Stickied Confirmed Signings 2023/24

[Luke Imp]

We have signed Jordan Burrow from Halifax, he any good?

Good for around 10 goals a season but no more I wouldn't have thought. His time at Halifax seemed to mirror his time i.e. score all his goals in the first 15 games or so then rarely score again.

He's tall, but don't assume he'll be a target man because he isn't. He's not physical or strong enough to play that role and he's not got any real pace either. He's more a back to goal striker. He'll score his goals via crosses in the box.

Auto-Kenny End: Andre Gray went for £1million.

And i don't blame you -- Never in a month of Sunday's worth that amount. Possibly in the region of 150K and that's being generous. Totally failed at Third div level. You can always bid for Ellis Harrison though.

Players never develop or change do they?
Besides it's clear that it was far too early for him to be playing at Championship/Division 1 level and that it did his career and his confidence no good at all.

Auto-Kenny End: Andre Gray went for £1million.

Aw Kenny End, bless him. Imagine him, ChrisFGR and Eastleigh fan locked in a room together and the resulting amount of squabbling over complete and utter bollocks that would erupt.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Not THE Izzy McLeod surely, I remember him always popping up on SkySports Soccer Saturday, surely better than playing at the 7th tier even now!

Yes ThE Izzy McLeod!

 

[Master D]

Up until today I thought his name was John Akinde (pen)

 

[DarkSithLord]

Well blow me down a feather we have actually signed someone.

19 year old midfielder Mark Shelton formerly of Ilkeston and a product of the Burton Albion academy

 

[Harrier94]

On top of Reece Styche Nuneton have signed Exodus Geohagan

As a player coach as well

Guiseley have signed keeper Jonny Maxted from FGR for a undisclosed fee

 

[Swedes]

Bit like Kurtis Guthrie then?

Correct. Unfortunately not all shit sinks.

 

[Sparrow]

Guiseley going for it. How are we meant to compete with their spending?

 

[Chris FGR]

You're not.

Just accept that you can't compete with clubs the size of Guiseley, Solihull and Bromley and start planning trips to East Thurrock, Whitehawk, Hungerford and Concord. Should be fun.

That is great news. All three goals at Barrow down to our rookie keeper. Superted was stuck in the floods!

Saw that on Twitter! Best of luck to him with you long term, excellent keeper and always struck me as the steady sort.

 

[GuiseleySteve]

I see York have signed Jake Charles on loan from Barnsley lol. He was on loan with us last season, didn't play much and failed to impress when he did play. I hope he plays against us on Tuesday.

 

[Swedes]

We've signed ex-Everton U-21 goalkeeper Mason Springthorpe from Northwich Vics.

 

[Blue Lion]

We've signed midfielder Laurie Bell from Swedish football. His last English club was the mighty Hyde United.

Bugger, that's another relegation spot that is now open

 

[chipmunx]

Bugger, that's another relegation spot that is now open

that's still only 3 of 4 open though.... York have reserved one place

 

[Who Needs Mourinho]

We've signed ex-Everton U-21 goalkeeper Mason Springthorpe from Northwich Vics.

Gannon raided his old Northwich side in the summer but didn't pick up Springthorpe despite us needing a goalkeeper...............make of that what you will.

 

[White Army]

James Wallace signs on loan as expected. If, and it's a big if, he can stay fit, then he's easily the best midfielder in this division. He was the best midfielder in league one when we had him and the main reason why we were top of the league for so long.

Stop signing so many good players.

I know matey, it's not fair on clubs like us with smaller budgets.

You often see poor old Dale going around in ripped jeans he's been left so skint.

Tranmere REALLY going for it then.

There's a long way to go before we can say whether this is a good signing or not. Fingers crossed it is, but the pessimist in me wants to see the evidence first.

He sounds like league one James Wesolowski that we signed with a history of injury. Played against Gateshead on the Tuesday he signed, travelled on the coach to Aldershot on the Saturday but 'felt something' after the journey down and hasn't been seen since!

Hopefully he's in the same bracket of signing as Higdon and Taylor-Fletcher.

 

[Mark kavanagh]

We are talking about the midfielder who made jake cassidy whos at guiseley now one of the standout forwards of league 1, his intelligent passing was the best ive seen at prenton park since koumas , if he plays up to his standard of 5 years ago our strikers will think its xmas all year round he can Cut a defence apart with a single pass, he can tackle, dribble and motivate......
