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

Forums New posts
The Zoom call cleared up what we all knew that the eyebrow raising striker is John Akinde. He was offered a deal that would’ve made him the joint highest paid player, he rejected and then subsequently got injured.

I’m glad he rejected it, especially as he got injured and has rejected us twice now. Let’s hope we can use that money towards someone else who actually gives a **** and wants to play!

He wanted another £500 per week.
 
I never really rated Weston, overall I thought he was disappointing. However the one game that really mattered at Wembley he got the most dramatic assist, plus scored a great pen in the shootout. A legend for that one game alone:Worthy:
Back on topic Michael Cheek... if we couldn’t afford Akinde’s wage demands, I wonder if Cheek, with a great goal scoring record in non-league would be available for much less… Plus I guess we’d need to pay a transfer fee. Probably not realistic IMO.

If I remember correctly, his dad is a shrimper.

I am not sure McCallum (27) is better than Dalby (21) who already looks like an exceptional talent. Indeed, I would not be surprised if Wrexham make a move for him after his performance against them.

Personally, I think Southend need a new striker that would not break up the Dalby-Murphy but would nevertheless keep them on their toes and be a competitve replacement if either was injured. I think Mike Fontop would come into that category, but I am not sure he is still available.

Is Mcallum actually a striker though. I thought he was an attacking midfielder.
