Transfer News, Gossip & Speculation Transfer Thread - Summer 2025 Edition.

[Desperado]

May well have missed it but are we still interested in Dion Pereira or have we moved on? Can’t see he’s signed elsewhere yet

Very interested, but believe he’s holding out for an EFL move. If he doesn’t get one maybe we have a shot.

That kind of thing could be going on all summer. I'd therefore be very surprised if they're not talking to other options, which may leave him high and dry.

This. If the club are looking at top end Conference players as targets then it makes sense (to me at least) that these players are also capable of playing in Division 4 ............ and therefore it may take some while for these players (or rather their agents) to consider options from prospective F.L. clubs as well as us.

Best to get the kettle on and settle down for a long summer I say.

He’s done nothing anywhere else since leaving anyway. Wasted talent.

30 appearances in the SPL with relegated Ross County. Went on their forum a while back to see what they thought of him and they seem to love him. Which made me think even if we did want him back, there’s no chance. SPL is probably about L1 standard overall, so think he’s well out of reach.

I know this is the transfer thread for Southend United but seeing Maldon and Tiptree mentioned I thought I would post a link to this interview, he might have lots of dosh but he hasn’t got a clue about football https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0lk8rn8

But what of his 5 year plan? (yikes)

Well that was a painful listen! Doesn’t have a clue who any of them are and wants 2 or 3 year contracts for their 35+ year old players to feel secure

Sounds like another football club owner we all new very well

At least his field is in decent condition!

 

[Yer Blues]

First words aimed at me in a year. A timely predictable cheap shot. So sad.

Sorry you are right.
Your Lopata post was really highbrow.
I was wrong.
I look forward to more cerebral comedy on the cast.
Sincere apologies.

Wouldn’t wait for him, if he doesn’t want the move them we find someone who does want to play for us. Sod him.

Good move all round for him that. Newly promoted NL side where he should get minutes and a bit closer to home. Wish him all the best.

Thought he would drop down a division! Brackley being part time makes sense for him though.

 

[Ricey]

Good luck to him.

 

[CaptainSmudger]

Agreed.
I rate Bonne. He works for the team.

He does, but he misses too many chances. Single figures only if fit in a full season. OK for me as a squad player and option off the bench.

Go the extra mile if you want them …. Or move on. Yes when EFL moves don’t materialise they will suddenly look around the NL…the best opportunities there may have moved on, tough. If you wait weeks for these types to make a decision our own target 2,3,4,5 ft disappear. We are not sloppy seconds…

 

[kentblues]

But we know he can be prolific, so we know he has it in his locker. Even at Championship level. What is more promising someone who has been prolific even at a much higher level and is still in his twenties, or someone who has never been prolific ever, or someone who is currently hugely prolific in the South Bedfordshire Conference and hasn’t eaten in weeks…

 

[Piledriver]

The problem with signing Spasov is that he was about the rumour on this thread.

Only

Elliot thorpe? Luton academy player, scored against us for solihull last season. I hear his misses family live locally?
