Anyone who can help on the bohr model

I was just reading one of the problems with the bohr atom is
"more lines than predicted - fine structure"
This was in my lecture notes and im not quite sure what it means by this

The Bohr model has the electrons in strictly defined and delimited energy levels. This should give lines on the emission spectrum corresponding to transitions between these levels only. There are, however, more lines than you would expect from this simple model...
