Stickied Transfer Rumours 2023/24

[Chris FGR]

We've turned down an approach from Grimsby for our left back Chris Stokes. He's been training with Yeovil but they couldn't match his wages, but it looks like despite AP not wanting him he wont allow him to go to a promotion rival.

[ComeOnIrene]

We had a bid (unsure if loan or permanent) for a player turned down by his club yesterday and have now moved on to other targets.

I would have thought it will be a central midfielder or creative player.

I imagine that was before we signed Gregor Robertson, as we don't need another LB now.

 

[Harrier94]

Yeovil offered a five figure sum for Johnson that was deemed not good enough by us

 

[The_Boss]

Moke to Cheltenham deal now off according to Gloucestershire Echo.

 

[Clarkey_GTFC]

Stokes would have been a quality signing but I'm happy to have Robertson on a free.

That daft Twitter feed now says Luton want Akinde, but if Barnet aren't willing to sell they'd go for Stefan Payne instead!!!

LOL

 

[PBBee]

I actually rate Stefan Payne from what I've seen. No way Luton will pay enough & I don't think the big man will be that turned just yet by an offer from Luton. They weren't willing to cough up for KMB and won't meet the price for Akinde either.

 

[Lew]

Player apparently in tomorrow before our trip to Altrincham. A striker I believe.

 

[iesty wfc]

announced at our AGM last night that a left midfielder could be signing for us today

hope its not Hunt. he is ok but people would be severely underwhelmed

(awaiting Pontoonlew comment on living beyond our means...... )

 

[Luke Imp]

Simmons recalled from Boston.

Another body back!

 

[Davidimp]

No cover for midfield and the defence then, like we need....

 

[Luke Imp]

Anyone expecting much movement tomorrow?

I think they'll be something at LN5, perhaps 3 in, 1 out.

Any names?

 

[Greenacres]

Nobody in at Rovers, with four arrivals already this month (Fleetwood, Marwood, Clough and Moore). I can see one or two of the fringe/loaned (read ostracised) players leaving for good, which could include Barry, Forbes, Stokes and Vieira.

 

[Harrier94]

Marvin Johnson possibly leaving. But don't think we'll be bringing anyone in

 

[ComeOnIrene]

A journalist who covers Southend United has said we're interested in bringing midfielder Conor Clifford to The Mem.

Would be happy with that if it came off.

 

[Gashead]

Definitely.

Four Conference clubs (Welling, Aldershot, Torquay and Lincoln) also after Southend's Jason Williams.

 

[Luke Imp]

Who's he?

 

[Gashead]

Who's he?

Forward previously on loan at Chelmsford apparently.

I only mention it because it's stated in the same article ComeOnIrene talks about.

 

[The_Boss]

The Burton Mail reporting we're signing Lee Bell today.

 

[Luke Imp]

He can't still be playing, surely? Isn't he about 35?

 

[The_Boss]

32!
Never had any pace when with us last but was always an excellent intelligent footballer. Not quite sure its what we need but extra quality is always a plus.

If it happens he would be useful (would just be nice to see someone signed!), while not a defender he would make me much confident we could cope with injuries to our CMs.

Fear is that he'd be in to replace someone leaving (Turnbull).

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

Mark Blower has said we should be making at least one signing today, would prefer it to be another CB or ST over Bell.

 

[Davidimp]

Lee Beevers meant to be in talks to return to us.

 

[Luke Imp]

Beevers deal is off apparently.

 

[Davidimp]

Bugger!

 

[Luke Imp]

Or not! Sounds like it's off for a week or so as opposed to being dead.

All due to happen, but Mansfield have blocked it at last minute.
