Latest Rumours January Sales Thread

[Spaceman Spiff]

Whilst I appreciate that centre-mid is not a position of need for us right now, I like the look of Max Kretzschmar at Woking. Wouldn't be surprised if he has suitors in the FL.

He was released by Wycombe when they were in League Two, having been there for several years. I don’t think he’s anywhere near our CMs but a League Two side might fancy him

The worst time for a club like ours to do business is in January. There is plent of rubbish in the sales but prices often go up in the football store.

We aren't going up and even if we don't sign anyone we wont go down.

The only position we need is a number 9....that's it.

For extras I would swap McC for another Championship forward. Bring in another CB on loan to cover for the recovering Lennon and Kyp.

By and large I agree, although I also think we are too weak on the wings so I’d like to see some movement there to help create the chances we need to do better and help keep the pressure on the opposition to relieve our defence

I have seen him a couple of times this season and have been more than impressed. Not sure why it didn't work out at Wickum for him, but could definitely do a job in the FL.

Marcus Forss on loan from Brentford. That will do me.

I’d love to get Mo Eisa!

Been out injured a while with an ankle ligament injury.

Sounds just like our sort of player.

For those talking budgets, don't forget SCP said in his statement that Ron and the board have agreed to bring forward their summer plans ie; budget IF the right players are available. Also SCP has said they could look at loaned players on a short term with a view to sign

I imagine much of our business will be done towards to the end of the window when PL and Championship clubs have done their business and know who they're willing to let leave on loan or on a free (ie Ladapo last season).

They are going to large in Faliraki?

Has Ron found the War Chest yet?

I presume it's not for the famous naturist beach

Bless you!
Expect a loan or two from Premier/Championship Clubs, young guys (like McGoalshy) who need a bit of experience, with a couple going out to balance the wage bill.

Actually, despite being down to the bare bones of a squad we are doing quite well, and 3 points on Saturday, will ensure we go into January comfortably mid table

 

[SeaSideDoughnut]

I can't see too many leaving at this point. Hopefully McCoulsky will go back to Bristol. I don't mean it in a bad way. But he isn't what we need, and whatever resources are being used to have him here could be used better.

I wonder if we'll inquire about signing Bunn permenantly. That's probably one of the best signings we could make in January. As some others have said January isn't the best time. Clubs mostly, like us, want to unload the players that aren't preforming.

Maybe if Mr Bunn was offered by Bury, and that is definitely a possibility, then he may be worth a gamble, but his injury record isn't great with us so maybe we need to be cautious. Mind you, I'm saying that from a position of ignorance. SCP and his boys will know exactly what he is capable of and if they rate him then go for it.

 

[Thundersley Blue]

With Bunn though, I think it has been mentioned on here before that he is on a very high wage at Bury. Should that be right, he may well be out of our price range. We have to resolve the forward issue be it short term or long term.

I hope not! The last thing I need to see on my hols is Ron's 'little Ronnie'...

I think the question here, and it's a very valid question which I think most SZ Users would agree needs clarifying and dealing with before the conversation goes further and I am sure you are aware that truth and honesty prevails but for the sake of curiosity please inform the board and get this out in the open so without doubt or misinterpretation and for the good of all ....



......... How do you know Ron has a little Ronnie ????

They're only minor injuries though, nobody's immune. With Bunn, he's a very muscular person. I have a friend that used to play for West Ham ladies. She became a PT and started bodybuilding. After that she more injury prone and always said 'more muscles, more problems'.
