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

State of play lineup with Simons and TSL included, and Collins still just about here. lineup-builder.png Thomason for Randall without a shadow of doubt. And I suspect Forino with Toal. Johnstone left back as it stands. We will go for a big physical team not a bunch of midgets. I don't want Thomason...

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

Pete O'Rourke reports that the Sharman-Lowe deal is done, although I guess because he's currently in Slovakia with the 21s that might not get announced yet.

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

Yes, I speculated earlier in the week that an incoming midfielder might signal a departure in that area, Bob. I still believe that will be the case, but couldn’t call who it will be.

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

Where does that Collins money go? We still need strikers and wingers. Would Ennis fit the bill and work up top with Dalby? Or do we invest in a couple of wingers who are fast and can cross? £700K won’t go far. Might cover the wages of one or two decent frees or loans. But I guess that it frees up a...

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

We are absolutely terrible at extracting decent fees. A soft touch. Have been for years. It's no wonder we continue to lose such considerable amounts without improving the team. Let a player go for X, replace him with a worse play for X+ addons and agents fees Getting £700k for Charles wasn’t bad.

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

If a 20 goal striker is going to be available for around the £1 million mark, I can see Cardiff, Wycombe and maybe one or two others in L1 who might be tempted, along with a couple of Championship clubs. I suspect an MK Dons opening bid and an acknowledgment that we are prepared to sell, might well...

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

He wants to get into the Wales squad, that isn't happening in L2. Stranger things have happened in football but I'd be very surprised if it happened, and it would need to be a L2 record signing and some, for me. If they offered to double wages I’m sure he’d go in a heartbeat. Money is by the far th...

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

Iles reckons MK Dons are in for Collins. If they are offering £1M I'll drive him there myself, the lazy git. I’d want double. He’s 28 and never played above league one. He’s not worth what we paid for him. Now that’s very different to whether we should sell or not. For me the question is can we rep...

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

Sorry DSB, I noticed the error in my original post. Conway said he thinks he’s best as a left back, but is happy to play wingback. The interview with him is actually quite a good listen. Comes across very well, other than outing himself as a Yoonited fan. https://uk-podcasts.co.uk/podcast/the-railwa...

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

I listened to an interview Conway did with a Crewe podcast recently, and he said left back isn’t his best position.

Edit: autocorrect on my phone. Conway said that left back IS his best position.

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

Huddersfield sign Roughan. #bwfc hashtag melts down. PNE site links us and Wigan with Will Keane. Shame regarding Roughan, he sounded a better option than Jacob. Surely we now don’t need Will Keane? Jacob has an option in Switzerland so is looking tough. The amount of interest in him suggests we ar...

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

The BN is linking us with some lad called Xavier Simons. A Hull midfielder who was on loan to Wycombe for a few months last season. Is he the Gandalf "Thou shall not pass" type of midfielder we've been lamenting? The Hull website describes him as a defensive mf who can also play at centre half and ...

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

Is Dan still injured?

Regardless, I think he has next to no chance of playing regularly for us next season. Hopefully we can find a club willing to take him on loan and cover his wages again, but I strongly suspect we might have to do some subsidising this time round.

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

Four-year deal caught my eye Yeah, he better be good… A four year deal for a lad who's 25 and relatively unproven is actually quite a massive risk. I get that we've probably beaten out competiton from the divison above due to giving him a longer deal, but I really hope we don't get burned again here.

Two slots left for overage outfield players? Not much wiggle room.
