Bradbury: You get little dips in form

AFC Bournemouth manager Lee Bradbury believes the Cherries have got to keep their self belief after suffering their third defeat in succession.

A Peter Murphy goal was enough to earn Carlisle the three points and send AFC Bournemouth the 360 miles back to the south coast.

The Cherries have now lost against Exeter, Southampton and Carlisle over the past 10 days and Bradbury hopes the side can recover to put together a final push to continue the race for back-to-back promotions.

Bradbury told BBC Radio Solent...

'On another day we should have won the game - it's three defeats on the spin. We've got to keep the self belief.

'You get little dips in form and this has come at the wrong time at the wrong end of the season.

'We've got a lot of lads who are injured that are coming back and can strengthen the squad for the final push of nine games.'
