Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2023/24

Is he definitely on trial for Barrow then, or is he just doing county lines?

He's on trial IN Barrow...

I wonder if a certain local "Journalist" will be involved...

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Apparently we’re looking at bringing Charlie Adam in. 34 now, but played 21 games in the Championship last season, mate of Evatt’s too. Still has ability for this level.

 

[White Army]

*Coach.

That’s ok then

This the one you lot ran out of town? Cos 'she gone done said things that made my head hurt'

 

[dannyc5]

Of course it’s not ok. I hope you are not accusing me of condoning child abuse? Just because I think your fans arse licking of Palios is weird, doesn’t therefore mean I support Barry Bennell and the way Crewe acted. That would be an utterly bizarre correlation, and very, very strange for you to even suggest it.

If Charlie Adam is only 34 I’d hate to see what he looks like when he’s 54.

There’s tough paper rounds and then there’s that!

Was it Charlie Adam that Tony Pulis punched while naked?

Think that was James Beattie.

Adam is past it now but his experience and knowledge would be worth bringing in regardless.

We have this morning signed Gime Toure from Hartlepool on a 1 year deal.

I know he was a target back in January. Any views pools fans?

on his day a world beater, full of trickery and capable of scoring worldies. On another day, nothing comes off for him then starts sulking and looks disinterested.

Challinor fell out with him at Fylde so there was no chance he’d keep him here. He gets through a lot of clubs which suggests his attitude is questionable.

Not sure he’ll do a job in L2 bearing in mind he was consistently released by NL clubs. Ability wise he’s easily good enough but that’s why everyone takes a punt on him. None have yet to come off.

Like Soup says, some days he’s a world beater who’ll skin defenders for fun and poke it in the top corner from 20 yards, other days he can’t be arsed and will be the most frustrating player to watch.

I liked him at Pools, he is rapid and full of tricks, flicks and stepovers, he’s no centre forward, wide man all day, worth a punt on a one year deal.

I keep accidentally referring to him as Djimi Traore

Ha!

Gime was at Sutton in 18/19. Started off great, then got progressively average and more disinterested. No-one at Sutton was particularly sad to see him go. The Pools fan who mentioned a possible poor attitude is probably very on the mark.

What is it with strikers who were a flop at Sutton ending up in the Football League this summer?

Seemed disinterested a Sutton and Hartlepool just means he's yet to play for a proper football club

 

[Luke Imp]

Was he not as bad as I remember then? Seem to remember before you were decent, him costing you a fair amount of points.

Overall he was decent enough for us but he did have really patchy runs of form. I don't think anyone ever felt fully confident in him. Having a Cowley defence in front of him definitely helped because he wasn't called into action to often. Always seemed to have a brainfart when we played Luton for some reason.

 

[Son of Cod]

Fixed your post for you.

He won’t be as good as Glennon though obviously.

irrational and mostly gets thing wrong hellogregory: LOL how can you say Glennon could be one of the best left backs in the division when you haven't seen them all? I can categorically say he would not be.

sensible Grimsby fans: Have you seen Glennon play?

irrational and mostly gets thing wrong hellogregory: No...

 

[Chief Rocka]

12 goals in 34 from out wide for us, Challinor and him didn't get on at Fylde and he had a pet lip on when he was appointed at Pools, posted a picture on his Instagram with Hignett who signed him and captioned it, 'BEST MANAGER' probably needs to grow up a bit, clearly talented but his attitude isn't great when things aren't going his way.

 

[F!RTHY]

James Norwood to Valley Parade doing the rounds on Twitter. This actually comes from an Colchester fan who says he has a “credible source”, but won’t reveal - typical.

Interesting.

 

[Chris FGR]

Makes sense that a Colchester fan would know I suppose.

Would think Nors could do better tbh.

Now that would irk the bindippers

Arguably an upgrade on Vaughan.

Streets ahead of Vaughan

Can I get a translator here please?

If it was 2016 yes there might be an argument to be had. I was always a harsh critic of Norwood at FGR, thought he was a bit wishy washy, went missing, etc. However, there's no denying the leaps and bounds he's come on over the past three or so seasons. Should be plying his trade at a promotion contending L1 side.

Which makes me think we don’t have a cat in hells chance.

It would be a great signing for sure.

Pretty obvious no? You (hellogregory - an irrational poster who gets things wrong all the time) criticised us (Grimsby fans - sensible and rational) for saying a player could possibly be the best in the division in his position because we don't know enough about the rest of the players, yet you have never seen said player play. I just find that interesting.

 

[shoddycollins]

Can I get a translator here please?

It's not easy but it generally goes
Fans of other clubs: Sorry, can you explain what you mean by that.
Grimsby Fans: GY GY GY Fishy GY GY GY
Other Fans: Sorry you're still making no sense
Grimsby Fans: GY GY! Steve Livingstone! GY GY Cleethorpes
Other Fans: I give up
Grimsby Fans: GY

 

[Conker]

Nice to see Evatt is already rattled from criticism about Bolton transfer policy.
