After their 3-0 victory last night over Bolton, the Bournemouth "Cherries" will be playing in the Premier League next season for the first time in their history !
This moment has been awaited for a long time, ever since April 1948, when they came second in the old Third Division (South) and stayed at that level for a long, long time ! It was QPR who were promoted after they beat Bournemouth 1-0 in a mid-week match !
I have always been a QPR supporter but I have also kept a eye open for Bournemouth, often wondering what might have been, had they been promoted in 1948 !
QPR have had their "ups and downs", moments of Glory and Hell ! The irony today is that Bournemouth will join the elite and take the place of QPR who will drop into the Second Division again, 12 months after being promoted !
Congratulations Bournemouth and I wish you luck !
