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

[Yorkshire Blue]

No my point was Goodship scored the goals at the Conference South and the level below that. Didn't score at NL level (i.e. National League) or above. Cheek is completely different he has scored regularly at NL level (indeed the question is why he has never signed for a L2 club- there will be a reason).
What the comparison shows (or suggests) is the big jump between Conference N & S and the NL (= National League not non-league)

No, as was pointed out earlier Goodship was crap at Conference South as well. He was prolific the two levels below that.

Anyone know if Murphys any good?

Just done 2 seasons with Yeovil where he scored 34 goals in 65 games, which works out about a goal every other game. Very impressive.

I would be delighted with Rhys, the exact type of striker for this level. I even would have had him in league 2.

Source?

Moley doesn't post goss often but it's usually been accurate till now, assume whoever it is has a club source.

Fair play.

Hearing Rumours that the 2 signings are Paul McCallum of Daggers and Solihull Moors striker who is the tallest professional footballer in England at
6ft 9 inches, Kyle Hudlin.

McCallum is on a three year contract and Hudlin has a host of league clubs chasing him.

Alan Devonshire is not the clubs chief scout he’s their actual manager and I suspect he would be reluctant to loose him. However, whilst the lad is only 25 yoa, he has only reached double figures over the last two seasons.

Thanks for the correction about Devonshire.

Just noticed Crawley released Joe McNerney who I think would be a decent fit and within range.

Some other interesting names:
Our ex youth teamer Dylan Duncan who's been let go by QPR
Utility player Jamie Mascoll who's moved on from Bolton
Reagan Ogle, released by Accrington, who can play anywhere across the back line and has looked good in his spells in the non-leagues

Dylan Duncan would be an unreal signing but if he doesn't sign for a club L1 club I'd be amazed, McNerney would be a pretty good signing too

According to the BBC, Danilo Orsi-Dadomo is third top scorer (17 goals) in the National League in his first full season with Maidenhead. The good news is that his contract expires at the end of June 2021 so Southend given its striker problems should look closely at this player.

My only reservation would be that he played just 28 games last season after 30 games the year before. Will injury proness become an issue?

Don't forget last season was cut short

I wonder if the midfielder could be a former player coming back to his roots. Good to see us doing business early though.

We got to get out this habit of re-signing previous players! New blood is what we need to go forward (preferably young hungry talented players who not injury prone)

Kane Ferdinand and Jack Bridge are both out of contract. Imagine both would be keen to come back

 

[BedfordShrimper]

Saw a few Yeovil fans commenting on Twitter last night about Murphy.
They are not happy if he is signing for us.
One described him as an ‘outstandingly good striker’.
We can hope

Not sure why but most of the Woking fans seem to absolutely hate Ferdinand. He signed a new contract recently and they were literally up in arms about it.

We can only hope ?. Looking at his goalscoring stats, looks capable of scoring 15+ next season.

Just had a look at their forum... maybe not then!

We’ll soon knock that nonsense out of him
