Warren Cummings (born 15 October 1980 in Aberdeen) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing for A.F.C. Bournemouth at left-wing back.

[edit] Playing career

Cummings started his career at Chelsea but never made it into the first team, and instead was loaned out several times - Bournemouth 2000-01,[1] West Bromwich Albion 2000-01 and 2001-02,[2] and Dundee United in 2002-03.[3]

Following his return from the Dundee Utd loan spell, Cummings was again loaned to Bournemouth, for a three month spell,[4] before signing a permanent deal with the club.[5] He went on to make 23 appearances for the Cherries in that season, helping them win promotion via the playoffs.

In the following season he established himself as a first team player, making 46 appearances in total and scoring 2 goals.

The 2004-05 season brought a playoff push for the Cherries, with Warren playing an important part and scoring 3 goals. However, during the away derby with Swindon Town in March 2005, he suffered a double broken leg in a crunch tackle by Town's Steve Jenkins. This was a major blow to both Cummings and the Cherries, and was a major factor in Bournemouth failing in their playoff bid. Nonetheless, Cummings signed a new deal with Bournemouth in the summer of 2006.[6] He made his league return as a late substitute in the 3-0 defeat to Chesterfield FC at the start of the 2006-07 campaign. In June 2007 Cummings signed a new two year deal with Bournemouth.[7] He broke his arm in a 1-1 draw with Northampton Town on 15 September 2007.[8]

He has won one Scotland Cap as he played in the Far East Tour game against a Hong Kong team in an unofficial International in 2002.
