Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

[Grecian O'Grecian]

Like most others I've seen plenty of youngsters come through our academy down the years, but he easily had the best natural talent I've seen. His touch, control, movement, skill and weight of pass all superb for an 18 year old.

He made his debut for us in Febraury 2017 away at Stevenage, scored the following Saturday on his full debut in a 4-0 win at Newport and was sold to Brighton 13 games and 3 months later if I recall, 2 weeks before we was due to start our season for around £300k I think. We was all gutted, he could've made one hell of an impact in the National League. Rumour has it we sold him because our previous owner owned part of his contract, but that could be nonsense.

He can play as an attacking midfielder or on the right wing, in the short time he played for us he would glide past players with his skill and pace, he left a few of them on the arses eating mud alot of the time.

Like most youngsters though, very lightweight and a few opponents had to resort to kicking him a few times.

I will be curious to see how he does for you, because he should go on to have a very good career based on what I saw from him.

We've just signed Tristan Abrahams on loan from Norwich, started with Orient. What should we be expecting?

Sounds like we won't be topping the fair play table this season

Tristan? Fucking la-di-da

 

[Conker]

Will Atkinson has been taken off the transfer list, he’s a good technical player but you get the feeling his legs have gone a bit, but he’s only 29 so he’s probably always been like that.

Paul Anderson, Paul Digby, Zander Diamond, and Calum Butcher still up for grabs. I imagine all of them can do a good Job for a L2/lowerL1 but they are on all huge wages so it’s hard to shift them.

 

[jacobncfc]

We’ve signed Nathan Thomas on a season long loan from Sheffield United. Don’t know a lot about him myself.

 

[PaulHaddock]

That is an excellent signing.

On his day he is unplayable, really great to watch and too good for this level.

His day is about 1 in 6/7 games.

Absolute bell end but a good player for this level, you just had to get another in after Noble didn’t you!

 

[ShrimpsMeltdown]

Jordan Cranston signs on a one year deal, released by Cheltenham.

Tbh we were one short tbh and sadly lacking in the bellend department , once major bellend Noble had left so this was needed.

Does he have pace? That’s what I want to know

 

[hellogregory]

Lewis Walters, released by Notts Forest, is apparently on trial with us. Don't know much about him but he was on loan at Barrow last season.

Is this Slow Sports News?

 

[Indian Dan]

We’re doing the ‘who is that in the pic’ thing at the moment. Unfortunately, to me, it looks like JET. Hope I’m wrong.

 

[The Terminator]

We've just signed Tristan Abrahams on loan from Norwich, started with Orient. What should we be expecting?

Another one from our very successful youth setup that season, who were unfairly thrown in at the deep end to try and save us.

Not as naturally talented or as good as Steve Azalte is. But he has potential.

He scored around 50 goals for our youth team in two seasons, he made his debut in our 4-0 away win at Newport in Feb 2017 and in truth probably should've played a lot sooner. 13 appearances, 2 goals and 5 months later like Steve Azalte he was sold to Norwich. Again rumours his contract was owned in parts by our previous idiot owner, but again it could be nonsense.

He was loaned back to us straight away, but within a month we cancelled it. Norwich apparently had him only training with us once ot twice a week and expected him to play for us on a Saturday, we told them no and cancelled the loan which was a shame.

He is left footed, very quick, quite strong for a youngster and works hard. He scored a peach of a goal from 25 yards when we beat Hartlepool 2-1 in April 2017. His other goal was a tidy close quarters finish in a 2-2 draw at Luton. I saw him score 5 goals in a 10-0 win at Burnham Ramblers last summer as well.

He will go on to have an ok career at least in the game, not sure he will go beyond the Championship myself. But he has the potential to do well at this level IMO.

I look forward to seeing how well he does, because when he was with us he was surrounded by mainly youth team players in our first team, he did do well though I thought.

 

[hellogregory]

Notts County and Exeter looking the strongest for next season in my opinion

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Our midfield doesn’t look very strong !

Goalkeeper / Defence , should be as strong as last season .


Forward line looks much improved

 

[Casey]

Josh Lelan who left us has joined Aldershot. I reckon he would still be ok at this level so Aldershot should be happy.

Mo Sanoh has left Crawley "by mutual consent". It seems he got an offer from a Rumanian top division side and decided to risk not get paid and we decided he was never going to play so it made sense to let him leave.

We have been freeing up quite a bit in wages and rumour has it Alex Kiwonya might be getting some of it..

With Vaughan and enzio incoming..... should be reet

 

[Chief Rocka]

We’ve signed Nathan Thomas on a season long loan from Sheffield United. Don’t know a lot about him myself.

What most have said, simply unplayable on his day and for us his day was here more often than not, will torture some of these League 2 fullbacks, quick, full of tricks and scores some worldy goals, proper narky sod at times, you’ll love him.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Thanks chief. Just want we need, a tricky pacy winger#gamechanger

 

[PaulHaddock]

Don’t think he’s that pacey.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Don’t think he’s that pacey.

I mean he’s no Usain but he’s pretty quick

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Don’t think he’s that pacey.

Not this again lol. We’ve already had that regarding someone we haven’t signed yet , at least this is a confirmed season long loan.

Pretty quick will do me just fine

 

[Si Robin]

Jordan Cranston has signed for Morecambe.

Can be a very good player, and was for half a season whilst with us (in 2 and half seasons). Suffered a nasty hamstring injury last season though and looked back to his original dreadful self when he returned.

That being said, I felt he deserved another deal at Whaddon Road to prove himself and see if he could reach the levels of the start of last season.

He'll get a decent reception when we play Morecambe next season.

 

[Casey]

Just in case you missed it.

Josh Lelan has signed for Aldershot.

Sorry

Casey

 

[George Reilly's Hairpiece]

But Doidge would likely require a fee three or four times what we are paying for Akinde.

{Unsure sarcasm territory} He really wouldn't {Tiptoe out of sarcasm territory}

 

[Chris FGR]

Josh Lelan has left Crawley and signed for Aldershot

 

[Soup Ladle]

Thanks chief. Just want we need, a tricky pacy winger#gamechanger

Good player and good lad could easily do L1. Dont know why he didn’t join us as we have signed a full back from Rochdale for him to play in front of. disappointing but it is what it is and we go again.

 

[Son of Cod]

Has anyone got a Josh Lelan update?
