Bournemouth legend Charlie Daniels certainly knows a thing or two about being in the right place at the right time.
Plucked from then League One rivals Leyton Orient in 2012, the defender’s time with the Cherries coincided with the club’s most successful period in their history.
Daniels played a key role for Bournemouth as they rose up the divisions to take their place alongside English football’s elite.
Now 38, he still reflects fondly on his time with the South Coast club.
Speaking exclusively to Mirror Football, the former defender said: “It was such a pleasure to be at Bournemouth at that time and be part of a squad that got those promotions and to the Premier League for the first time.
“Playing in the Premier League was I what dreams are made of in terms of being a professional footballer, having that success and going from league to league.
To see the same fans and people we saw in League One in the Premier League and have that journey with them was a really special moment.”

The mastermind behind Bournemouth’s accession through the leagues was current Newcastle boss Eddie Howe.
The willingness and desire to get better and win and want to get to the next level was crucial.”

There was no one we felt was better than us in that league and having that confidence and belief in ourselves was probably the perfect storm.”
Daniels eventually went on to make 129 Premier League appearances for Bournemouth before a terrible knee injury brutally ended his time with the club.
