Bournemouth chairman: 'Eddie Howe is the local messiah'

Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn describes Cherries manager Eddie Howe as "the local messiah" following the South Coast club's promotion to the Premier League.

Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn has described club manager Eddie Howe as "the local messiah".

The 37-year-old was named Manager of the Year at the LMA Awards earlier this week after steering the Dorset club to the Championship title.

"He's a local boy as well as the local messiah," Mostyn told BBC Sport.

"His right-hand man Jason Tindall and Simon Weatherstone, our first-team coach, are disciples following in his footsteps."

Bournemouth are preparing for their Premier League debut and their first ever season in the top flight of English football after finishing the 2014-15 Championship campaign as division champions.
