About A.F.C. Bournemouth
Bournemouth, on the South Coast of England, has been famed since Victorian times as a seaside resort, one which was transformed from a sleepy village by the arrival of the railway. It has been renowned for its long stretch of sandy beach and for a wealth of hotel accommodation but never until recently as a hotbed of Premier League football.
It all changed In 2008, when the club was playing in League Two, under administration, with many doubts it would survive the season due to financial uncertainty. After a turbulent opening of the season, in which few managers came and went, AFC Bournemouth appointed former player Eddie Howe as manager. By the end of the season, Bournemouth was able to escape falling into non-league football and secured another season in League Two.
By the end of next season, Bournemouth secured promotion to League One. How left for Burnley, came back in the middle of next season, and again, not only helped Bournemouth escape relegation, but got the club promoted to the Championship. After the 2014-15 season, Bournemouth secured a historic promotion to the Premier League.
The history of the club was one of struggle, on and off the field. Starting off at the end of the 19th century playing in a junior league as Boscombe FC (Boscombe being the resort which nestles on the eastern edge of the town) and only graduating to senior status as an amateur side in 1905. Presented with a long lease on wasteland to transform into a football ground in Dean Park, Bournemouth, the team acquired the nickname of the Cherries because of the colour of their football shirts – although some suggest that the name was due to cherry trees in the estate near the ground. Although the team competed in the FA Cup in 1913, it was not until ten years later that the renamed Bournemouth and Boscombe joined the Third Division of the Football League. They remained in that division for an unbroken period of 64 years.
In 1972 the name was changed to the current more streamlined AFC Bournemouth and in 1987 the club at last escaped the clutches of the Third Division and reached the Second Division (equivalent to today’s Championship). The following year they reached 12th place – the highest final slot they were to occupy until – following nearly three decades of declining fortunes and extreme financial pressures – the Club hit the big time.
AFC Bournemouth play its home matches in by far the smallest stadium in the Premier League, 11,307-seat Vitality Stadium.
Bournemouth has always been a delightful place to visit and now the discerning football follower should be heading south as well.
