Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

[Randolph Haggerty]

Apparently he politely asked Dismal Darren why hapless Hackford was getting more game time than him.
He didn’t like that.
Hackford has been ‘fantastic’ for us.
We won’t see him again.
A real shame, seems like a decent bloke, not had a real chance unfortunately.

It’s somewhat frustrating that all of our strikers are best suited to playing in a two and only until recently the big man has been persevering with that 3-4-3. The moment he finally put round pegs in round holes suddenly the likes of Tolaj look like very good footballers. I suspect it’d be similar with Paton. Hopefully he can get some time at Dundee Utd. Not sure what it says about the SPL that a 5th choice striker at a L2 team is being sought after on loan by a team from that league mind.

Not sure how much trust I'd have in our rumours now after the Draper debacle but apparently we have 2 coming in this week a young lad from Crystal Palace who's an attacking midfielder and an as yet unnamed striker there's been a few whispers it could be Lukas Jutkiewicz from Birmingham.

 

[Dan Phillips]

Paton isn't good enough for this level, sorry.

Lovely guy, infectious personality and extremely likeable, but I think Vale fans are caught up in what they want him to be, rather than what he actually is.

You lot can now more or less put your feet up now, not a chance anyone is getting anywhere near you.

Be nice if you could play in first gear next weekend!

Looking forward to our game, should be a good one and a real test for our home record of only 1 defeat in 10 months.

What numbers will be travelling up do you reckon?

Possibly not but don’t think he has really had a chance to show either way. He’s been either out of position or up front alone.

Not sure why after spending all that money on him we’ve felt it better to swap for an untested kid from Palace either.

Hugill is meant to be well thought of at Man Utd so let's hope he can start banging them in for us!

He scored against us the other week for Wigan, a little light weight maybe but looked decent enough. Great scoring record for United youth and got a couple in League one for the Pie eaters. Looks a decent signing tbh

You may well be right, but he’s never had a fair go.
Hackford gets lots of opportunities and rarely impresses.

I thought he looked decent yesterday but if he has to play up front on his own, he may as well go back to United.

I'm guessing around a 1000 mate not 100%

Some absolute bed wetting from your lot over Draper, as though we're not allowed to reject an offer for one of our players and we intentionally started him yesterday to rub salt in the wounds (reality being we have injuries in attacking areas).

He needs to go out and get a good run of games in my opinion but I suspect our preference would be a loan.

Joint second top goalscorer so he's doing something right.

yeah looks like he needs a foil to play against. An experienced target man maybe - we just let Jon Dadi Bodvarsson go, who would have been good for that sort of role, but he's signed for Burton.

Yeah some of our fans have been a bit over the top about accusing Lincoln of playing games to try and incite a bidding war lol .
I think it's what you said you need to bring more players in before anyone goes out.
