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

[BALDY]

He will be seeing 2k away end at his own home ground!

Why should he care....He wants to earn a wage and get paid on time.

Not something you need to worry your head about though is it mate? We've signed 5 decent players so far and will probably bring some more in. If we have missed out on Mussa then we'll move on to other targets.

As for next season, no doubt we can have a conversation about progress and success when we all get going.

Trust me I'm not worried was asking a genuine question that it all seems to have gone quiet on the Ron Martin front now you have a couple old school players running the show. No doubt you’ll do better next season have you down as an outside chance of play offs if you manage to get a striker in, you need 80+ goals to do anything in this league.

Do you seriously have nothing better to do than advise us on here. Do you have no Daggers mate that will have a chat. For what’s it’s worth I love coming to your ground, last season apart mind, great little club with real hardcore support apart from the new Daggers youth who want to try it on! Wish you luck next season but not at our expense

Things like this happen. A few famous ones over the years was Robinho to Chelsea but signed for Man City and Nabil Fekir to Liverpool. Both were in their respective ‘new clubs’ training gear. Oh well, we’ll move in to next target

Also if you’ve seen the Leeds United documentary on Amazon, the same thing happened with Dan James when they tried to sign him from Swansea. I imagine it’s very common in football.

You do realise the majority of the fanbase still does not like him right? No one is protesting out of respect of allowing our actually good management and team to do their thing, without distraction. This summer still hasn't been problem free and that comes straight from the top. Just because you do not visibly see fans protesting and marching down the street, doesn't mean we like him and it's happy ever after.

Anyway, its irrelevant to the thread, but you're more than welcome to start a new one just to be ridiculed.

Ron Martin will be going nowhere until the Fossetts Farm project gets a good way down the road.

As for this forthcoming season, we stand a chance of surprising a few, especially if we get off to a solid start. As I said earlier, it's too early to speculate. On the goals front, Grimsby managed it with 68 so it can be done with less than 80, and I see you manged 80 goals for, disappointingly for you it didn't help you last season. But I do get your point on the goals for front.

 

[smudgster]

Perhaps we could not guarantee him first team football ? We are building a strong squad and hopefully there will be a healthy competition for places.

If he does not want to sign good luck to him, lets move on.

While Ron still owns the club he isn't running any aspect of the day to day anymore which is where he was a disaster and hence since we've changed considerably on and off the field. Don't get me wrong I'd prefer if he had no attachment at all with the club.

He has some things to deal with outside of football on the horizon which should give him what he fully deserves.

4 new signings!!!

 

[BoyWonder2]

A little update before I go away tomorrow.

It does appear that our “good news” next week won’t be happening, and he’ll be signing for Dagenham. I’m trying to find out what exactly has happened there, because he trained with us, he did his photos, and even the post joining “can’t wait to get started” interview. As far as I was away, he’d signed the deal, but trying to get to the bottom of that.

I know his agent hasn’t exactly covered himself in glory here, and hasn’t made many friends in Essex with his antics.

Also, the striker, that move has stalled. The Club in question are asking for a six-figure fee, for someone whose deal expires at the end of the season. From what I gather, he was keen on us, and the personal terms/medical etc. would have been a formality. If this is something that can be resolved, remains to be seen. Does the player in question kick up a fuss his end, and that gets the deal through at a “reasonable” price? I don’t know. Do we revisit it in January, and hope for a knockdown price then? If we do, do we hold out on signing a new forward until then? Do we use the loan market for a stop gap signing? Or do we move onto another target and forget him? Time will tell.

Not the best update before I go away. However, as the deal with “good news” shows, things change very quickly in football. They say a week is a long time, but 24 hours is a long time in football. Hopefully there is some positive news before I return, but I gather these two were the “closest”.

There are other targets in mind for these positions, so this isn’t the end of the world. It’s a bump along the way.

Up The Shrimpers!

Six figure fee for someone at this level are you having a ****ing laugh!?

Paul McCallum’s contract ends at the end of next season, what’s the odd Dag and Red are taking the **** there.

Clubs in league 1 and 2 can’t even pay that sort of money

Thanks for the update BW, have a good holiday

get a feeling that’s cheek…

 

[Petejames]

Cheeks contract ends this year, they wouldn’t be asking for a fee for him.

Cheek had a clause for another year that Bromley triggered I might be wrong tho

 

[sufcjoe]

Wealdstone have announced they have rejected an offer for Josh Umerah who has a year to run on his contract 16 goals last season so realistic target 6 figure fee though surely not

 

[LI11]

Josh Kelly has another year… makes the most sense to me

 

[Tampa Blue]

Ron Martin will be going nowhere until the Fossetts Farm project gets a good way down the road.

Well he might have to if he’s found guilty when he goes to trial

 

[sufcjoe]

In Wealdstone’s press release they state his got another year

 

[JAL]

Apologies, yes he has one year left but can't personally see it being Wealdstone forcing that amount of money.

 

[RHB]

Truthfully, I would be amazed if the trial ever takes place. And even if it does get listed it will be years I reckon.
