Transfer News, Gossip & Speculation Transfer Thread - Summer 2025 Edition.

[TSG]

Not sure of the contract he was on but this deal could be to make sure Oxford get a decent fee for him.

Would still be in the hunt I think if wanted, a League Two position would certainly be helpful in that respect!

Regan Linney, from Altrincham, is set to sign for fellow National League club Carlisle. Definitely would have taken him here.

 

[RHB]

James Goulding has signed a new deal at Oxford.

Any relation to James Golding?

Any relation to James Golding?

It's his slightly more upper-class cousin.

All the best,

Prof. Alan S. C. Ross.

Agreed. That's a statement signing at this level.

Grimsby also rumoured to be in the hunt for Linney.

 

[RHB]

Agreed. That's a statement signing at this level.

Yeah, he can punch Gus playing for Carlisle rather than Altrincham. Mind you, Neither Gus, nor any of the team will be around after we win on Sunday.

 

[Hazey]

Mitch Pinnock leaving Northampton, apparently wants to be closer to home. Very much been Mr Reliable for them for a few years. Could be someone we take a look at as started his career here.

 

[blueveined]

Now confirmed -
Carlisle United Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Regan Linney from Altrincham FC for an undisclosed fee.

 

[Beefy]

Pity about Linney - probably out of our price range regardless of what division we are in next year but a man can dream.

Agreed, and at 28 probably not fitting our recruitment model.
That being said, we were in for Ollie Pearce last summer when he was the same age.

 

[BEERMONSTER]

Also I think he very much favours staying north so would need a move to EFL and a significant financial inducement to tempt him South

 

[Shrimper83]

Wonder if we were ever interested in Linney and because the Play Offs we've missed out? Northern player so wouldn't expect him to come South but would of been a great signing

Yeah I think the northern factor is huge, doesn’t seem like the sort of signing we’d make all things considered so doesn’t seem like one who got away (unlike Pearce last summer).

 

[SUFCGoals]

I was under the impression that James Goldings current contract that he signed two years ago was up to the end of the 26/27 season.

The news article makes it sound as though he's signed a one year deal as his contract expiring?

 

[Shrimper95]

Any rumours around? Danny Cashman coming in or nah?

 

[amsemp]

Carlisle have probably paid silly money for Linney who at 28 has very little re-sale value. It’s risky, but could be a good signing if he does the business. FGR threw money around last summer though in the hopes of getting back to the league first time of asking and the gamble didn’t pay off. Don’t mind them at all as a club, but still hope Carlisle get battered everywhere they go next season purely because of Mark Hughes’ arrogance in his cup final comments.

When do people on here think we will announce the first permanent signing?

Mid-June, if I had to guess.

July
