Stickied Transfer Rumours 2023/24

[The_Boss]

No that was "gets the ball, falls over, scores the resulting penalty".

 

[Urban]

Nah it was 'Gets the ball, physically assaulted by terrified defender(s), red card, scores the penalty'

 

[GTFC1979]

Nah it was 'Gets the ball, physically assaulted by terrified defender(s), red card, scores the penalty'

I think 'The Boss's' definition is more accurate to be honest......

 

[Judge Dredd]

Courtney Cameron is playing for our reserves tonight. Any good Torquay fans?

 

[Gulliball]

Not really. Too inconsistent to be useful as a squad player. He offered nothing at all for us last season. You should be aiming much higher.

 

[Judge Dredd]

I very much doubt we are interested in actually signing him, we had a load of random trialists tonight who seemed primarily to just be making up the numbers for the development team.

 

[EnglishRed]

At our place it was definitely the diving one.

To be fair, he looked like he's one of those players more suited to a higher level.

Could do a half decent job for a L2 side, maybe. Just needs a good run of games and confidence.

 

[The_Boss]

Got Danny Whitehead playing for us again tonight, and is actually named on the startsheet. John Marsden also named on the bench. Also have 2 "trialists" on the bench so look at it how you will that the other two have been name checked.

Is Anthony Malbon still on trial with you?

Is Anthony Malbon still on trial with you?

Alright I heard u the first time woman!

Not that I know of, not been mentioned in any of the friendlies so far.

 

[Luke Imp]

Our final signing will be either Harrad or Bignall with both getting a decent amount of minutes on Saturday in the Lincs Cup.

Harrad's probably the better of the two, but the only target man we have is Rhead so in that respect Bignall fits the bill (in theory, anyway).

 

[yellow]

Expecting a signing today, with a possibility of four players signing before the weekend.

Imagine todays will be ex-Palace midfielder Bayan Fenwick, who's just tweeted that he has signed, so it appears I'm in the wrong thread. Great.

 

[Imp in Branston]

Harrad's probably the better of the two, but the only target man we have is Rhead so in that respect Bignall fits the bill (in theory, anyway).

Bignall is only 5 foot 8 isn't he? Hardly a target man.

 

[Luke Imp]

Ah right. For some reason I thought he was a 6'+ guy.

 

[Davidimp]

Bignall is either 5'8 or 5'10 depending in which website you believe, Harrad played as target man when Rhead went off Tuesday.
If we're playing them in the county cup Saturday they'll need to be non-contract players as you can't play trialists on FA county cup games.
Tough choice for the manager as they are very different players, Harrad but only just for me as he looks more likely to get goals for us.

 

[Imp in Branston]

It's easy to get round those contract issues by signing a short term agreement. CM says in the Echo that both will get decent game time at Boston before making a decision. For me it has to be Harrad given his ex record and goals to game ratio.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Is Anthony Malbon still on trial with you?

Malbon played for Kidsgrove against us in a friendly last night!

 

[Who Needs Mourinho]

Another signing expected in the next few hours. Most likely to be a defender on loan from Everton.

 

[SamScfc]

We're signing a midfielder who played in League Two. People are saying Lewis Montrose.

 

[Who Needs Mourinho]

A year long loan deal for 18 year old Man United keeper Dean Henderson seems to be close to happening.

 

[1884 Belmont]

Rumours we have signed Marlon Jackson from Oxford City. Not putting this in the confirmed signings because we have yet to announce it, but their manager has given an interview saying we have signed him.

 

[GodsGift]

We won't be offering a deal to either Bignall or Harrad.

Disappointed with that, especially the latter. He hasn't shown much but we're in desperate need of another goalscorer.

 

[Luke Imp]

Must have someone else lined up? Maybe a loan or something.

Have you heard through contacts GG?
Not totally surprised by this when neither of them started yesterday's game.
Moyses did say in the echo he will use loan market to get someone, we have links with 3 league clubs now to bring someone from.
Who knows we are playing a Norwich XI Wednesday someone from that side may join us?

No Rob Makepeace from BBC Radio Lincs tweeted it. I don't have any contacts at the club unfortunately!

 

[Davidimp]

Ta mate not been on his twitter today, if I was CM I'd be looking for cover Rhead.

 

[SamScfc]

Can't believe Bignall is still playing. He was on loan with us about 5 years ago and I don't think he's played a first team game since.

 

[Davidimp]

He was at Basingstoke last season.

 

[GodsGift]

He's 25 but has only made a handful of appearances. He needs to find a club down the pyramid somewhere and just get 30/40 games under his belt. Doesn't look like he'll ever be a regular goalscorer though.
