Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

[valefan16]

About to sign an international who played in the Champions League this season mate but okay by all means post your little pictures.

One of the worst Vale strikers in decades (pre Ryan Loft) big Reg Cicilia scored a hatrick in the Champions League!

As The Terminator says, Sideways Sanders played so few games because he's constantly got some sort of niggle. He wasn't good enough for L1 and Wellens has probably thought the same and seemed stuck in that PL U21 mindset with us of playing the game at half pace.

He might have shown a bit more at Orient but he's a very 'meh' player, you watch him and not entirely sure what he's good at. He's not tall, not strong, not quick, doesn't score, doesn't assist...he's just, well, there.

Interesting stuff, thanks. He does sound like quite a Crewe midfielder. I'm not sure, but I suspect his role will be to play a bit deeper and keep the ball moving more than anything else.

Cian Hayes one of our most promising academy players signs for Posh for an undisclosed fee. He's a cracking little player and you can only wish him well
Coming into the club Mackenzie Hunt, young midfielder from Everton, sounds promising so let's wait and see.Also departing from the club another academy player, Kyle White crossing the Irish Sea to Waterford, so best to him.

Bromley have signed Marcus Dinanga from Gateshead for a fee. Not sure he’ll be up to much at this level personally

George McEachran joins Grimsby from Swindon.
Played the vast majority of games last season but then Swindon weren’t the best. Any good?

Proper National League player him, not even a particularly good one. Bromley being the first to come up from NL and come straight back down again is a decent shout.

But then again they will be a hardworking team who will battle for every point under Woodman.

Nah they’ll stay up comfortably. They are extremely hardworking like you say and I can still see them having a decent home record even without the plastic pitch. They’ve got some real legs & power in their squad, and a striker in Michael Cheek who knows where the net is

What a joke Crawley are to lose literally all of their best players now.

Where's the cryptocurrency gone?

 

[hellogregory]

How am I a disgrace? I'm just explaining what's true and I'm sure Bradford fans would even agree.

Also aren't you that fan who always says negative things about us and says we'll get relegated every year? I think it's you who's the real disgrace to our club and fans spreading such negativity and you aren't exactly what you'd call a normal fan.

The fact you’re even having to ask that sums you up.

You’re embarrassing. You don’t even realise how much so, and you keep digging and digging yourself into further states of shame. As illustrated with your recent posts.

Honestly, it’s shameful that you’re associated with my club. So i’m going to ask you nicely, remove the club badge from your avatar. You have no business displaying it, you’re a disgrace to the club and an embarrassment to yourself. Please, please preserve what little dignity you have left.

 

[pontoonlew]

Crawley did this last year though, made them favs for relegation and went up. I’m not getting conned by it two seasons in a row.

As mentioned, Tyreik Wright returns on a perm for an undisclosed fee.

Wright on the receiving end of some unfair criticism IMO. Fans judging him on his spell last season, even though they know damn well he was played out of position.

This, for me, is astute business by the club. It’s another player who understands the surroundings.

When played as a front-three,or on the wing, he’s a very dangerous player at this level. He’s proven that in his first spell, which is ultimately what earned him a move to a Championship side in the first place.

Looks an interesting one, the article seems to suggest we’ll use him as a deeper midfielder which (I’m only basing this on his numbers) looks to be his better position. Definitely falls into the ‘data led’ category.

Really solid signing for me, if he's here to play in an attacking role. Hope he doesn't feature at LWB.

I like him as a winger but not convinced as a wing back where I imagine he'll be playing.

Says the so called fan who shamefully deserted his club halfway through last season just because we were doing shit and yet I stuck with them until the very end like the good loyal fan that I am.

Then you've got the nerve to tell me that I've no business displaying the club badge??



Get out of here mate!

 

[Stocky]

The elephant in the room here and Carver and HelloG are going to agree with this, is that Paul "Simmo" Simpson is under a world of pressure with the vast sums of American Dollar he's spending on forming his squad.

He goes down 0-1 on the opening day and that camera is scanning to him, then to the owners, and then back to Simpson.

Deserted the club?

You mean this forum. You clampett. I’ve probably been to more games in the second half of last season than you have in the last decade.

 

[F!RTHY]

I mean, I hear you! But we won 7 out of the last 8 games with him at LWB.

For what it matters, I think Richards will claim the LWB role - but anyone suggesting we’re somehow weaker with Wright anywhere in that squad, is deluded.

Oh yeah the pressure is on. I don’t think he’ll get the chop after game 1 unless Gillingham sink us 4 or 5 or something.

But if we’re struggling after 10 games he’ll be gone. 100%

Yep, I wouldn't be surprised if Thompson is pushed up into a two in front of McEachran. Seem to remember hearing a pod about Artell at Crewe in L2 and James Jones who was more of a Thomspon type played further up and then the holding midfielder was a bit more technical. Happy for Crewe fans to correct me on that though if I've got it wrong.

 

[Indian Dan]

You’ll not get anyone slagging McCreachan off. As said, he’s neat and tidy and a very decent midfielder. Bit on the small side, though.

 

[Agombar stool]

I really liked G Mac. Hope he does well down at the Findus Crispy Pancake stadium.

 

[Kauto Star]

I'm thinking we will have a loan player coming in for the LWB position. Maybe the Brentford lad that's being linked recently?

Really pleased we have signed Wright on a permanent and I understand a fee has been paid.

Quite a while since we paid a fee to a Championship club to secure the services of a player.

 

[Grimsby Road]

Sounds a good fit tbh we struggled to keep the ball in midfield badly last season , even if he's just the type that keeps it simple and ticking over it will help us i reckon .

 

[WilsdenBantam]

I'm hopeful our club will emulate the likes of Brighton, Brentford etc and not end up like yours.

I don't know what went wrong for you exactly but I do just keep hearing your fans refer back to the itv digital saga as still being the main reason for your downfall to this day.

Quite sad really that you're still blaming something that happened a long long time ago despite having new owners since.

Well it’s nice that a future PL club keeps mentioning us despite the conversation being nothing to do with our club, just shows we’re massive in spite of everything I guess.

He seemed to be a victim of his first spell last season where he was so good he was unplayable at times and rightly got a move to a top end league 1 club, but he was still solid in a different system playing a different role. Really don’t get some of our fans on this one, 22 year old perm with recent league 1 and championship experience who was very good at this level with us previously, would be daft not to take a pop and sign him.

 

[WhiteRussian]

Bradford fans, who is the person chosing your signings? Is it Alexander or do you have a DOF or someone deciding who to go after?
