A Bit of Fun Transfer Rumours Thread (Potential New Signings)

He came on as a trialist at ht in Gloucester City’s 4-1 win v Coventry this afternoon.He still looks classy and set up chances for others but didn’t score.
Someone who can “set up chances for others” is precisely what we need.
 
I’m hearing it’s John akinde even after he started for gillingham today ??

I won’t say either way who any of the targets we are interested in.

On Akinde. Two things. Firstly, he was a MM target. There are people at the Club who were extremely annoyed and bitterly disappointed with his change of heart in January. Whether those people would like him at the Club remains to be seen.

Also, Clubs play players who are “out of favour” during pre-season as well. I mentioned about trialists in this thread, and an Akinde would fit into the bill of protecting the amount of minutes others get, don’t forget their season starts next weekend. Also, even if he is out of favour, it only takes a change of heart, a run of poor form, or even an injury crisis to be playing, so you are best off keeping players fit just incase.

Some of our players today aren’t in the reckoning for the first team and they played. Same situation could be said of Akinde.
