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. [cite news
