Stickied League 1 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

[Indian Dan]

People can say what they like about Power, but he's nobody's pussy.

Wouldn't be too despondent if Byrne goes for about £800,000 or so

 

[Shrimpurh]

We signed Luke O'Neill on one month loan from Burnley - he wants to make it perm very likely I reckon.
Stephen McLaughlin 2 year deal from Forest.
Glen Rea very likely to sign on loan from Brighton today, highly rated.
Just need another striker and we're done

 

[Fedora Dale]

Nathaniel Mendez-Laing becomes our fourth hyphenated player under contract (signed for a year).

Was he any good for Posh/Blades

Doubt you will get any good reports on him from Posh fans. Talented but overweight and can't be arsed would be my educated guess.

 

[RavenBish]

Stephen McLaughlin 2 year deal from Forest.

Sorry to hear this. I wouldn't wish that shite prick on my worst enemy. Please stay strong and pass my words of support on to your fellow Southend fans.

He was alright here on loan last year, bit hit and miss but when a hit he was quite good.

 

[LS Bantam]

Devante Cole set to sign for Bradford City according to Sky Sports Pete or whatever he's called on Twitter, normally a good source. Opinions from Barnsley/MK fans please?

With footballers, they seem to work at one club and not at others. That's not the case with NML. He's seemingly been shit wherever he is.

Saddler is right with him being talented but not arsed. Overweight isn't strictly correct. He spends a lot of time in the gym, so he's very top heavy.

I'm surprised he's found a League club to be honest, let alone one at this level. He could be a real quality player if he knuckled down and sorted himself out, and I have no doubt he'll have said to the club website that he's focussed on football now and wants to make something of himself, but every club he's been at he has said that, and all of them shipped him back to us afterwards wanting nothing more to do with him. We finally had enough and released him and now he's there.

He has great pace, and he can beat a man (although sometimes he'll go back a further three times to do more stepovers), his final ball can be good, but it can also be horrific, but what would you expect at League One level?

If the penny has finally dropped, he'll be a very good signing, but I can't imagine it has. Still, as long as you have a Nandos and a nightclub with desperate women, he'll be happy.

We are set to sign a striker from Leicester, Stankevicius or something like that. On loan I presume.

 

[Fedora Dale]

Thanks.

NML played pretty well in the opening game for Posh against Dale a year ago - gave us all sorts of problems. Keith Hill no doubt remembered this - and loves a "broken toy" (Donal McDermott, who does seem to have extracted his finger and has arguably been our best player so far this season, being the latest example).

IF he comes good, then he's potentially another Holt/Lambert/Murray/Buckley/Le Fondre/O'Grady/Hogan/Done who would command a decent transfer fee. If not, he'll end up on loan at someone in the Conference.

A gamble, then, but they've come off before.

 

[Fedora Dale]

You're at Bury this weekend, aren't you?

Cue the second hattrick in a week at the Giggenpark Stadion for a little known Leicester player

Brentford, the Wendies and PNE linked with a move for Ginger Pirlo.

Hopefully Town will tell them to do one following the sale of Connor Goldson to Brighton last week.

 

[LS Bantam]

Devante Cole, 2 year deal confirmed (plus an option for a third year)

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Signed Cameron Stewart from Ipswich on loan which appears to be something he does every season, we need someone who can play on the wing so no problem with signing him

Yeah, that Alan Nixon tweeted it yesterday, probably bullshit tbh. I'd be delighted if we got him.

 

[RotherhamDale]

How on earth have Bradford signed Cole?! He must have had championship offers.

 

[Freakyteeth]

Jak McCourt from Leicester

 

[3Loggerheads]

He will cost quite a bit more than the 600k being quoted on the PNE board.
With the Goldson deal done estimated to rise to 950k and a sell on clause (Matt Williams on the local radio) I think Shrewsbury will drive a hard bargain for Woods!

 

[Bottega Don]

Forgot to mention it but we signed Murray Wallace on loan from Huddersfield, no idea if he's good.

 

[Robert Molenaar]

How on earth have Bradford signed Cole?! He must have had championship offers.

Money talks.

Type of striker we've needed since selling Wells. Hopefully he can hit the ground running and our season can finally start!

 

[finley]

Fantastic signing for this league

 

[SF_]

How on earth have Bradford signed Cole?! He must have had championship offers.

Don't know about that, didn't see any Barnsley or MK fans raving about him last season.

Looked gash against us.

 

[Cas]

Yeah I don't see the hype either. People getting excited because he's Andy Cole's son.

 

[valefan16]

Jak McCourt from Leicester

Strange one with our midfield so strong at the moment and O'Connor is to come back. Can't see how he'd get in the side!

 

[RotherhamDale]

Ripped us apart for Barnsley last year when he played left wing.

 

[JoshBCFC]

He's nothing big. He was a sub for MK Dons last season in League One, how on earth was he going to get Championship offers?

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Ripped us apart for Barnsley last year when he played left wing.

That's Paddy McCourt

 

[RotherhamDale]

Yeah, Paddy used to play for us years ago. Supremely talented.

After Cole's performance last year it looked as if he had a great future. Maybe not though, as others say.

 

[dedwardp]

Tony Humes said on Thursday that we were 'very close' to signing a striker and were waiting on his decision, then yesterday after the game said it was Devante Cole and that he had chosen Bradford (obviously). We had a deal agreed with the club. Need to bring in a striker before the deadline, as we only have Bonne and Porter, Porter has been out injured and Bonne isn't a lone forward, nor capable of playing that role alone at 19 years old and with his build.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Ritchie Wellens was left out of our squad yesterday as he is reportedly in talks with a Championship club, who the fuck is that desperate?
