Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2024/2025.

Transfer news
Blimey someone been very busy on Google ( LOL )
I knew the AC Milan one but couldn't remember the season but knew it was early 90s and it was around 35 goals

Of course all well and good not worrying about goals if your defense is meaner than the Grinch.

Ours however does seem like a sieve at times so we have to go back to the mindset of "score one more than you" to win. A 20 a season striker is something that everyone would want on their shopping list. But its a team as a collective that all need to chip in with the goals.

Gus and Coker are / have done their bit. Everyone else seems to be quite lacking. What we'd give for the non-league equivalent of a Barrett and Clarke combo.
 
Do the "in the knows" know if we have players lined up for the January window?

January was hinted at because the players we wanted to bring in required those selling clubs to be able to bring their replacements in. IF we have got players in mind from EFL, then they can’t bring their replacements in until January.

For example, Woking bringing in Effiong and then allowing us to bring in Kendall.

We have a list of targets, as you would expect, and hopefully Kev & Co can bring in those that they require.
 
Its interesting how the top 3 teams quickly moved on the transfer front as well as clocking up big squads and mighty use of loan players and free transfers and all 3 completed massive overhauls, (which I understand doesnt work ?? )

Top of table York city squad 26. Brought in 24 of which 12 free transfers and 10 loanees to date
2nd place Barnet squad 25 Brought in 21 , 13 free transfers and 4 loanees
3rd spot Gateshead squad 29 Brought in 25 9 free transfers 10 loanees

So thats 3 complete overhauls 80 players recruited sharpish , of which 34 were freebies and 24 are loanees. seems somebody else is quite good at recruitment many of course from the lower leagues

? Mildly Interesting Steve Davies ?
 
Amazing what you can do when not saddled with an embargo…
Obviously we wouldn’t have overhauled the squad but we definitely missed out on 3 or 4 who would have made a big difference (I think)…
Knowing Maher we'd have signed Pearce and kept him on the bench

B b b but it’s so difficult to bring in players!

Out of interest how many of those 80 players were signed when we were under embargo and what are their wages compared to what we are willing to pay?
