LONDON - Jason Tindall said on Saturday that he is ready for the challenge of returning Bournemouth at the first time of asking to the Premier League after replacing Eddie Howe.

The 42-year-old is steeped in the club's history having played 199 times for them and then was former teammate Howe's assistant for 12 years, which included a 21-month spell at Burnley."Given the success of the club over the last 12 years, with Eddie in charge and me by his side, I'm not going to come in and rip everything up and start again," Tindall said in a club statement.

"I know the Championship is a very tough league but my aim is to get this club back into the Premier League at the first time of asking," he said.Bournemouth owner Maxim Demin said Tindall had been the obvious candidate to replace Howe. "Jason has played a huge role in this club's success over the last decade and fully deserves to step up and become our new manager," said Demin.

"While his knowledge of and passion for the club is unquestionable, he was the standout candidate for this role."This is the start of a new era for this football club and I'm excited about what the future holds."
