Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I put Sheehan into the central midfield pot because that’s almost exclusively where he’s played for us. That’s not to say that Schumacher won’t try him further forward, but did he ever try it last season? Genuinely can’t remember. He didn't. Maybe because we had so many 10s :D But then I've said ma...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Not sure we need to hit the same squad compisition as the last few years. There's plenty of "attackers" we could still dump. We also seem to be reading into an "accidental" flash of some magnets on a white board... But yeah, couple of sides would now be good. It's not the whiteboard tea-leaf readin...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Something down the sides would be nice! Still got a fair few to shift. Imagine Sheehan would be one, the oldest and least versatile of those midfielders, bit agree they probably all have their price. Sheehan's value is the one most likely to drop quickly. His contract ends in 2027 (like Thomo and M...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

It seems certain that there are a lot of moves still to be made. If Ceesay were to join we'd again be at our overage, outfield squad limit, yet would only have one recognised left back (who's never played above tier 4), one recognised right back, one fit centre forward and three players who might b...

You wait ages for a signing, then nine come along at once... Nine debut pro contracts signed by Julian's young Whites, who you imagine will now be the backbone of the B team. All 18, they've completed their two-year scholarships. . Screenshot 2025-07-01 at 17.51.00.png . Left to right: • forward Dae...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Tucked away in an article on midfield options, Iles mentions that Ceesay wasn't in the squad for Norrkoping's game last night. But, before we all get a bit giddy, he wasn't in the squad for their previous game at the end of May, so probably nothing in it. Talk from the Swedish side is that the agen...

They're also losing Rami Al Hajj, a Swedish midfielder (how curious!) signed last year.
Aye. Fan reaction seems to be divided between "Trust Tom" and a few fearing double relegation.

But then, we've absolutely no room to talk on deeply divided fan hysteria...

Didn't Marc Iles say that Schumacher is now looking to bring in experienced cover? He wrote: "It now seems likely that Steven Schumacher will bring in some more goalkeeping cover, although the club also intend to take a good look at Luke Hutchinson in pre-season to see whether he is ready to act as...

Re: Pre-season 2025

First couple of B-team friendlies announced:
• Atherton Colls (a) on Sat 19 July (the day the first team play at Hibs)
• Longridge Town (a) on Tue 22 July (the night the first team play at Shrewbury)

Seems slightly curious to play simultaneously, but I'm sure they know better than me

Just told my daughter that there's bad news, that it looks like Luke is leaving. She looked up briefly from her tablet, said "oh", and returned to her game. Crisis averted, then... She thinks she's got it bad. I'm running out of opportunities to do my Angel of the North "Look Southward" joke Anyway...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Rumour's strong enough for Iles to do a story on it, although nowt from the club yet.
