Transfer News and Gossip Summer/Autumn Transfer Targets/Rumours Thread 2022

[Ozzer]

You've lost me there.

We're not privy to scholars of the game telling us about the plethora of players in our orbit. The problem before with us was signing players on their way down, but hey we knew them so of course we'd be excited until they spent 6 months out because they're broken.

Now it's about unearthed gems. We need to trust the recruitment process. Stan was an unknown back in the day, he came good. Let's just hope the next Stan comes our way now and pushes us up

That I understand. It was this sentence I didn't.

"We're not that well read and if we were John Still probably would have tapped us up"

 

[sufc4life21]

I’ve been told he was but that he’s signed for Dagenham!

You just sent shrimperzone into meltdown with that information. He clearly had his head turned, probably Daggers offered better deal. Sufc will have to move on to other targets.

If any of us had such encyclopaedic knowledge of the non league game, John Still would have us in his inner circle.

Sorry I missed a comma in my original post.

**** happens, next.

That's right. Sufc are in good place with the recruitment we have done. We only need 2/3 signings now before season starts.

Plenty more players out there.

Don’t need a nap maye its 6.30 in the evening sipping cigars off the coast of cuba , about to have some lobster for dinner … I know some of you find it hard that there’s more to life than shrimperzone . I don’t know or care who the players is ? So why would I know or care if he plays for us ? Simple really

Off topic, I know, but do you realise the irony in your post bragging about “sipping cigars”, about to enjoy “some lobster” “off the coast of Cuba” and having a life outside of SZ whilst still posting. Just enjoy yourself. The torture of the football will be back before we know it!

 

[Ozzer]

Have just been informed that unfortunately Omar Mussa has signed for Dagenham! So in the space of about 30 hours I’ve been told by 2 people involved within WFC that he’s signed for us & Dagenham

Always trust Smiffy & page 1

Seriously if our success or failure is down to one player we’ve learned nothing

Um no one has ever said that and now you're just spouting nonsense

I’m not talking about us plebs. I couldn’t care less what John from Rayleigh thinks. I’m making a general comment.

The recruitment team here are doing the right thing. They’ll get it wrong from time to time, they’re human. We will be fine.

 

[Leigh_Seasider]

From what I understand, D&R have been after Mussa for quite a while. I’d have thought a striker would be the next announcement..

Jai "Money talks, it doesn't matter if you get a few extra thousand through the gate at this level. Our fans place far too much importance on that."

100% correct...They have mortgages/rent and some will have families to support so the crowds no matter how high/low is way down their priority list.

When it comes to being paid they want it on the day (just like anybody does).

Players join clubs and then pose on the pitch with a scarf held high.
It is just like watching an actor perform.

How little do you think that club means to them?

meant a lot to the likes of Johm White, Stan Collymore and Kevin our manager as players,and im sure many others too.

 

[stewart]

Lets move on ,if Mussa has signed for Daggers fair enough , im sure theres better out there and positive Stan , JS and company will unearth them . In them i trust .

 

[Tampa Blue]

Of course Weymouth would love dealing with us when we took their whole Management Team from them - can’t imagine Ron handled that piece of business in the most sensitive manner.

 

[Bluefeet]

All I will say is someone is signed pictures taken and trained yesterday and today, announcement soon I guess

With Mussa seemingly about to be announced for daggers, I assume the player that has signed with pictures etc is a different name not appearing on the first page. Is anyone able to confirm this?

The player was/is Mussa if he has signed for daggers then it must have been at the very last minute as he had his photos done and had trained with us the last couple of days

Thank you for clarifying henry18

 

[flangejackrabbit]

Weirdly I was told we are signing someone "barely literate"? That I don't think is relevant to the recent Mussa discussion.

 

[MisterStubbs]

Surely photos wouldn’t be taken until he has officially signed.. for reasons such as he going off to sign somewhere else.
