Lets all jump on the Bournemouth bandwagon!

Last Ferbuary, Bournemouth were docked 10 points after going into administration. A poor run of form followed and they were seemingly dead and bured, getting ready for life in League 2.

Now, after their win today, they have won SIX in a row, and are only one point off safety with the final game coming next weekend. As Jeff Stelling put it today, it would be a greater escape than the adventures of Steve McQueen if they manage to survive.

They couldnt have a tougher match to finish though, away to 4th place Carlisle who are still going for an automatic promotion spot after falling from second place this morning.

And just to sweeten the deal, the team one point ahead of Bournemouth (Cheltenham) are home to 2nd place Doncaster who are also going for promotion!

Because of Bournemouths far better GD, they need to better Cheltenhams result and they've survived. Fingers crossed I say!

Yeah I'll hop on that bandwagon. They've done great to stay in with a shout when most wrote them off.

Wait.. there's other leagues in Engerland??? :eek:

Joking aside, great run. Between that, the championship and the premier there's some pretty decent relegations battles going on.
