AFC Bournemouth ( ) is a professional association football club based in Kings Park, Boscombe, a suburb of Bournemouth, Dorset, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the highest division of English club football. Formed in 1899 as Boscombe, the club adopted their current name in 1971. Nicknamed “The Cherries”, Bournemouth have played their home games at Dean Court since 1910. Their home colours are red and black striped shirts, with black shorts and socks, inspired by that of Italian club A.C. Milan.
The club competed in regional football leagues before going up from the Hampshire League to the Southern League in 1920.

This was achieved with a second-place finish in League Two in 2009 – 10, a second-place finish in League One in 2012 – 13 và a Championship tiêu đề in năm trước – 15. The club remained in the Premier League for five seasons before suffering relegation in 2020, but they returned in 2022 as Championship runners-up, this giây phút under the management of Scott Parker .
History[edit]
Boscombe[edit]
Although the exact date of the club’s foundation is not known, there is proof that it was formed in the autumn of 1899 out of the remains of the older Boscombe St. John’s Institute Football Club. [ 9 ] The club was originally known as Boscombe Football Club. The first president was Mr. J. C. Nutt. [ 10 ]In their first season, 1899 – 1900, Boscombe competed in the Bournemouth và District Junior League. They also played in the Hants Junior Cup. During the first two seasons, they played on a football pitch in Castlemain Avenue, Pokesdown. From their third season, the nhóm played on a pitch in King’s Park. In the 1905 – 06 season, Boscombe graduated béo senior amateur football. [ 11 ]In 1910, the club was granted a long lease kết thúc some wasteland next mập Kings Park as the club’s football ground by local businessman J.E. Cooper-Dean. With their own ground, named Dean Court after the benefactor, the club continued béo thrive và dominated the local football scene. The same year the club signed its first professional player Baven Penton. [ 12 ]
Around about this time, the club obtained their nickname “The Cherries”. There are two leading explanations of how the club gained the nickname: from the cherry-red striped shirts that the team played in, and, perhaps less plausible, because Dean Court was built adjacent to the Cooper-Dean estate, which, it is believed, may have contained many cherry trees.[citation needed]
For the first time, during the 1913–14 season, the club competed in the FA Cup. The club’s progress, however, was halted in 1914 with the outbreak of World War I, and Boscombe returned to the Hampshire League.[citation needed]
In 1920, the Third Division of the Football League was formed, and Boscombe were promoted to the Southern League, finding moderate success.[citation needed]
Bournemouth và Boscombe Athletic[edit]
To make the club more representative of the district, the name was changed to Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic Football Club in 1923. During the same year, the club was elected to the newly expanded Third Division South. The first league match was at Swindon Town on 25 August 1923, which Bournemouth lost 3–1. The first league game at Dean Court was also against Swindon, where Bournemouth gained their first league point after a 0–0 draw.[citation needed]
Initially, Bournemouth struggled in the Football League but eventually established themselves as a Third Division club. Bournemouth remains on the records as the longest continuous members of the Third Division.[citation needed]
As a league club, Bournemouth had to wait until after the Second World War before winning their first trophy. This was accomplished as they beat Walsall in the Third Division (South) Cup in the final at Stamford Bridge.[citation needed]
AFC Bournemouth[edit]
The club adopted the AFC Bournemouth name in 1971, [ 13 ] with the intention that the club would appear first in alphabetical lists of English clubs. [ 14 ] A year later, the club adopted a hot nhất badge as a symbol of the club’s progress. [ 15 ] The stripes in the background were based on the club shirt, while in the foreground is the profile of a player heading the ball, in honour of Dickie Dowsett, a prolific scorer for the club in the 1950 s & 1960 s. [ 16 ]Their red & Black kit, introduced in 1971, was based on the A.C. Milan strip. [ 17 ] This was the era of Ted MacDougall, a prolific goalscorer who, in an FA Cup tie in November 1971, scored nine goals in an 11 – 0 chiến hạ against Margate. [ 18 ]
Late trăng tròn th century[edit]
Chart of yearly table positions of Bournemouth in the League .Bournemouth recorded a famous victory end holders Manchester United in the FA Cup in January 1984, while they were managed by Harry Redknapp. [ 19 ] [ trăng tròn ] The club won its second piece of silverware by winning the Associate Members ‘ Cup in its inaugural season, beating Hull City 2 – một at Boothferry Park on 24 May 1984 in the final. [ 21 ]
Redknapp took Bournemouth into the second tier of the English league for the first time in their history as Third Division champions in 1987. After comfortably surviving in their first season in the Second Division, Bournemouth made a serious challenge for promotion to the top flight in the 1988–89 season; they ultimately fell away after a poor run late in the season, but their eventual finish of 12th place remained their highest-ever in the Football League until the 2013–14 season.[citation needed]
