Stickied Confirmed Signings 2024/25

[DarkSithLord]

Ben Tolitt has signed for AFC Fylde

 

[Raymondo316]

Signed Reece Hall-Johnson from Northampton on a 1 year deal. Is he any good?

Hes no doubt improved but when we had him 4 years ago he looked out of his depth at National League level.

 

[Optipez]

Pools sign Tom Crawford, I’ve heard he’s both shit with a bad attitude and also a talented player so who knows?

He's a very tidy footballer, his instinct is to always go forwards,rarely loses the ball and I was very sad to see him leave us. He'll come into his own this year as he's a physically gangly lad who's taken time to grow into himself.
He has the happy knack of ghosting in late and wouldn't be surprised if he nets you a few either.
He needs game time, a run of four or five matches that we never gave him to bed into a team.

Ben Tolitt has signed for AFC Fylde

He was such a talent

 

[Stocky]

It's a fantastic signing for Hartlepool.

Had I heard of him before this afternoon? No. But I don't know anybody in this league. He sounds like he has the credentials going off the lads on here who've watched him and I trust their judgment.

He'll be on a hefty wage for this level I'm sure but its the Hartlepool owners' money and he should spend it as he wishes.

In the Excel spreadsheet I have created that will be revealed before the start of the season, I have just entered John Crawford to the formula and it has bumped up Hartlepool.

He's interesting because he looks both like a 14 year old lad and a 70 year old grandad at the same time. Pure talent IMO.

 

[Master D]

Good solid player should do well for you would have liked to have kept hold of him but he was only on loan and went back to Grimsby, you lads seem to be obsessed with former Chester players

Sounds ok. With Reckord at LB seems we might have 2 decent full backs.

Well it goes both ways. You've got a Louis Gray, Kevin Roberts and Danny Livesey still on your books havent you?

Almost as if the geography based rivalry is a bit of nonsense

 

[Like a Glove]

We’ve signed midfielder Jack Clarke from Aston Villa. No idea.

tollit any good?

 

[EnglishRed]

tollit any good?

He was really disappointing last season, just never looked interested or fit.

A fit and in form Ben Tollit is excellent.

 

[Back in the DHSS]

tollit any good?

Was brilliant when he burst on to the scene with us a few years back. Was brought back from a bad injury too early and suffered a reoccurrence. Not been the same since.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Matt Tootle has signed for Boston United

He has a very poor attitude. That's why he's now in the Conference North when his actual ability is much higher than that. If he wants to then he'll tear it up down there, but he doesn't have the drive to do that.

 

[Fedora Dale]

Fiacre Kelleher, our last contracted player has now left the club following relegation. Zero players, zero staff, zero money. Zero point bothering anymore.

Fits in with our policy of signing players from Cork, and we could do with another CB (a 16 y/o midfielder played part of the second half against Stockport in that position). Wouldn't surprise me if we were interested.

 

[Luke Imp]

Matt Tootle has signed for Boston United

Boston seem to be signing well again, albeit lost a few as well.

Jordan Burrow signed the other week.

So did Connor Dimaio

 

[EnglishRed]

We've signed Jordan Davies on a 2 year deal following his release from Brighton.

They signed him from us originally before he'd actually made an appearance for us, one of the best youth prospects we've had for ages. Very pleased with this signing.

seams a risk free signing as he should be better than he was before he left you and knows the set up there. Not being a striker means you can't ruin him either....

ls it right that the TNS academy seams to get most of the talented young players in north Wales these days?

Possibly. Teams like Connahs Quay seem to have strong youth set ups too.

The best youngsters from the Wrexham area go to the Liverpool and Manchester clubs.

TNS can definitely pay more than us, at least they could while they were guaranteed to be knocked out at the first stage of the Champions League Qualifiers.

The Wrexham Academy historically has a big reputation, but it appears to be getting tarnished more and more.

Interestingly, Shrewsbury, Swansea and Inter Milan have all set up academies in North Wales in recent times, so there must be some talent here!

Also worth noting we've had a fair bunch of North Wales youth products over the years in our Academy. The most famous being David Vaughan and Rob Jones (From St Asaph and Wrexham respectively, though the latter pledged allegiance to England)

Another good signing from Keates. Shame he doesn't know how to manage init.

He does sign good players generally and to be honest our business so far has been a lot better than I expected.

It pains me to say but perhaps you boys are about to turn a corner and turn things around, some very good signings and perhaps you could try and be a little more positive.

 

[AJS]

We’ve just announced the signing of Tom Bradbury. Any good Yeovil fans? Looked like a bit part player for you from what I can see

Yeah, he didn’t play much, but didn’t do anything wrong when he did. Left footed, which is always useful as a centre back, and decent in the air. I’d have liked to have kept him as backup but he won’t be the big miss that some of our fans are making out. He wasn’t as good as our 1st choice pairing.

 

[iesty wfc]

As Solihull dont have any fans this one went under the radar

They have signed Stephen Gleeson, last of Aberdeen, and played for MK Dons and Birmingham City.

That Solihull fan who posted on here must’ve sadly succumbed to his devastating crack habit in the end.

Gleeson was a v good player not so long ago. No idea if he’s had injuries etc?

Joseph something wasn't it.

He conveniently appeared when they were at the top of the table and they then blew it so hasn't been seen since.
