Premier League final day acca: Man City glory, Man Utd despair, Chelsea growing, Klopp farewell
The final day of the Premier League season is upon us as Arsenal and Man City battle it out for the title.
AFC Bournemouth are an English football club currently playing in the Premier League.
In the same year, Bournemouth also introduced their iconic red and black kit, which drew inspiration from AC Milan.
In 1983, former Bournemouth player Harry Redknapp took over as manager of the club. In January 1984, they picked up a famous victory in the FA Cup over holders Manchester United.
Sean O'Driscoll was appointed as Bournemouth's manager in the 2000/01 season and oversaw an impressive campaign, narrowly missing out on the Division Two play-offs. However, the following season, Bournemouth were relegated.
In February 2008, Bournemouth were forced into administration and suffered a 10-point deduction as a result. Their debts of £4million threatened to put the club out of business and they were ultimately relegated to League Two.
During the 2008/09 season, former player Eddie Howe took over as manager with the club 10 points adrift at the bottom of League Two following a 17-point deduction. He was able to bridge the 10-point deficit to the other clubs and subsequently secure Bournemouth's survival in the Football League.
In his first full season, Howe guided Bournemouth to second in League Two and won promotion to League One in 2010. He subsequently left for Burnley.
However, Howe returned to Bournemouth in October 2012 with the club embroiled in a relegation battle and won them promotion to the Championship at the end of the 2012/13 season.
Bournemouth continued to improve in the Premier League finishing ninth in 2016/17 the Premier League, then 12th and 14th in the two subsequent campaigns.
But their luck ran out at the end of the Covid-19 hit 2019/20 season. Despite a 3–1 victory over Everton on the final day of the season results elsewhere left Bournemouth in 18th place and their fifth consecutive season in the top flight ended in relegation.
On August 1, 2020, Bournemouth announced that Howe had left the club by mutual consent. He was replaced by his longtime assistant Jason Tindall but he only lasted until February 2021 with the club slipping out of the promotion race.
But Parker's reign was short-lived, just four games into the new Premier League season he was sacked after a joint record-breaking 9-0 thumping by Liverpool.
Dean Court, known as the Vitality Stadium for sponsorship reasons, has a capacity of 11,364 which is the smallest Premier League stadium in history.
For the year ending June 2021, Bournemouth recorded a pre-tax profit of £17.0m, turnover was down by £23.7m to £71.7m.
