Edward John Frank "Eddie" Howe (born 29 November 1977) is an English former footballer and manager. A defender before retirement who spent much of his career at Bournemouth after joining the club at the age of 13, he was the youngest manager in the Football League when appointed Bournemouth manager in January 2009. Howe rescued Bournemouth from relegation out of the Football League in his first season in charge, after the club started the season on -17 points, then led them to promotion the next. After a brief spell as manager at Burnley Howe returned to Bournemouth and led them to two further promotions in three seasons resulting in the club playing in the top flight of English football for the first time in their history. Howe's successes with Bournemouth resulted in him being given the inaugural Football League Manager of the Decade Award in 2015.〔http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/apr/28/eddie-howe-bournemouth-chapter-legacy〕〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32491830〕 ==Playing career== Howe began his footballing career with local youth teams Rossgarth and Parley Sports 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The return of Eddie Howe )〕 before starting his professional career at AFC Bournemouth.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Eddie Howe )〕 He made his first-team debut in December 1995 against Hull City.〔 Howe established himself as an important player in Bournemouth's defence and in 1998 he was selected for the England Under-21 team in the Toulon Tournament in 1998.〔 In March 2002, Portsmouth signed Howe for £400,000, making him new manager Harry Redknapp's first signing. He had played 237 games for Bournemouth. Shortly after signing, a knee injury on his debut against Preston North End F.C. ended his season. He returned for the opening game of the 2002–03 season against Nottingham Forest, but he injured his knee again after only nine minutes and was ruled out for the entire campaign. He did not return to full fitness until January 2004 after 18 months out. He was loaned to Swindon Town on transfer deadline day in March, although he did not feature for the club. Portsmouth loaned Howe back to Bournemouth for the first three months of the 2004–05. He proved to be successful on his return to his first club after two injury-ravaged seasons with Portsmouth. With the club in a very poor financial state, supporters joined together to create "Eddieshare" to fund a transfer fee. Within days of creation, £21,000 was raised funding the required permanent transfer fee.〔 After a further three seasons and over 50 appearances, in 2007 injuries forced his retirement as a player and he moved into coaching with the reserve squad.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eddie Howe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
