Stickied Confirmed Signings 2023/24

[WokingTillIDiet]

The 3rd story about the Carlisle players, is that after training with us for a few days, Chris Todd didn't think they were going to improve our squad so didnt want them & sent them home. 3 versions of what happened, believe which ever you wish.

If that has come from your manager, then he's basically calling your chairman a liar?

 

[Eastleigh Fan]

It certainly doesn't bode well for the manager if he is going on record (post match interview at FGR) and coming out with a conflicting story to what the owner had told the fans on our own forum.
We certainly need more players & yes we need defenders, as well as midfielders and a striker and a goalkeeper, maybe.
I don't know if these 2 were good enough or not, but they are no longer training with us, so i guess that's that.

 

[Joe.]

Preston Edwards recalled from his loan spell at Boreham Wood and sent to Dulwich Hamlet for the rest of the season.

Horseshit, when you consider Brandon Hall has been fucking horrendous.

 

[Harrier94]

Ty Williams has signed a contract extension with us. And Jordan Tunnicliffe has gone on loan to Sutton Coldfield for a month.

 

[Sparrow]

We've signed Ipswich's U21 captain Joe Robinson on loan. Cover for Brian Saah, who got injured (shock) on Saturday.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Unsettled Southport captain Luke Foster has left and signed for Harrogate Town

 

[Joe.]

We've signed teenage midfielder Billy Holmes from Derby. Has been playing for their U21s this season. Along with Reiss Greenidge, looks like McMahon is looking to the future. Greenidge already out on loan at Hemel.

 

[I Blame Paul Mayo]

One of our young lads Elliot Hodge has gone on loan to Trinity in the north. Been on loan at Stamford in the league below and done pretty well apparently.

 

[Davidimp]

Unsettled Southport captain Luke Foster has left and signed for Harrogate Town

Got subbed just after they 2 down at our place Saturday.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

We've signed Ipswich's U21 captain Joe Robinson on loan. Cover for Brian Saah, who got injured (shock) on Saturday.

You're getting Matt Butcher from us. Can play anywhere along the back 4, or as a holding central midfielder.

 

[Sparrow]

Yeah was about to say. An 18-year-old, on a one months loan. Not really sure why we've added another defender/midfielder but we're coming for you Grimsby.

 

[Harrier94]

Arthur Gnahoua has signed a contract till the end of next season, cracking news for us 8 games 3 goals from the wing.

 

[Andy Harrier]

Welling have signed a former Sierra Leone captain who is banned from playing in the Netherlands over match fixing claims regarding a benefit game in 2009. He was also among 15 players and officials suspended by the Sierra Leone FA in 2014 over match fixing allegations.

That stinks of total desperation.

 

[les.gtfc]

Forward Pat Hoban signs for us on loan from Oxford United until the end of the season.

Here's hoping that he as good as our current Irish frontman.

[GodsGift]

Hurst loves a loan signing, doesn't he?

 

[The_Boss]

We've signed John McCombe until end of the season, fairly happy with that, always been solid enough defender when coming up against him mainly at Port Vale. Thought he would be older than 30 as well.

 

[Blue Lion]

Also pretty pleased with this, although it probably means that Neill Byrne's out for a while after coming off on Saturday.

 

[Harrier94]

Adam Dawson now signed for Nuneaton

He apparently wasn't allowed to sign for another National League club nor a league 2 club because he's a free agent outside the transfer window...huh?

 

[Luke Imp]

Yep.

If a player is released outside the transfer window you can only play at North/South or below. To play at this level, he'd have to have been released before the deadline in January.

 

[Harrier94]

Ah okay never knew that

 

[StagsForLife]

Craig Westcarr on loan to Southport until the end of April. Have fun with him. Decent player when he wants to be but he is the laziest player going.

 

[EnglishRed]

Westcarr and Bishop

 

[CTFCfan99]

We've signed 21-year-old keeper Jonathan Flatt on loan from Wolves to replace the injured Dillon Phillips.

 

[Swedes]

I remember him from the decent Kettering side from way back, and he tore us a new one back then. Maybe time has taken it's toll and he's become lazy with it? One thing Dino doesn't seem to tolerate is laziness, so it could be an interesting few weeks.

 

[Shotsfan1993]

We have extended Pavey's loan until the end of March which is good news!

 

[EnglishRed]

We've signed 21-year-old keeper Jonathan Flatt on loan from Wolves to replace the injured Dillon Phillips.

We had him last year. Not bad. About what you'd expect from a league youth keeper.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

We've signed Ritchie Sutton on loan for the rest of the season. Any Tranmere fan got an opinion?

 

[White Army]

Good player, looked solid at the start of the season and always giving out instructions. Was never going to get in the team now though with Mcnulty and Ihiekwe playing so well amd Hogan and Riley as backup.

All the quotes from Paul Cox suggest he will be playing at right-back, and that it was Lee Vaughan that's forced him out of the team. From what I recall he's a good, solid defender and probably more the type of player he wants, rather than a 5ft 5 winger-turned-full-back like we have now.
