The winning streak was increased to six matches on 26 April with a vital 1–0 victory over Crewe Alexandra.https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_div_2/7358613.stm Match Report Bournemouth 1–0 Crewe BBC News 26 April 2008 17 May 2010 Victory or a draw away at Carlisle United on 3 May, depending on Cheltenham Town and Gillingham's results, would ensure Bournemouth's survival in the division.
