afternoon that many a Cherry will never forget, and this was the 2-0 FA Cup Third Round demolition of Man Utd at Dean Court.

The goal-scorers that day will be remembered for years to come, and today, we’re absolutely delighted to be joined by them – the one and only Milton Graham and Ian Thompson!  Stories include:

• Falling through an offy window in Jersey.
• Ending up in a cell.
• Racism in the 80’s.
• The MUFC match build-up and reaction.
• Playing under Harry.