On 5 May 1990, the final day of the 1989–90 season, Leeds United had the chance to win the Second Division and gain promotion into the First Division by beating Bournemouth at Dean Court. Some United fans had already caused trouble in the town during the morning and the atmosphere was tense as Leeds won the match by a single goal. Combined with the results of other matches, this meant that Leeds were promoted while Bournemouth were relegated. The violence and destruction by visitors to Bournemouth continued over the holiday weekend, causing more than £1 million worth of damage and injury to opposing fans and police officers.[22] The town’s Daily Echo newspaper reported that “spectators, including many young children, had to run to safety as missiles were hurled and riot police waded in to control the crowds.”[22] The matter was raised in Parliament by one of the town’s MPs. Financially, the Leeds trouble affected the club for more than a decade, as Bournemouth were prevented by local police from staging home games on Bank Holidays (traditionally a popular day for football) until a game against Shrewsbury Town on 21 April 2003.[citation needed]
Redknapp remained at the club for two more seasons, both of which ended with the club falling three points short of the play-offs. However, mounting financial pressures caused him to resign his position at the end of the 1991–92 season, and he subsequently rejoined former club West Ham United as a coach. He was replaced by Tony Pulis, who built a much cheaper squad that could only manage two consecutive 17th-place finishes before Pulis walked out of the club, blaming financial pressures.[citation needed]
Bournemouth went the first few months of the 1994–95 season without a permanent manager in place, and a dreadful start saw them bottom of the table for much of the first half of the season. Despite a minor upturn in form when Mel Machin was appointed as manager, they looked highly unlikely to survive, given that there were five relegation spots in Division Two for that season due to league reconstruction. However, a late run of form combined with collapses by relegation rivals Cambridge United and Plymouth Argyle saw them survive on the last day of the season by two points.[citation needed]
Machin ultimately remained in charge for six years, most of which were marked by unremarkable mid-table finishes. The 1998–99 season proved to be arguably the highlight of his tenure, with the club making a serious playoff challenge for most of the season, but ultimately falling short and finishing seventh. However, a drop to 16th place in the 1999–2000 season followed by a poor start to the following season saw Machin removed from his position and given the role of director of football.[citation needed]
Early 21 st century[edit]
Sean O’Driscoll was promoted from the coaching staff in place of Mel Machin at the start of the 2000–01 season. In O’Driscoll’s first season as manager, Bournemouth narrowly missed out on the Division Two playoffs but were relegated a year later in the new stadium (in the early part of the 2001–02 season, they played their home matches at Dorchester Town’s ground while their own stadium was being redeveloped). The board kept faith in O’Driscoll and they were rewarded with promotion via the Division Three playoffs in 2002–03. The club became the first to score five goals at the Millennium Stadium when they beat Lincoln City 5–2 in the 2002–03 Division Three play-off final with goals from Steve Fletcher, Carl Fletcher (2), Stephen Purches and Garreth O’Connor. Under O’Driscoll, Bournemouth narrowly missed out on the play-offs for the 2003–04 and 2004–05 seasons, and just avoided relegation in the 2005–06 season.[citation needed]
Long-serving player James Hayter scored the fastest league hat-trick in English Football League history during the 2003–04 season. The Cherries were leading 3–0 against Wrexham thanks to goals from Stephen Purches, Warren Cummings and Warren Feeney when Hayter was brought onto the field as a substitute. With 86 minutes gone, Hayter managed to net three goals in the space of two minutes and 17 seconds, making the final score 6–0 to Bournemouth.[citation needed]
In September 2006, with the team in eighth in the League, Sean O’Driscoll left to become manager of Doncaster Rovers. He was replaced by Kevin Bond.[citation needed]
Decline & administration ( 2008 – 2009 )[edit]
In February 2008, Bournemouth were forced into administration, suffering a ten-point deduction which put them in relegation trouble. Bournemouth had debts of around £4 million and almost went out of business completely.[23] The off-field uncertainty continued throughout the season, with only one, ultimately unsuccessful, bid for the club accepted,[24] and the club ended the season being relegated to League Two.[citation needed]
Ahead of the 2008 – 09 season, the team’s future in the Football League was put into doubt when the league threatened Khủng block Bournemouth’s participation in League Two, due lớn problems with the club’s continuing administration và change in ownership. The league ordered both Bournemouth và Rotherham United mập demonstrate that they could fulfil all of their fixtures & find a way out of administration, [ 25 ] eventually allowing the club béo compete with a 17 – point penalty for failing lớn follow the Football League insolvency rules. The hot nhất company was also ordered lớn pay unsecured creditors the amount offered at the giây phút of the original CVA ( around ten pence in the pound ) within two years. [ 26 ]Early into the season, manager Bond was sacked & was replaced by former player Jimmy Quinn, who would himself leave the club only a few months later. [ 27 ] Former player Eddie Howe took end as manager with the club still ten points adrift at the bottom of the league và initially on a caretaker basis, becoming the youngest manager in the Football League at the age of 31. [ 28 ]At the kết thúc of 2008, it was announced that local businessman Adam Murry had completed the purchase of 50 % of the club’s shares from previous chairman, Paul Baker. However, in January 2009, Murry missed the deadline bự buy Baker’s shares. [ 29 ]
