Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2023/24

[JJ1532]

Why are Blackpool letting him go? Wiki says he is on 12 goals for the season!

Think you are looking at the wrong column bud. He's scored 3 in 12 league appearances.

Barely played for the last two seasons, been plagued with injuries. Natural 'fox in the box' type of striker at L2 level when fit.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Gethin Jones rumoured to be on his way to us on loan from Fleetwood. He’s a right back and we don’t have one of those at the moment so would be good to get it done, Only problem is we already have 5 loan players so fingers crossed we might be going to try and get Sweeney in permantely.

Opportunistic signing perhaps. Don't know if we play the kind of football to provide him with chances, and you're taking a bit of a risk with someone who's had such a tough time with injury, but he's also someone who scores goals in League Two promotion campaigns and you'd expect him to score a few goals if he does get the chances.

It's pretty simple with Cully. Create chances for him and he'll score you goals, all types of them as well, not just tap-ins. If you don't, he'll still work hard and put a shift in but will otherwise be pretty ineffective. Good character though.

 

[pontoonlew]

I'd drive him here myself. Yeah, he's a bit of a pantomime villain type for us but he's never really done anything Challinor-esque to warrant us properly hating him. He can do a job for us and 100% provides something we don't have. Would be a great signing for the rest of this season. Can't see it happening unless Lincoln sign a striker though...and probably not even then.

Got this weird habit of shouting ‘c***’ every time I see the name Challinor. c***.

 

[shoddycollins]

Curle came out recently and said about the need for a target man, wouldnt be shocked to see us go for someone he knows well. Hes 35 though, considering how much he has gone on about matching a certain profile it would seem odd to spend big money on someone that age.

It's Jabo though, and last time Curle signed Jabo he started banging them in for fun.

It's because we're MASSIVE!

For us to sign a player from a higher division who this season has scored 12 goals in 3 games goes to show the rest of you minnows what we're about and we mean business.

L2 title is ours.

Signed till the end of season unsure about loan or not

 

[GTFCfish]

He's 36 today and out of contract in the summer.
He's vital to the way we play with his old up play.

I like what you did there.....

 

[Back in the DHSS]

Tranmere have signed yet another midfielder, Kieron Morris on loan for the remainder of the season from Walsall.

 

[Conker]

That’s two signings this month necessary due to long term injures to Ojenik and White, but it means we have 6 loan players so I imagine we will sign one up permanently.

 

[Stringy]

What exactly is the rule around loans these days?

5 in match day squad I believe,

 

[The_Boss]

Huge statement of intent from Macc today. Double swoop for ex Shrewsbury defender Zak Jules and Cypriot international full back Stelios Demetriou.

What the statement is making, I'm not too sure just yet.

sorry, but Jules is awful.

 

[Dan_Macclad]

Statement of desperation!

My mum always taught me that if I had nothing good to say, to say nothing at all.

she was probably right, but I think knowledge is power, and he was useless for us.

You could of at least not spoilt the surprise.

 

[Buxton Vale]

I still think you will get out of trouble, just dont expect too much of Jules.

 

[The_Boss]

I wish I had your confidence.

 

[Blue Lion]

Jules should only be backup to Cameron and Kelleher anyway. If Demetriou's any good then I imagine he'll start. Big striker needed before the window closes - does Matt Rhead still live round here?

 

[valefan16]

Jules was terrible I can’t recall the game he played for us on his debut but I’m sure he didn’t feature again?

 

[Semi-skimmed Silk]

Looks like he played 1 game, then another 51 minutes in a 2nd before being subbed off. I know some players we've signed in the past have come with bad reviews from previous clubs but the Vale forum stating "Shocked he’s still a professional footballer" and "Could be a bonus for us helping them relegate themselves!" doesn't inspire much confidence.

We were told Anthony Griffith and Akpo Sodje were both terrible by Darlington fans... Amongst others, both were decent for us, so you never know!

I can't remember the horror show he had, I want to say the 2-2 v Colchester.

 

[hellogregory]

Carlisle are set to sign Callum O’Hare on loan from Aston Villa.

He’s quite highly thought of there so hopefully if we get him he’ll be a good one for us.

 

[Si Robin]

We are apparently set to sign Jordan Tillson - thoughts Exeter fans?

Heard this last week. Personally, and this isn’t sour grapes, I really don’t rate him.

He’s played as a CDM for us and while he’s decent at winning the ball and being a bit of a disruptor type player, he offers nothing else. He has the passing ability of a National League South player and his general composure and awareness is poor. If you play him with creative players he can do a job but he’s not really L2 level imo.

I guess we’d only let him go if we had a replacement lined up so could be someone coming in for us if Tillson goes.

Have you heard if it’s a loan or permanent?

 

[Moomin]

Just confirmed Tillson now signed on loan for Cheltenham
