Jimmy Quinn's Bournemouth have still not wiped out the 17-point deficit imposed on them by the league for going into administration after a 0-0 draw with Morecambe.
The Cherries still need one more point to reach zero and remain second to bottom of the League Two table.

Morecambe might even have snatched an away win after soaking up plenty of pressure, but striker Danny Carlton missed two chances in stoppage time.

Carlton drilled his first opportunity straight at goalkeeper Shwan Jalal.

Then a minute later Carlton's header clipped the top of the bar when he was left unmarked.

Bournemouth had chances in the first half to have gone ahead, but the nearest they came to scoring was when a right-foot shot from on-loan striker Michael Symes struck the post.

Darren Anderton had a shot blocked at close range, and Warren Cummings had an in-swinging corner cleared from the line.

Bournemouth struggled to make an impact in the second half, but a shot from Danny Hollands drifted wide from the edge of the area as Morecambe held on to go five matches unbeaten.
