Bradbury confirms he did not leave Bournemouth by mutual consent

Lee Bradbury is disappointed at being sacked by League One Bournemouth after 14 months at the helm with six defeats in his last eight games in charge. The 36 year old has also confirmed he was axed by chairman Eddie Mitchell, rather than leaving by mutual consent.

"I am naturally very disappointed that I have not been given time to see the fruition of all the hard work that has gone in to developing the current squad of players," he told the League Managers Association.

"I felt that we would be in a position to make a positive challenge for promotion next season, but it was not to be.

"I am never one to duck a challenge, so I would like to take this opportunity to clarify the fact that I did not resign or leave by mutual consent, the chairman decided that he wanted a change and I was dismissed."
