Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2023/24

[Fedora Dale]

Evatt looking to loan

Would not surprise me to see Ronan Darcy rock up at your place until the end of the season Evatt looking to loan him out-

Ronan Darcy played against Dale (and, unlike his colleagues, had a shot which had to be saved) in a Central League Cup game today. Finished 5-0 to Dale (Charman 3 goals, another disallowed and an assist) although to be fair there was only Darcy and Delfonueso whose names I recognised in the Wanderers line up.

Wouldn't mind Darcy on loan, but we are reasonably well stocked in midfield and have five loanees already.

Josh Hawkes on a permanent now. Tranmere getting ambitious.

What a day we’ve had. Two players who are comfortable League One standard and have both signed 2 and a half year deals. All this positivity is getting out of hand!

We disbanded our u23/reserve team when we entered administration. Mainly our u18 team out today.
Darcy has been out on loan in Norway and would do a good job in lge2
None of the others are ready for league football......Delfonueso may offer something to a team desperate for a forward/winger

We've sent our captain on loan to Solihull - Mark Ellis has played his last game for us. I'd say he's still good enough for this level but his lack of pace was exposed a few times in the last couple of games he played, and I think Cooper felt let down by him throttling the Bristol Rovers player.

We've got Ntlhe back tonight for his first game of the season (I think) but he's not the answer so I reckon we'll be in for a loanee.

I was expecting him to be in the starting line up tonight!

Hartlepool linked to our keeper Richard O'Donnell, who is now 3rd choice following the loan signing of Alex Bass from Pompey.

He is a good shot stopper, his weak link is being glued to his line for crosses. He likes to blame the defenders for every goal he concedes.

Any female Poolie fans on here?, well he will be your best looking player if you sign him

 

[shoddycollins]

Dynel Simeu, a 19yo centre-back on loan from Southampton.

Another teenager from a Premiership team, so feels like a straight swap for Dinzeyi, however he has at least made Southampton's bench this season and Millen's previous loan deal for a premier-teen looks decent so fingers crossed. He's apparently 'highly rated' so I presume we've beaten Barrow to his signature.

That said... not sure that we really needed another centre back.

He can’t be any worse than the two we’ve had between the sticks this season.

Obviously not highly rated enough.

We did. Maybe not to go in the starting 11, but we if Feeney or McDonald got injured which they both have history of, we’d be left with square pegs in round holes
Whelan is not a centre back no matter how hard he tries, just isn’t physically capable and gets bullied. Thankfully Millen has quickly seen this.
And with Mellor out long term we were down to 4 fit defenders, so it was important se brought in some cover.

I hope if we are targeting a centre forward we won’t be looking at the PL U23 kids. We need to take that position seriously instead of the cheap skates way.

 

[Gassy]

Signed off in style with probably the best goal of his 11. (the Northampton one was a belter also) it will be very interesting to see what Ipswich do with him next.

Agreed, I will actually keep a keen eye on his career actually

I quite liked ROD when he first came to the club, but he seems to have really lost his way. Likeable guy though, always seems to be up for helping out the Bradford community. Wish him well if he does go.

 

[Conker]

Seems a bit meh to me based on his record at Carlisle. Maybe suitable for the other clubs mentioned but we’ve already got two U23 types on loan up front and not really keen on us adding another.

Clough dismissed this.

FFS.
We've already got one & for rid of another one like that.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Meant to be making several signings today/tomorrow, wonder how many will be loans.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Richard O'Donnell wouldn't be a bad signing as far as I'm concerned.

Apparently in for Omar Bogle according to some on Twitter. He'd be just the type of forward we need.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Bogle would be the ideal narky brick shithouse we've needed since Richie Barker, probably too good to be true.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Our calendar won’t be worth buying without O’Donnell

He'd be a cartwheel signing in comparison to the other forwards we've had this season. But yeah he'd fit us perfect and would play every week.

Whether he'll join for 300 quid a week is another matter.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Can see why he wants to leave what with all you predatory pervs on here looking for a bit of man love.

 

[Bottega Don]

Sounds like Liam Feeney is coming in after he left Tranmere.

They paid him off so that's why he's accepting a huge pay cut I imagine and the Keith Hill factor.

 

[Luke Imp]

DearneValleyRover will tell you more on Bogle but I'm pretty sure he's constantly injured and can't be arsed anymore?

Technically not too bad, but his legs have well and truly gone.

With that review he sounds like a prime candidate for us.

Ah just what we need when we never control the ball in the game

Well it's obviously not us. Who could it be?

Orient at a rough guess. Suppose could be Salford also.

Hearing a bit of talk about Bryn Morris from Burton as well, lads from the town. However, apparently wages have been the sticking point so far.

6 figures for any player at that level is madness. Decent enough player but pretty inconsistent for us (not helped by Doidge coming back just when he was in form) but did nothing at Cheltenham.
