Groves: Owners are pushing club forward

AFC Bournemouth manager Paul Groves believes the Cherries owners are pushing hard to take the club to the next level.

On the pitch and Paul Groves is the man in-trusted with attempting to take the club to the second tier of English football for only the second time in its history.

While off the pitch Cherries co-owners Eddie Mitchell and Maxim Denim are building the infrastructure to prepare the club for the Championship.

The newly sponsored Goldsands Stadium at Dean Court and the surrounding area of Kings Park has been transformed in recent months and the new training ground facility to the south of the stadium was officially opened by Harry Redknapp on Saturday, the only man to have achieved what Paul Groves is now attempting to replicate.

Groves told the Daily Echo...

"Certainly the owners are pushing and are looking to take the club forward. I feel it is an exciting place to be and they are backing to the hilt what we are doing.

"They are trying to improve not just the playing squad but the training facilities and the facilities in and around the ground. They are improving the infrastructure to take the club to the next level.
