Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2023-24

I know it’s been discussed but I can’t remember - why is it that Lomas is supposedly leaving? Seems an odd time with Hobson and Lopata both leaving. Surely you’d expect him to be starting for the season.

It appears he has quite a distance to travel ,has 2 children & a mortgage

Has the club moved since last summer? Sounds like a poor excuse when in reality he needs a regular wage

 

[The Big Dady]

Think most of the first choice players on the ‘white board’ have probably been scrubbed off.
Thanks Ron

Someone has rewritten the White Board?

Not the words I would have used but at least they kept it clean

You said it yourself a Regular Wage

 

[thenobster]

I know it’s been said hundreds of times but Ron martin will never be forgotten for what he has done to our club , as you say thanks Ron

Neither forgotten or forgiven

If we come out of this and still end up with Andrew Dallas, what a man.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

The very clued up @londonshrimper. reckons Dallas is off to Barnsley but we’re interested in Eastbourne’s Shiloh Remy

Perhaps he or his agent haven't been given enough assurance that he would be getting a regular spot this season! by Kev, that combined with everything else thats happened, so is off to be local and first choice nearer home.

I’m not really that bothered about Mooney, hasn’t really worked out.

Same. Happens with certain players

He’ll probably do well elsewhere.

Keeper and an attacking midfielder?

Would suggest a keeper is not a priority. We only have 3 players who are comfortable playing in central defence. Need I say that Ralph won't play a full season and Taylor may be better in midfield. Attacking midfielder looks like Jack Wood might be the answer. Only Cardwell, Sandat and Powell up front. Keeper definitely not a priority.

We have one goalkeeper. One goalkeeper who is 19, still learning the game, and has suffered with injuries too. 100% a goalkeeper is a priority too.

If/When the embargo is lifted I think you’ll see us strengthen in goal , defence , midfield and attack. This football department aren’t gonna leave any stone unturned .

Absolutely this. A keeper is a top of the list requirement.

Let’s hope Mooney can leave per his human rights rather than be threatened like lopata

 

[Boreham Blue]

Just feel Mooney not really the right fit for our system. Not near the top of the list of players I'm most keen we keep.

It has nothing to do with human rights.

 

[Kat_r]

Not paying them and then saying they will be taken to court if they try and leave the situation is a human rights issue

Try defending it if you like but it ain’t a good look

Ron failing to pay players and staff is to his great shame, but to suggest Mooney’s human rights have been infringed just makes you look nuts.

Not everything that is ‘wrong’, or ‘unfair’ to someone (in someone’s opinion) is a human rights issue.

We are all humans, and we all have rights but that doesn’t make everything a human rights issue no matter how wrong or contemptible the issue.
