The 2014–15 season is A.F.C. Bournemouth's 2nd season in the Football League Championship following their promotion from Football League One in 2013.

On 25 October 2014 Bournemouth won 8–0 away at St. Andrew's against Birmingham City. It was the first time that the Cherries had ever scored eight goals in a league game (barring a 10–0 win over Northampton Town in September 1939 which was expunged from the records after World War II broke out the next day) and they recorded their biggest winning margin in a league fixture.[1] This season will be remembered as Bournemouth's greatest ever season. They won promotion to the Premier League, and promotion to England's top division, for the first time in their history by winning the Championship on the 2nd May 2015.
