Transfer News, Gossip & Speculation Summer/Autumn Transfer Targets/Rumours Thread 2022

Transfer news

No inside info (although I correctly predicted the signing date of our first signings which I suppose makes me a more reliable source than one of those anonymous twitter accounts) but my reading of the tea leaves is that we’re unlikely to announce someone this week.

I’ve no doubt things are being worked on but logistically it seems unlikely with a long weekend coming up that all the i’s will be dotted and t’s crossed in time to announce someone.
 
You do know deals can take weeks, sometimes even months to complete.

Just relax. Last week most people hadn’t heard of Lomas, now we are panicking because we haven’t signed him as soon as we had heard of him.
Trust me, I do heard of him, as I read non league papers, they seem to rate him highly and think he can play in EFL & higher.

You've ruined my Jubilee weekend 🤣

Maybe you do, but there is absolutely no need to panic, and ask twice in three/four days if there is any news when he was only rumoured to be a person of interest last week. And that is all it is, rumours.
 
According to Gary Johnson - Ben Wynter wants a move closer to London as he wants to be back closer to family (originally from Croydon, came up through Palace's system). So highly unlikely to take up the offer of a new contract at Torquay.

So if Wynter were to come to Southend he could still use his bathers & rubber ring then?

He could! All whilst being a heck of a lot closer to family than he is now.

He can also become unlikely best buds with Jason Demetriou after JD tried to murder him in cold blood during the final game of the season.

It could be a beautiful story!
 
Just my assumption, so probably should not have posted that,but as I said the lad is a good footballer,And did very well in our unbeaten run.
Have to say I found Matty very p,easy to and enjoyable in Our interactions since the player evening, we have exchanged several messages. But the mgmnt team made the dexcisions and i guess He could still return next season. However if they do Not bring him back I am sure they have others lined up to come in as well

Rejected a contract.

From the tweet before that, Armani Little, Connor Lemonheigh-Evans and Joe Lewis have all turned down new deals too. Lewis is 22 so Torquay will be due compensation for him. Any of those three would be brilliant signings. Probably will be off to league clubs.

Christ, that's a huge blow for Torquay. Pretty much all their top players leaving.
Hopefully at least Wynter is on our shopping list. Probably a huge stretch to expect Lemon or Little to be achievable.
 
Hello everyone,

I think Michael Gyasi at Dover Athletic could be a good attacking option. He could be one for now and the future.

Also, I am a young and upcoming football journalist who is trying to make it in the world of football media. I write for a website called ‘Back Page Football’ and I additionally write for ‘The Non-League Paper’ for Billericay Town which I thoroughly enjoy doing. Despite working for Billericay, I support Southend United and I try to get to as many games as possible.

I have my own website where I post all of my articles and I have put the link below if you would like to have a look -

jpjournalism.com

I have my own Instagram and Twitter pages, they are both jpjournalism_ if you would like to follow me, I post all of my articles there. I am trying to get as many followers as possible by the end of the year so if you could share this with as many people as possible that would be amazing.

Have a great day,
Jack
