Record crowd sees 'incredible' Cherries seal title

Bournemouth boss Steve Cuss hailed his all-conquering side's "incredible achievement" as they sealed promotion to the third tier of women's football by beating Bristol Rovers in front of a record crowd at Vitality Stadium.

The Cherries have now won all 18 of their FA Women's National League Division One South West fixtures to date, scoring 82 goals and conceding a meagre three in the process.

Sunday's 2-0 victory, which secured the title and a place in next year's Southern Premier Division with four games to play, was witnessed by 7,076 fans - the highest-ever Bournemouth attendance for a women's game.
