Browning Optimism

Speaking to BBCi, Marcus is quoted as saying: "You lose a couple and you're looking over your shoulder - you win a few and you're looking up. In the last few games, we've shown a bit of character which has bred confidence - the new lads are bedded in now, and everyone knows their role. And we've got some players coming back now, which is healthy for the squad".

Next up for the Cherries is the LDV Vans Trophy match against Aldershot Town at Dean Court on Tuesday evening.
