Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

[LordJord]

Signed keeper Tom King from Salford until the end of the season. Assume that means Burge injury is worse than we thought and cant keep going with Maxted starting. Played a lot at this level so assuming there are some opinions on King.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Has he been linked to us?

Has now! It's what I've been told, but think there's also a NW club after him.

Interesting, seems like a LW / maybe a wing back so would seem like an odd one as we seem to be well stocked there. Although we have been rumoured to be interested in getting in a new LB if he can play there..

Nah, no chance he'd play left-back (he only played wing back in non-league as we crammed as many forwards into the team as possible). He's mainly a left winger but think he sees himself as a second striker type.

Lapslie at priestfield today deal looks done

Introduced to the crowd very happy with that

 

[Richard Cranium]

Swindon fans.. Whats Louis Reed like?

Had his kid with him too which I thought was nice, delighted he’s signing.

Class. Was our star midfielder last season. He's a little dynamo who has a superb range of passing. He's not really hit the same heights this season, possibly due to change of manager and possibly because he wants to leave. How much you paying us for him? (He's out of contract end of this season)

 

[The Terminator]

Heard today we're still trying to sign Jack Marriott from Peterborough, his wages apparently providing a stumbling block, but we're prepared to pay the fee Peterborough want.

Also apparently we will be buying another centre back.

Youngster Dan Nkrumah has been recalled from his loan at Welling and was on the bench today - strong rumours that he will be sold to a Championship club in this window.

Fucking brilliant last year. Shadow of that this season. Best DM in the league. God knows what Lindsey did to him.

was best mates with Jack Payne who went to Charlton and I think he was expecting a similar move but didn’t happen. Maybe got a bit sulky. Was at your game today I hear. Has 6 months left on his contract so we’ll cash in a bit now.

Lapslie being paraded around the ground before an announcement is off. I hope he does not regret turning down a chance in L1.

Louis Reed is a signing I’m happy with though, assuming that’s 100%.

 

[saddler78]

We are all working to get it over the line even Danny is
Flynn this evening which says we still want DJ and he wants to come here also.

Good player. Been off it this season but he's a very good midfielder.

Was said towards the end of last week that we’re in for Marriott as well.

 

[Brox]

We completed the loan signing of Jonathan Tomkinson from Norwich yesterday until the end of the season. Was an unused substitute today vs Harrogate. Young centre back who can play anywhere across the back line. We've needed a back up at centre back for a while so this definitely fills a need.

Fucking useless.

 

[shoddycollins]

Fucking useless.

Does he walk on the wild side?

Actually to be fair I have nicked this excerpt from our forum which sums up how the majority of town fans feel about todays transfer

"He's obviously class, but has been a shadow of his former self so getting some cash for him is very good news. Losing him would have been devastating at this stage last season. This time around, not so much."

 

[Indian Dan]

Good business, I reckon. Haven’t a clue as to how much we have got, but add on the hilarious compo we got for Lindsey and there’s probably enough to buy a decent player.

And don't forget the compensation for Williams being at the World Cup.

Presume that went towards Austin. There’s no excuse for not recruiting well now. Not that it’s a given when you recruit, but I’m convinced it won’t take much to get out if this piss poor league.

 

[Conker]

We’ve probably got quite a bit off Gillingham for Lapslie and Hawkins and will eventually sell Danny Johnson so I expect more spending yet to come.

Clough said Reed is a direct replacement for Anthony Hartigan who’s out for the season.

 

[Conker]

How mad is it that Colchester and Gillingham are suddenly the big spenders of the division

I don't know. We seem to be spending quite a bit to get out of this league.

Play like we did yesterday and we could win 15 of the last 20 which will take us to the top 3. Its Div 4 though and good players are in this league for a reason which usually means they are young and inexperienced and/or largely inconsistent. Walsall away and Stevenage at home will tell us where we are likely to end up

 

[Boz]

Rovers linked with Logan Chalmers young winger from Dundee Utd, who had been on loan at Ayr. Got pace, an asset we’re a bit short of and likely to be a development player rather than first team regular if he signs.

 

[BigDaveCUFC]

On a side note I am finding it interesting that Salford are doing g almost nothing this window as of yet.

Their first season with a chance and the first winter window they do nothing.

Ground move off, only 2000 yesterday with a £5 entrance fee, not sacked the manager yet in their annual way.

Either they decided to run sensibly or interest is waining

Heard something today that Harvey Saunders could be swapping with Ethan Bristow. Any news your end ?