In the final home game of the 2008–09 season, the Cherries guaranteed their Football League status by beating Grimsby Town 2–1 with a winning goal ten minutes from time by Bournemouth’s Steve Fletcher, sparking wild celebrations after a fairytale ending to “The Great Escape.” They finished their troubled season with their best away win in 30 years with a 4–0 victory at Morecambe.[citation needed]
In June 2009, a consortium including Adam Murry finally took over Bournemouth. The consortium included Jeff Mostyn, former vice-chairman Steve Sly, Neill Blake and former Dorchester Town chairman Eddie Mitchell.[citation needed]
Rise lớn the Premier League ( 2009 – 2015 )[edit]
Howe’s first full season in charge brought success as Bournemouth finished second in League Two to earn promotion with two games to spare. Howe subsequently left the club for Burnley during the following season; his successor, another former Bournemouth player, Lee Bradbury, led Bournemouth to the League One play-offs. The two-legged semi-final against Huddersfield Town finished 3–3 after extra time, and Huddersfield went through the final by winning the penalty shoot-out 4–2. Bradbury was unable to lead Bournemouth to another promotion challenge in the 2011–12 Football League One, placing 11th after a season of indifferent results, and was replaced by youth team coach Paul Groves for the final games of the season.[citation needed]
Groves remained in charge at the start of the 2012–13 season, only to be sacked in October 2012 following a start which left the club near the bottom of the table. Eddie Howe returned as manager, and not only did he pull the club away from their early-season relegation battle, they achieved promotion to the Championship, returning to the second-tier of English football for the first time since 1990. The club also revealed a new club crest.[30] After a promising start to life in the Championship, the club was handed a fourth Round FA Cup tie with Premier League club Liverpool which ended in a 2–0 loss. Bournemouth finished their first season back in the Championship in tenth place, their highest ever position in the Football League.[citation needed]
On 25 October năm trước, Bournemouth won 8 – 0 away at St. Andrew’s against Birmingham City. It was the first phút giây that the Cherries had ever scored eight goals in a league game và their largest winning margin in the league ( not counting a 10 – 0 chiến hạ end Northampton Town in September 1939, which was discounted after the league was abandoned due béo the Second World War ). [ 31 ] The club followed up this success with a 2 – một victory kết thúc Premier League side West Bromwich Albion in the League Cup, reaching the quarter-finals of the competition for the first thời gian. Bournemouth were again drawn against Liverpool but lost tam – 1. The club spent most of the năm trước – 15 season near the top of the table, and a 3 – 0 thắng away at Charlton Athletic on the final day of the season was enough phệ clinch the Championship tiêu đề và a first-ever promotion mập the top flight of English football. [ 32 ]
Premier League era ( 2015 – 2020 )[edit]
In Bournemouth’s first season in the Premier League, the nhóm was beset by a number of crippling injuries, including phệ Callum Wilson, star striker from the previous season. The đội struggled for most of the first half of the season but an upturn in size during the second half of the season saw a reversal of fortunes. Bournemouth eventually finished 16 th in the league, avoiding relegation. [ 33 ]
The club was widely tipped to suffer second season syndrome, but the 2016–17 season was largely successful. Despite a weak start, which saw them in the relegation zone for the first three weeks, the team quickly recovered and went on to finish 9th.[34] Star loan player Nathan Aké was signed permanently from Chelsea for a club-record fee in June 2017, reportedly in the region of £20 million.[35] Despite another slow start in 2017–18, a run of good form through late December and January saw them steer clear of the relegation zone, and earn Howe his second Premier League Manager of the Month award.[36] Bournemouth went on to gain 19 points from losing positions in the second half of the season – a Premier League record – helping the team finish in 12th place.[37][non-primary source needed][38]
The 2018 – 19 season saw the club break their transfer record again on Jefferson Lerma during the summer, [ 39 ] [ 40 ] & contrasting with the previous season, the club had a strong start, sitting in 6 th place after the first 12 games. However, their size regressed for the remainder of the season due mập many injury problems. In the kết thúc, Bournemouth finished in 14 th place, securing a 5 th season in the Premier League .A bright start lớn the 2019 – trăng tròn season saw the nhóm sitting in 7 th place at the beginning of November. [ 41 ] However, continuing injury problems và a poor run of results followed, & the club dropped into the relegation zone in January. Poor performances continued after the COVID-19 pandemic had interrupted the season, with key losses lớn Manchester City & Southampton putting the club on the brink. [ 42 ] Despite a tam – một victory kết thúc Everton away at Goodison Park on the final day, the club’s relegation was confirmed due béo results elsewhere. [ 43 ] On một August 2020, Howe left the club by mutual consent, ending his tám – year second spell as manager. [ 44 ]
