Done some detective work.....article taken from Bournemouth equivalent of beesotted.com website on Rivals.

"Earlier today, we broke the news that Spicer will sign a permanent deal with the Cherries later this week.

Cherries chairman Peter Phillips has confirmed that the club are tantalisingly close to signing midfield marvel John Spicer on a permanent deal.

The club are optimistic that the Arsenal starlet will sign in time for Saturday's League One clash against Swindon at Dean Court.

Peter Phillips has been hard at it negotiating with Arsenal for some time now, even missing the Bradford home game to spend time discussing the deal with the London Club.

The Cherries are not the only ones interested in the 21-year-old. Brentford are reported to have put in a bigger offer to gain the services of Spicer but the midfielder has already pledged his loyalty to Dean Court, refusing to join any other League One club.
Spicer, who is at the end of a three-month loan spell is reported to have come back from Arsenal and trained with Cherries at Canford School this morning."

Seems like your information is confirmed.

Deal still up in the air, odds stacked against us, shame they are also doing well & still in the Cup, get in there Mad Dog!!!

He has looked a decent prospect, he joined them a day day or two after we beat them and they went on that massive winning streak. He was the catalyst for that.

 

[homerbees]

Sign him up Martin, you can pull it off....

He looked very good from the game i saw of him against Blackburn and he's certainly helped turn them into promotion hopefuls.

 

[CJC]

Especially if the stadium stuff comes off tomorrow, we can prove that it's better to be at an ambitious club like Brentford than on the south coast. Though Bournemouth look good this year.

 

[The Walrus]

if spicer is already in london he may want to come to brentford instead of moving to the south coast, problem is i thought he was a striker, and do we realy need a striker. me thinks we will see cherio to ben may IF we get spicer

 

[North London Bee]

Good player but do not think this will happen. Good luck to him elsewhere.

Maybe other things are afoot - let's hope so given the extra Cup income

It's kinda boring though wouldn't you say? And in Bournemouth.

Let me see, south coast or London? mmmmmmm

If you're a young footballer who wants to still see his mates and live somewhere with a good nightlife then London. He's not retiring just yet!

bournemouth's got a good nightlife, so i hear...

 

[NorthamptonBee]

Tis true.

 

[Simon W]

Believe or not.. there is life outside the M25 lol

 

[christom]

Where????????

 

[CJC]

Bournemouth may have a 'good nightlife' but has it got Chinawhite for the discerning footballer?

There isn't life outside the North Circular let alone the M25.

 

[Mr Tree]

he's probably only earning £30k a year or so (quick maths :suspect: ) so he's hardly rollin in it like prem stars. and footballers shouldn't actually care too much about the nightlife of a place and bournemouth is doubtless cheaper to live in, so i doubt us making him a "bigger offer" would mean too much in real terms

 

[Simon W]

Maybe.. just maybe.. he might want to put his footballing career ahead of his social life...

With regard to life outside M25 .. You don't realise it until you move.. try it CJC you will be suprised, there are a lot of places a much nicer than Camden

If you look at your road atlas, you will see that Brentford is outside the North Circular.

Too right Simon like Pantiles, Envy and JW's

 

[Jimbee]

Yes, I moved to Camberley for 3 1/2 years in the mid-90's for a better lifestyle - I have lived in Whitton for the last 9 years.

Thats funny... I was born in Whitton and lived there for 25 years before moving out this way... I would never go back...

But hey.. this thread is not about where the nicest place to live is.. lets not get side tracked here...

Bournemouth secure Spicer signing
