AFC Bournemouth's former captain has recounted the "overwhelming" support of fans 25 years after a night when they rallied together to save their club.
Two-thousand people packed the town's Winter Gardens theatre on 28 January 1997, stuffing buckets with cash in a bid to stave off the debt-ridden team's seemingly inevitable bankruptcy.
The night led to the club's survival.
Matt Holland, Cherries captain at the time, told the BBC he had feared they had already played their final game.
The club, then in the third tier of English football, owed millions of pounds to creditors, was being pursued by the Inland Revenue for unpaid tax and routinely failed to pay its staff.
