Last updated : 31 July 2006 By Bournemouth Co-Ordinator
Goals from Mwaruwari, Johnson, LuaLua, plus an OG from Warren Cummings sealed the home sides fate.

Cherries made eight changes at half time to bring on a more youthfull looking second half eleven and Harry Redknapp played down a much more experienced side scoring three second half goals.

Neil Moss completed the match and Lionel Ainsworth was given a good run-out against testing opposition.

AFCB (1st half): Moss, Purches, Hart, Broadhurst, Howe, Cooper, Foley, Browning, Ainsworth, Fletcher, Hayter.
AFCB (2nd half): Moss, Cummings, Gowling, Haverson, Coutts, Hollands, Cooke, Cooper (Browning), Ainsworth (Hayter), Pitman, Platt.
