AFCB Chairman, Eddie Mitchell is encouraging fans who have yet to buy their season ticket for next season to do so sooner rather than later in a bid to help Eddie Howe strengthen his squad for the new season.
Speaking in the Bournemouth Evening Echo, Mitchell is quoted as saying: "We would like to think that if we could get in the funds from season ticket and pre-season friendly sales, we could offer Eddie a bit more support by way of new players. The more revenue we can get in, the more we can support the team. We have got to be hell-bent on staying in League One. That is going to be a hard job in itself because it is a much better standard. We would rather sell tickets today than towards the start of next season. The transfer window is open and we would like to take advantage of it now".
On the outstanding legacy debts, Mitchell goes on to say: "We have still got the liquidation payment to clear and we have still got to catch up with the rent. We have still got money to find and we need it as soon as possible. At this moment in time, they are the only two obstacles and we need help to clear them because we have got no matchday income until our first friendly".
