Hmmm.....Interesting....I wonder how much the two clubs have talked about this recently, if at all? Playing career Lallana was born in St Albans but moved to the Iford area of Bournemouth[1] when he was five years old. He was a member of the Bournemouth Centre of Excellence, where his rich potential was eventually spotted by a talent scout from Southampton, with Lallana snapped up by the then-Premier League club, joining the Saints Academy as a 12–year old in 2000. Southampton paid £3,000 compensation to Bournemouth with further payments of £5,000 and £10,000 when he signed scholarship and professional contracts respectively. The contract with Southampton provides for Bournemouth to receive 25% of any transfer fee, in addition to the payments already made.[1] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be the end for them. Administration twice has not helped them has it! Oh dear, you won't fit in around here. You seem to be labouring under the assumption that going into administration is a bad thing, and does no good whatsoever for the club going into admin. Frankly you're wrong. Administration is a fantastic empowering experience that makes all clubs fifty times stronger than ever before and shooting back up through the leagues like Apollo 11. It will be the single greatest thing that ever happens to us and I for one will be dancing on the streets when we go into admin as it is second only to winning the Euromillions on a quadruple rollover. Or something. Well it must be that for the number of fans on here screaming for us to "take the plunge" and ranting on about how brilliant it will be to have "a clean slate".

Add into that mix, intransigent, egotistical, petty, small minded, dodgy or possibly unscrupulous businessmen, hangers on and general riff raff that the club has hanging around their board room and is it any wonder that Admin has not worked. Sorry - was talking about an alleged club up the road, but suddenly recognised it as allegedly being a club closer to home...

NickG Posted 6 February, 2009 Share Posted 6 February, 2009 This is absolutely reliable - PLC board will announce 1st week of Feb that company is entering administration. This is info I have obtained this afternoon from a wholly credible source. An absolutely massive blow, as I read this as relegation now a certainty. While it may in the long term prove a blessing in disguise, this will prove the absolutely bottom point we have reached for many decades. I am gutted tonight I cannot share my source, but suffice to say it is a party involved in the process I earlier received a message saying Admin is due on 3rd Feb, so it might be that the rumour is flying around quickly and not true. But if we were going into admin it would have to be before the march deadline? have heard similar. anyone getting back to their sources for updates?

I've asked the question on here many times and never got a decent response. Since the -10 points law came in, how many of the teams that entered Admin are better off now, then before (in terms of league position). Answer - none. (Leeds, Bradford, Rotherham, Bournemouth...) IF it meant for sure Lowe et al were gone for good, ace. Somehow i doubt taking admin and the ten point drop this season would mean we would start next season with the clean slate people think we would.

No, i'm not suggesting nothing. Not at all. I want Lowe gone probably more than the next man. I'm just worried Admin isn't the right route. We need to do something but there is no proof admin will get rid of Lowe or improve our situation. In fact that looks worse. We need to pressure Lowe to quitting and get Crouch in, albeit short term. And to that end get marching, get boycotting, do something and hope beyond hope we stop up in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
