I believe Eddie Howe took over the managerial reins at the club in January 2009 but left in 2011 to manage Burnley which he did for about a year and three quarters before returning to Bournemouth in October 2012.He had a great start winning 9 of his first 12 league games.Shortly after he returned, Bournemouth beat Dag & Red 4-0 and playing for the Daggers that day was Dwight Gayle.Howe has done brilliantly for Bournemouth and I dare say bigger clubs will be casting eyes in his direction.

Watford and Southampton have kept a relatively similar style of play so the players recruited by staff other than the manager fit. There is a focus on constant synergy. Ours is to try to not fill gaps in the squad, hope it goes okay, it doesn’t, costs us more, repeat, repeat, repeat. Only once we’re we prepared during the pre season and we stormed up to 5th before Christmas.

Parish should employ people to run football matters like Bournemouth and other successful clubs do, not put ourselves in danger and hope there are 3 shyte teams to save our &rses, as long as Wilf is available.
