Bournemouth won the Championship in style this month, with the most dramatic final day in the club’s history. The club that six years ago was going to go out of business has been promoted to the Premier League. The billionaire playground will have a newcomer to the table. Eddie Howe has pulled off the impossible with an outstanding effort by the young manager and his players. The team has played some of the best football ever seen in the Championship and they will go into the premiership in style. This is a review of that remarkable season.

During the summer of 2014, players such as Callum Wilson arrived from cash stricken Coventry City. Dan Gosling came from Newcastle and Matt Ritchie from Swindon Town.

August

The Cherries started their season in style with a 4-0 thrashing of Huddersfield Town away at Huddersfield. This was followed up by a successful 2-0 win away to Exeter City in the Capital one cup. Wins against Brentford and Northampton also in the Capital one cup were positive results in the first month of the season. There were two defeats though, those were against Blackburn away and Nottingham Forest at home. However, Eddie Howe would have been extremely happy at the end of the August period.

September

September looked like a tough month for the club, a disappointing draw against Rotherham and a loss to Leeds United meant that the club needed to improve these types of results. They needed to be stronger in games. A great draw to Watford followed, two wins came next, firstly Cardiff City a 3-0 away win and then a home success against Wigan. A tight clash at the Ipro stadium took part at the end of the month with a 2-0 loss to Derby County.

October

Undoubtedly Bournemouth’s best month for points, as they won every single game. A 2-1 win against Bolton was made even more impressive as the cherries were down to 10 men. Callum Willson scored a brace to secure the points. There were impressive wins against Charlton and Reading. Birmingham City then felt the full force from the South Coast club as a comfortable 8-0 win was performed. Matt Ritchie, Callum Wilson and Yann Kermongant were all instrumental throughout the season. A win was also recorded against West Brom in the league cup. This result proved Bournemouth were a serious side and not one to take lightly.

November

The unbeaten run carried on with wins against Brighton and Sheffield Wednesday. Three draws were also played out in this month, a 0-0 draw with an inform Middlesbrough, a 2-2 draw with Ipswich and a disappointing but well-earned point at home to Millwall.

December

Things were looking extremely good for the club at this point, with pundits and fans alike commenting on how good the style of football was. The team only lost one game during December a 3-1 loss in the league cup to Liverpool. Other noticeable results were an enthralling win against Cardiff 5-3 at home. A drubbing of Blackpool 6-1 at Bloomfield Road and an impressive performance away at Millwall which they won 2-0.

January

By this stage everyone was singing Bournemouth’s praises. With teams sniffing around the cherries top talent the club had to be vigilant. They themselves put a sneaky bid in for Demarai Gray of Birmingham City offering £5m. This never came off, however it showed the clubs intent to do well.

As far as points went the team won three and lost three, two of the wins came against a struggling Rotherham United. A 5-1 thrashing of the Millers was produced in the FA Cup at the New York Stadium, 2 games later they travelled to the New York once again and beat Rotherham 2-0 in the league. A win against Watford at home was also recorded. Defeats came as Norwich, Leeds and Aston Villa in the FA Cup all beat the cherries in close games.

Bettors were able to make great profit backing Bournemouth this month, particularly those who used the Martingale system.

February

Only one win was produced in February and that was to Wigan Athletic 3-1 away. Draws were prominent in this month with one point gained against Derby, Huddersfield and Blackburn Rovers. Disappointing defeats included a 1-0 loss to Brentford and a 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forrest, both being at home.

March

Back to winning ways though in march with positive results against Wolves, Fulham, Blackpool and Middlesbrough. Bournemouth also drew to Cardiff in this month. There were some big results in this month with 15 goals scored and only three conceded. A fantastic month for the team. People were starting to mention Bournemouth as possible champions. This surely was unthinkable for a club like Bournemouth to win the Championship. However the run carried on and people were beginning to be astounded by how well this team was doing.

April

The month that mattered, with the club involved at the top of the table it was turning out to be the best Championship ever. With at least six teams in the hunt for automatic promotion it was time that the team turned on the style and finished what they had started. Another month full of three points went with important wins against, Reading, Brighton and Birmingham. Draws against promotion rivals Ipswich, and also Sheffield Wednesday. Then on Monday 27th April 2015 a date no Bournemouth fan will ever forget the magical dream of Premier League football became a reality, as a 3-0 win against Bolton realistically meant they were promoted. Although not mathematically, it would take closest rivals Middlesbrough a ridiculous last day result to catch them, with what seemed like promotion in the bag the celebrations started. However Howe wanted the league trophy too, although he didn’t hint that on the night verse Bolton, you could tell in his eye’s that he wanted the league.

May

After securing promotion against Bolton, it was mathematically secured with a last day win away at Charlton, this win also meant they clinched the title.

Eddie Howe the most successful and revered manager in Bournemouth’s history had done the impossible, he had got a mediocre club into the biggest league in the world.

Football is the only sport in the world where a club that has been in the doldrums for so long can suddenly be on the brink of greatness and achieve success. Eddie Howe has made Bournemouth hearts sore with his team of professional well-drilled team. A superb effort, for every bad moment in football there is a good one. Due to Bournemouth’s fight and struggle six years ago they have now achieved something amazing, this will give every club heart that they can do the same.

Looking into the future, Howe must surly realize that the football they played in the Championship must be kept and he must improve this style of play further and go into the Premier League.
