Re: January 2022 Transfer Thread
Now we seem to have a L1 top end squad. Players have genuine competition for game time and have to perform every week. Promotion push?? Never imagined that but with the recruitment we have done, is the playoff a possibility? Wont get too much ahead of myself .. a game at a time.
One thing though, while the teams up top will start to feel the effects of games on their legs after their early and mid season consistency, we jus a come and fresh!!

Loan for the season. Will play alongside Luca Connell, six months younger than him.

Re: January 2022 Transfer Thread
I was pretty disappointed Darcy dropped down to such a low level. I was sure someone like Carlisle or Oldham would have taken a punt on him. It's hard to see him coming back from a spell in the Scottish 3rd tier, challenging for a place in a side in the English one.

He’d of been better off at national league. Very unfortunate for the lad who has shown glimpses here. Could well follow the Luca Connel route to obscurity.

Re: January 2022 Transfer Thread
Missed it earlier this week, but the FA released their usual figures on how much teams have spent on agents' fees. Interesting, as usual.
This is for the last two windows - summer 2021 and winter 2022.
. .
Thoughts:
Owls and Tractors eye-catchingly awful, especially Ipswich, considering they were in this division.
Sheff Wed seem to be a fiscal basket case - yes, they were in the second tier last season, but that doesn't mean they have to set fire to haystacks of cash in summer and January. The comparison between them and their fellow relegated teams, well-run Wycombe and Rotherham, is stark. Problem is, there's more Wednesdays than Rotherhams and Wycombes in that division...
Our midtable amount doesn't strike me as too bad, considering we're still overhauling. Certainly Fleetwood and Lincoln, who spent more, might ask whether they got value for money.
Another hat-tip to Plymouth, who've spent £80k (in agents' fees) to go from leaky bottom-sixers to tight top-eighters. It's doable.
WIgan's £350k is three times ours, but I personally don't think that's too bad considering they built an entire squad – and it's seeing them right.
Anyone any thoughts?

I saw Will Buckley was one of the agents we paid - he’s got some cash for nothing out of us that bloke!
