Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2024/25 - Time to Cook 👨‍🍳

[Medway Blue]

Interesting. Would you care to expand?

Don't take the bait.

 

[Hadleigh-shrimper]

Never mind GSM might not be here after Jan. The rate it's going neither will Kev, Darren or Mark

Why hopefully they don’t get poached we’d be screwed

 

[Hadleigh-shrimper]

Miley is a yard too slow hence the frequent 'pullbacks' and associated yellow cards. We need a couple of proper bullys who are quick and forward thinking

Mate come on we’re in national league for a reason , you won’t get better than cm.


Anyway why do ppl keep going off topic me included sorry,

Any incomings?

At 6'3 Cards was a threat to the opposition defence. He was fast and useful with his feet for a tall guy. His movement was excellent. We have nothing in the club close to him, currently playing or out injured, hence the need for a unit up front. Against Sutton, Bonne and Pepple looked to be trying to battle in the land of the giants. Sutton got back in numbers and quashed the middle attack and they easily cleared any lofted, and there were too many, balls into the box. Our only hope would have been to get behind them at pace and cross low for the onrushing player to tap in.

We need a big unit to make the oppo defence have a challenge and to give us greater options.

Or we need to be able to play it in behind early before these units in defence get set. We missed a couple of chances to do this in the first half v Sutton…. We did it once v Eastleigh

Pace… please

 

[dusterman]

Pace… please

KAF looks pacey in the middle of the park.

At 27 I don't believe he fits their age profile. They like to sign players in the 20-24 age bracket who they feel will hold better re-sale value.

A move to someone like Wrexham,Charlton or Rotherham would be much more likely imo.

Yes spot on Posh buy them young and sell them on, they have had several players from us the latest being Brad Ihionvien, they wanted Szmodics but were outbid by Bristol City, but got him later on when he failed to do well at Bristol. They have had Kwame Poku and Frankie Kent and no doubt will come back for more soon!

I feel like Matt Dennis would be a great signing

Wasn't he deemed incredibly lazy after his initial good form? If true it's a no from me.

Some suggested, but I wouldn't say no to him now. Not getting a look in at McDons

I think he had a very laid back approach to training.

He was a valuable member of the group though & his goals spoke for themselves.

What happened to the couple of signings we were close too? Are these still on the cards?

All we need is a 6.8inch striker , with the heart of a Lion, who loves the team comes first concept , who can outleap an Olympic high jumper , is built like a brick s-House, likes to head a lamppost, for fun is 3 footed, possesses a, Rolls Royce engine and with the pace of an autobahn petrolhead , and for some looks like George Clooney ? Simples

And this is why we should have made sure we had Demetriou's contact refreshed with the addition of a small step ladder.
