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

Omar mussa should be on page1 now I think as he’s a free agent we wanted him before makes a bit of sense. Got a feeling he may be on the famous white board

Let’s be honest I think BW2 has basically confirmed he’s on the whiteboard, but whether he’s option A/B/C is debatable (I’d imagine he’s not top choice).

Just trying to bump up our transfer list on page one not many names on it

You won’t get many names on it.

London Shrimper is the only one that puts names out there. I don’t, and CP doesn’t. He only broke the news about us in talks with a defender and a striker the day they both signed.

TC9 on Twitter is nonsense, we won’t feature with speculation on sky sports news or anything like that, so you are basically just left with London Shrimper’s Twitter posts…

Update on Mussa from a daggers fan and an ITK there

Two years ago and bullet very much dodged, waste of money by wages and transfer fee, also a wasted career for him and now on trial at Torquay hope he is keeping up on repayments for that brand new Merc he bought.

So if you go over the last 10 years and look at the two teams that went down from L2 and the teams that went upto to the NL look at their results head to head against each other. I think you be pleasantly surprised.

So after promoted teams strengthen and relegated teams lose their better players they’re on a more even footing?

Look, I can get behind the idea that the top 5 of the NL are probably better than the bottom 5 of L2 and that the bottom 5 of the NL are similar to the top 5 of the NLN/NLS. But there’s a gulf between the top 5 of the NL and the bottom 5 of the NL). And then between the top of NLS and the bottom of NLS and so on.

We’re talking about the Isthmian Prem which is another level below NLS. And talent at that level is spread much more thinly as the football pyramid widens out.

Three Isthmian Premier champions (so finishing about 20 points above the team in 5th) have made it to to the NL since 2013. Those sides are Maidstone (finished 24th), Dorking (16th then 23rd), Wealdstone (19th then 16th). Teams finishing c20 points behind them are not equivalent to the teams finishing top 5 in the NL and would get destroyed in L2.

The gap between Isthmian Prem and L2 is absolutely massive.

 

[Thundersley Blue]

Wouldn't dispute that. I watched Stowmarket play Heybridge a couple of years ago. Tilly was manager and Alan McCormack came on as a substitute on the hour mark. He was head and shoulders above anyone else on the pitch. That was an Isthmian North match. There is definitely a chasm between that level and even the National League, let alone League 2.

Seen rumours Dagenham are interested in taking him back

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

What’s junior morias up to? Looking to move from notts county?

Apparently asking a fortune for for wages and accommodation contribution, plus County looking to recoup majority of what they paid for him.

deal looking far from completing.

 

[* ORM *]

He must be chuffed

I’ve heard he is first class. Is he now training?

 

[Thor1]

He must be chuffed

He's from the wrong side of the tracks, wouldn't suit us. He'd just sit all day in the sidings.

 

[Andy_S]

deal looking for from completing.

With who? Dagenham?

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

With who? Dagenham?

Daggers can't afford the deal from what I am hearing.

Hopefully I'm not being fed a line.

 

[Realist]

Ok so I completely forgot about National South. Basically my point was two leagues below L2 isn’t much difference. So I’m meaning national north and south.

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

As Hornby gone elsewhere what news re a goalkeeper incoming?
