Echo 18 Jan: Records not as important as promotion for Dunn
DAVID Dunn watched his Bournemouth stars smash more records but then admitted: It will count for nothing without promotion.
A stirring second-half performance from Lions helped them eventually ease past Barnstaple on Saturday to keep their title push on track.
Leading just 8-5 at the interval, a tactical switch paid dividends as Bournemouth ran riot to rack up 36 unanswered points for a 44-5 win.
The Chapel Gate outfit’s latest success – their 15th in 16 National Three South West matches – saw them write yet another chapter in the club’s history books.
Club historian Doug Warren confirmed that Dunn’s dominant team had scored more points (853) and tries (127) than Bournemouth had managed in any other standard league season – despite still having 10 games to play. MORE
