Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window (24 Viewers)

[Cally Fedora]

It’s simple. Players that are worth having arent easy to get. We’ve no idea if we’ve bid for Woolfenden, how much, how many times, whether he’s first choice etc etc. Trust the club to get the right players. I’d rather that than accumulate dross.

[David O'Day]

We will see ….

we will and we likely won't see 2 new CBs

 

[Hobo]

We'll revisit this at the end of the window

If we sign nobody it still doesn’t prove your point. Clubs just don't publicise failed targets or deals.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Just seen Sheff Utd and Watford along with a load of other clubs linked with Kamil Piatkowski from RB Salzburg. CB and a Poland international with bags of pace so would suit our high line

Wouldnt come to us over them, and that sort of signing is too creative for us

 

[procdoc]

Wish would hurry up though just for something to talk about

 

[SleepyGinger]

McGuinness at Luton?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

McGuinness at Luton?

God no thanks

 

[David O'Day]

McGuinness at Luton?

They brought him for for up to 10m, he ain't going to be available at any amount worth of while

 

[Deity]

Well we know we have bid for Hughes, Woolfenden and enquired about Taylor, Asante etc ….

feels like one proven and one with potential to me …

 

[theferret]

Some people need to have a lie down. People clamouring for us to chuck £8-£10m at anyone who'll take it just so they can dial down their transfer anxiety. That's a huge sum. Around a third of our total annual turnover, and all of our season ticket revenue. If we'd generated a shit load in sales, maybe, but we haven't sold anyone for big money for 2 years. Maybe we have it, maybe we don't, but it absolutely has to be the right deal and not a panic buy.

 

[rexo87]

He’s only not playing at Ipswich because they have O’Shea and Greaves who are both PL quality. Woolfenden partnering Kitching would be a great pairing imo

we have only bid for 2 cbs and the 2nd only when it is clear hull want too much for the first

 

[mmttww]

Sounds like we're going after decent players in the positions we need them most with a profile that feels right for where we want to get. Down to Austin and King to get a couple over the line. Here's hoping!

 

[Rodders1]

DK could be testing all other options before going back to Hughes maybe…

the forum is still chatting over nothing Stags chests out bulls, but not one Doe has raised a head from munching grass

Calm down. We need the right players not just panic buys.

 

[jto123]

Feels pretty simple to me this. Doug and Frank may have got it wrong, they may have got it right, but surely that judgement can be made on 1st September.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Keep Bobby Thomas sign another Center Half play Bobby Thomas up front as and when, like Dion Dublin.

 

[procdoc]

Calm down. We need the right players not just panic buys.

I was being sarcastic

 

[Cally Fedora]

I was being sarcastic

You may have been. Many are desperate for us to just snap up anyone.

 

[long way home]

Wheres Doyle, where's Hughes. FFS where's Doug, oh dogs cocks im done...

 

[sc1940]

Depends what happens with Thomas, seems unlikely at the moment but no one outside the club has much idea on that. I'm sure we wouldn't let Thomas leave without a replacement already in, and we would then need another.

if we sell Thomas yes we will bring in 2 cbs but he was saying we would bring in 2 cbs on top of what we have now

 

[Matt smith]

We’ve had bids from top end championship clubs for our players too

Thought Kitching played well on Saturday

Finally someone speaking sense.

You never know what's true, what's just agents trying to drum up interest and what's just plain bollocks. Plus clubs don't have just one target for a position, there will be a list of players who fit the criteria and who we end up with will depend on what deal can be done.

 

[StrettoBoy]

In FL and DK we trust.

[SHUNT31]

Just the “lots of links to great players who then go to other teams” stuff. I don’t think we’ll get relegated!

I know what you mean. But it gets harder to replace players with quality the higher up we get so naturally will feel like we miss out more.

Doesn’t help that we seem to be shopping in the same market at parachute clubs or those with ridiculously deep pockets.

Wrexham signing Broadhead for £10m may inflate a lot of players values in the eyes of their owners too.

Bang on. We’re past the days of signing players for the sake of it. We’ve got a squad that got to the play offs last year and already added 3 players to it. We are only going to sign quality and players with potential upside. A few more quality signings in the door by the end of the window and we’re good to go.

You wanted to change the entire back 5 saturday

 

[usskyblue]

DK: ‘We’ve got Lati anď Bidwell. How many CB’s do you want?’

Ive been wondering about this. Genuine wonder. What is the market at various levels? Are there enough championship quality players out there and it’s a matter of finding them or is it quite a limited pool each summer and if you don’t get one of say the top ten then you’re downgrading?

I do think teams seem to get similar targets and there’s a bit of me that wonders if clubs buying the same data product end up with similar results as well.

I’m not panicking, I’ll be panicking on Saturday if Thomas or kitching have to come off
