Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2023/24

[SELatic]

Yeah, with all due respect to Oldham I doubt very much he'd choose them over ourselves and (more likely) Pompey. Few rumours they are confident of signing an experienced player so that could put the kybosh on what we are trying to do!

Lol, yeah we haven’t got a chance of signing anyone if there’s another team interested. We’re left taking the leftovers again - Mike Fondop being our only strong rumour.

 

[Conker]

Why can’t you lot get a decent manager? Seems you’ve had a succession of muppets.

Would have thought a decent one would soon get you on the march again.

Derek Adams is a decent manager, everything goes to shit when Bradford get involved it seems.

 

[Indian Dan]

I’m starting to get the impression you don’t like Sheridan, not sure though

You can be sure. I’ve seen enough bad managers for us - but they were just crap. Sheridan was on another level. Happily carrying out Power’s plan to destroy the club. I can’t put into words how much I detest him.

He was never the right fit for us, anyone with half a brain knew that. But unfortunately nobody running this club has any idea what they're doing. Suppose that's what you get with the twitter boy playing CEO and the owner 1000 miles away.

 

[Cas]

Hornby to Colchester confirmed. Love the little highlight reel of him making two saves which are straight at him.

 

[Casey]

Bez Lubala has joined on loan, Crawley fans, how was he for you? Seem to remember him being decent. Really pleased with our additions to the forward line.

Bez is a right footed left sided attacker. He was very good for us playing on the left of a three but don't expect much tracking back. Big, quick and likes a shot from the edge of the area.

He hasn't played for about 12 - 18 months as Blackpool suspended him when he was charged with rape. He was found not guilty last week.

[Bottega Don]

Myles Hippolyte on his way to Stockport.

The one player I didn't want to go is going while the rest of the shite stay, relegate us already.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Apparently ourselves, Oldham and Pompey are after Sam Baldock.

I heard we were after him too

 

[denzel ecfc]

George Ray gone to Orient on loan

 

[Moomin]

George Ray gone to Orient on loan

Heard about this yesterday. Doubt he’d have gotten many games with Stubbs and Diabate being so solid of late.

Good player for this level and it’s a shame it didn’t work out for whatever reason.

It’s a lot harder than you think, most outside Bradford thought he would do well, obviously with his style and character if he doesn’t it was clear it would easily turn sour too.

Stop changing managers so often does help, did here anyway!

 

[The Terminator]

The only reason I can think of us signing George Ray, is that Shadrach Ogie's hamstring injury is worse than first feared.

Glad we've brought in someone with experience to cover though.

Edit: Jackett has confirmed that on loan Alex Mitchell will require surgery at some point this season - which was why this transfer has happened.

 

[dedwardp]

Hornby to Colchester confirmed. Love the little highlight reel of him making two saves which are straight at him.

He'll play the next three games whilst Shamal George is suspended, then he'll likely be sat on the bench until the summer.

 

[Cas]

Probably for the best. He's not particularly great. Here's got another year on his contract but I'm hoping someone takes him off our hands for good.

 

[Stocky]

Myles Hippolyte on his way to Stockport.

The one player I didn't want to go is going while the rest of the shite stay, relegate us already.

Is he decent then?

We don't play with wingers seems a strange one to me.

 

[The Terminator]

We're trying to sign Frank Nouble on loan from Colchester apparently - Would be happy enough with that for now, at least he has experience and can provide cover where needed.

 

[AR27]

I think we're all in agreement that we need to stop the merry go round. Problem for us is that we can't find a manager worth persevering with. Many thought Adams would be that man but his football is dire and he's a very difficult man to warm to. Throwing a young player under the bus on Saturday really has gone down like a lead balloon and I'd say a good percentage are turning on him.

 

[Optimistic Poolie]

Lol, yeah we haven’t got a chance of signing anyone if there’s another team interested. We’re left taking the leftovers again - Mike Fondop being our only strong rumour.

For your sake I hope that’s bollocks. Hard to find words to describe how bad Mike was for us. He’s a right laugh though.

 

[Bottega Don]

Is he decent then?

We don't play with wingers seems a strange one to me.

Would have driven him to Stockport myself last season but this season he has been much better.

Played more in CM this year and is our only player who seems to know how football is played.

He really is unlikeable isn't he? His ridiculous interviews really grate. He seems to really lack passion too, either that or he's just dull. Can't really tell. It's almost like he doesn't give two shits about being here.

I just want a manager that plays decent football. We've had Adams and Bowyer in recent years. Who next? Christ.

Central midfield? What type of player is he in there for you? That's a position we require back up for with Rooney going. Needs to be energetic box to box type.

He comes across as an utter bellend. Always miserable and lifeless so it's no wonder his teams play like that.

Zach Clough has left Carlisle United as he’s set to sign for a club abroad.

A disastrous signing really. Expected so much, got so little.

Meanwhile as far as incomings to strengthen the Carlisle attack. Nothing. Fuck all.

Bradford

Get Wellens in

I wanted him in the summer over Adams but got shot down on our forum. I'm not sure his stint at Donny did me any favours but at least I was half right.

 

[Richard Cranium]

We've now been linked with Jamie Murphy at Hibs. Clough has unsurprisingly had him before.

Also linked with that Biggings from Fleetwood and Nolan who's been released at Ipswich. Fingers crossed we can get Murphy at least.

1 out maybe aswell. No idea who, maybe Johnson

I cannot argue with the unlikeable aspect, definitely would wear thin.

 

[EricSabin]

Dylan Connolly has left us, pretty shocked he’s climbed a division to Morecambe. No loss really, absolute speedboat no driver.

Yeah that really strengthens our attack
