Pick Of The Cherries - February 28th

Last updated : 28 February 2002 By Andy Burton
AFC Bournemouth have revealed that Oldham Athletic have made a bid for Eddie Howe. Their initial offer was rejected and the Clubs are now locked in negotiation over the fee.

The Club have allowed Eddie to speak to Oldham Athletic to discuss personal terms.

The potential move will come as no surprise as Eddie is one of the Clubs most prized assets, and with finances as tight as ever at Dean Court, then a player sale before the transfer deadline will come as no shock.

The loss of such a key player at this stage of the season will be a blow, but the future of the Club financially must come first.
