John Williams and Paul Morrell – Topless And Truthful

An hour long chat with two ex-AFC Bournemouth stalwarts who played a massive part in our success in the eighties - John "Willo" Williams, and Paul "Mozzy" Morrell. Firstly, Paul Morrell - one of Bournemouth’s best left-backs in the history of the club - a player who donned the Cherries shirt for 10 years, notching nearly 350 appearances for us. As well as numerous solid performances and a Harry Redknapp inspired promotion season, one of his key moments for AFCB was scoring the winning goal in the first Football League Trophy Final, then known as the Associate Members' Cup, when Bournemouth beat Hull City 2–1 at Boothferry Park on 24 May 1984. With him is John Williams (or Willo to you and me), the player turned assistant manager who played 117 games for the Cherries. Described by Harry Redknapp as being "possibly the best signing he had made" in his 25-year management career, he ALSO helped the Cherries win the Third Division championship in 1986–87 with 97 points, and now he, of course, acts as the current BBC Radio Solent summariser alongside Kris Temple.
