Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2023-24 (Part 2 - Back in Business. Oh no we’re not)

[Liam AAS]

The idea that we will spend £100k on any player while we are in the NL is laughable

Yes we've been taken over, but we're not in the position to be making those kind of moves

I think we can but we wont. Clearly the consortium have unshackled the club but will be weary about Ron, short-termism and being seen as overspenders. A loan makes sense as it provides cover without any commitment.

If CP is tweeting it's close it must be virtually done as he doesn't write stories until its least "95%" done / confirmed. Dackers would be a great add for the last few months of the season. Not gunna add tonnes of goals but does a great job.

If we do sign Danny Waldron as my nephew from HK pointed out hope he has the same characteristics as his namesake in Line of Duty who was Head of firearms. A GREAT AIM AND ALWAYS HITS THE TARGET .haha

Surprised you didn't use bullet points for that post mate.

 

[dusterman]

Dackers and Sandat could work really well.

whoever we get has to be of the highest calibre…..


I’ll get me coat

 

[Paddypel]

Wow, this is a nice change reading positive movements on 3 potential targets. I guess the consortium haven’t completely written off this seasons after all

I wouldn't discount the josh walker rumour.

Looking at the Burton Albion board. They feel he is out of his depth at league 1, although he is being played as a winger rather than his proper position.

They seem to think he is on his way to a national league club.

We'd be in the playoffs if it weren't for Ron. There are STILL only 4 teams with a better goal difference than us. We're not out of this by a long shot

I don't think anyone can expect any promotion push this season. Dackers is a great get for a few months whilst Cards is out. The signings of Morton and Crowther are looking to the future and by getting them now, it gives them 4 months to settle in ahead of next season. Add Waldron to that list and Maher is starting to get the right kind of players in (young, promising, talented) to compliment the squad.

 

[Streaky]

Having BK up top has shown we need a "big man" so i can 100% see the value in Dackers (if its him) coming in to play alongside Sandat & AN Other

 

[RHB]

We might just find that Harry is fit and ready a lot sooner than many thought.

 

[Evening Echo]

SOUTHEND United are close to bolstering their attacking options.

Hopefully, but I'm definitely not complaining at competition for places.

I don't think anyone expects promotion, but this theory to "save it for next season" seems foolish when we're winning games despite the embargo we suffered. We also have 2 games in hand on the last play off position and 3 and a half months to go until the end of the season to plug the gap.

I'm not expecting play offs at all, but to not go for it seems a waste. I appreciate how close we are to the relegation zone but but I still have yet to see a team I've deemed unbeatable in this division, therefore I'm looking up the table, not down.

Why not go for it?

 

[palexander]

Sounds like Dackers??

Was about to say this, Dackers would be the perfect partner for Henry IMO

I don't think it's about writing the season off. I think it takes time to build a title challenging team. Both Morton and crowther would have been snapped up if we didn't sign them. It also gives them 6 months to bed in and settle rather than signing 15 players in the summer and have that period during the new season. look at Oldham's start for example

 

[NZamba Legend]

I think Bergkamp had a better first touch than Dackers, but probably not much in it overall

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

Dackers on loan and Walker as a permanent

I personally think that HSBC could easily play off Dackers. Certainly got the speed and control to play the channels.
