According to the Cumberland News Derek Holmes is not too far away from departing Dean Court for Conference promotion chasing Carlisle United.
To quote their report, the paper says that: "Holmes, 26, is understood to have agreed personal terms with United but the deal could be scuppered as the Cherries are thought to be holding out for a transfer fee".
Manager Sean O'Driscoll is said to have denied that such a move is on the cards.
