Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2023/24

[ProfessorGreen]

Daniel Johnson rumoured to have been spoken to by Celtic, Norwich, and a side in the US.

There's a disgusting rumour about us looking at Max Power on a free from Wigan, another of Ryan Lowe's Scouse/ Wirrall mates. This jobs for the boys shit is becoming a joke, if that one happens. I wouldn't be shocked to see Cole Stockton rock up here either.

Preston fans not happy with Lowe? Tired with the media buzzwords facade yet?

His football is dog shit, that's enough for me. He is a gob shite though.

He's winging it at this level. L1 manager.

 

[SF_]

Daniel Johnson to Stoke supposedly and Ben Woodburn heading to a L1 club.

I knew Alex Neil would be all over DJ.

 

[SF_]

Ben Woodburn's extra year was activated because he played enough games, and the club sneakily just included him in our contracted players list because they knew there would be fan outrage about it. The guy is a fucking gash, and i'm praying he isn't the benchmark for this summer's recruitment.

In talks with Johnson, Brady, Cunningham, and Onomah. Although DJ is pretty certain to leave to get paid what he's worth.

This weeks rumours are Scott Wright (Rangers) and Ali Al-Hammadi (Wimbledon).

Sonny Bradley to Hull City. That would probably be an ideal move for him - his hometown club. That said, I thought Hull would be looking at someone a bit of a higher level considering their ambitions.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

It was mooted that he had said he wasn’t keen on Hull any longer, so be interesting to see if that actually happens

It's certainly a strong rumour, but very hard to understand. We're getting rid of Figuereido because we need centre backs comfortable on the ball and good passers, which Bradley isn't. I think Rosenior will get a big say on who we sign and he knows a lot more than me so who knows. I still think it won't happen though.

 

[BelizeHatter]

He is both those. He just turns and accelerates like a tank.

If there was a fault with Sonny it is his speed but he is good on the ball and lethal in the air.

 

[BelizeHatter]

Not sure what Hulls aspirations are next season. Maybe not up to Sonnys ;-)

........... but hes good enough for a middling Champ side in the centre of a three, if both either side of him are quick on the cover. Hes actually reasonably quick once hes moving. Hes a leader and with regualr games and confidence up his touch and passing are fine, his reading of the game is excellent and as said he is dominant in the air and good for set piece goals and assists.

 

[BelizeHatter]

The with regular games comment is that when he first comes in hes not up to speed and a little error prone, so not sure hes a decent backup sub etc. He needs a run in the side to see his best...... Id imagine hed be a killer at L1 at a canter.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

He needs to play in certain systems now, he’s never been athletic buts he’s lost a little of what he had and he cannot play any longer in a high line 3 at the back formation where the centre halves are asked to aggressively challenge, often into the midfield which is what we do at the moment. In a 2 with a screening DM in front I think he’s still got it.

Not sure where the impression has come he’s not good on the ball though, maybe because he’s tall? He’s got a great pass on him and pretty comfortable with the ball at his feet overall

I was basing it on the recent game against us, when he was noticeably worse than our centre backs in both respects.

 

[LeonTheGreen]

No real rumours yet of anybody that were interested in, just that Ennis has to decide between us and Blackburn / Swansea pretty much.

Apart from Plymouth, those are not choices they're sentences!!!!

 

[BarrieOwl]

Rumour is Jamie Vardy wants a swansong at his home town club

 

[BelizeHatter]

You survived the playoffs then. Cant have been good for the ticker

 

[LeonTheGreen]

Rangers fans seem to think Scott Arfield is signing for us. Can’t argue with that, need the experience. Just hope his legs haven’t gone.

 

[SF_]

Supposedly set to sign Calvin Ramsay on loan from Liverpool. 19yr old RWB who they signed from Aberdeen for £4m+.

 

[SF_]

Whats the maximum amount of loans from one club? linked to Bobby Clark from Liverpool as well now.

 

[BarrieOwl]

2 isn't it?

 

[SF_]

Seen a rumour saying Sheff Wed want Jordan Storey permanently, i'd snap their hands off if they gave us back our £750k.

 

[SF_]

Calvin Ramsay confirmed on a season-long loan.

Happy with that, sounds like they expect big things of him.

[geg1992]

This forum seems very quiet! Here's a rumour for us today. Ellis Simms for around 3.5 million.

 

[SF_]

Not seems... is.

If it wasn't for Luton fans, there would have been about twenty posts in this section last season.

 

[Tea Towel]

Seen a rumour saying Sheff Wed want Jordan Storey permanently, i'd snap their hands off if they gave us back our £750k.

I’d be happy with that as well.

Should be coming into his prime in the next couple of years and will only get better playing every week.

Guy hasn't improved since he was 20, I just think he's really thick. He was a regular for us this season. Best description I've read about him was on our forum the other day:

"Nah, he's shit.

If I was 58 and ate corned beef hash more than once a week I'd probably love him, cos he wins headers and makes slide tackles.

But positional awareness is awful, he gets bullied by physical strikers and he's awful on the ball. Get what we can for him and move on."

That said, I don't think there's much in the rumour unfortunately.

Haha, fair enough! Can only judge from what I seen of him in L1 for us but that might be his level by the sounds of it.

He's fine as back up, but unfortunately for us we have him and Liam Lindsay starting most weeks.

Sounds like we've backed out of a deal to sign Scott Wright from Rangers. Hopefully a better target has become available and we're not quibbling on price.
