Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2023-24 (Part 2 - Back in Business)

Who do we expect to leave.

Obviously those not under contract who are surplus but do we expect anyone to go for a fee. What sort of fee would you allow the following to go for?

Colin maybe 100k
Cards the same
Gus 50-75k
Miley 50k
Kensdale 100k

Personally wouldnt want to lose any of them.

Considering we got (from what I understood) 200k-ish for Dalby those figures seem a tad pessimistic to me.

I think you have to look at who purchased dalby. Wrexham have resources beyond most wildest dreams

Considering what we are paying for players from the league below, this is massively undervaluing our players.

This is the type of signing we need to give us the next push just hope we don’t miss out due to another club going in for him .

 

[Andyhsufc]

If we got a decent offer in for Colin I would take - excellent player but always feel you can replace goalkeepers a little more easily than other positions. Would be particularly keen if we could invest the money in McCallum

 

[Callumturner22]

Set up a good fund me to help push the transfer over the line I donate and I’m sure many others will too

31 in July . Would rather keep cards if possible

15 months older than Paul Mullin. It worked for Wrexham.

Why not hope we can sign McCallum and keep Cards?

Might not be on the... erm... cards, but that would be great if possible.

did he play with Cav? Maybe Miley can have a word in his ear

Gus working his magic!

Think he joined after Miley left. I do believe there's a friendship between him and Gus though

He would’ve played with Miley during his first stint at Eastleigh.

True. Forgot he'd been there before

Answer: I don't expect any of those listed to leave. As you say I would not want to lose any of them.

Uncertainty remains - the key issue being the sale of the club of course.

For me, there is very little evidence to date to substantiate other elements being mentioned such as a reduction in the salary budget or interest in players from other clubs.

It's early days. I shall sit on my hands & wait.

I don’t expect any of them to go this summer.

It makes no sense to sell a first team player in your plans (and under contract for at least a season) for as little as £50k.

It’d likely cost at least that to replace them (agents fees, signing on fees, transfer fees etc).

It would probably need to be a transfer fee of at least three or four times that to be even worth considering and there won’t be many clubs happy to pay that for NL players.

The maths maybe changes a bit by January if you’re going to be losing the player for nothing in the summer but for now they are likely worth more to us chasing promotion than they are to any buyer.

Collin is maybe most likely to be an exception to the rule. He’s likely severely underpaid relative to the squad and his importance and so might start agitating for a move. He also probably has the highest value due to the scarcity of keepers who can play out from the back. A new L1 manager wanting to implement a modern style of play would need a keeper like him (and a centre half like Kensdale). Whilst most academy players play that way there aren’t many available who are tried and tested in senior football.

I’d still say Collin is more likely than not to start the season with us.

If we could get a marquee in like McCallum with 90% of last season's squad alongside the new ownership then gates could increase dramatically.

Really hope they’ll look at the North West and maybe share the north bank…. add the fan zone with the non-football ideas then hopefully there will be a fair bit of revenue to reinvest

If they want gates to increase dramatically they need to invest in the ground rather than the squad.

We were already bumping up against the capacity second half of the season - and that’s without a Ron style marquee signing.

The worry is that the takeover isn’t completed in time for remedial works to be arranged for this summer.

It’s all gone very quiet on that front. Can’t blame the Consortium for that. I wouldn’t want to be paying for works on an asset I don’t yet own.
