Hollands To Go Under The Knife

Last updated : 22 November 2007 By Bournemouth Co-Ordinator
Although disappointed to see red on Tuesday at the end of the FA Cup match against Barrow, it now means that the enforced lay-off allows Danny Hollands to get his hernia repaired.

Speaking to the Bournemouth Evening Echo, Hollands is quoted as saying: "Getting the red card was a disappointment but in some ways it turned out for the best. I've been there before for an operation on my right side and was back playing in seven days. Hopefully it can be the same and I'll be back playing if everything goes right. The gaffer thought I can't play on Saturday so I might as well get it done and, as soon as the suspension is done, I haven't got to miss anything else. It's killing two birds with one stone".
