Transfer Window January 2024 Transfer Window Thread

[Front Post]

According to Wiki ‘On 13 January 2022, Blackpool signed Dale, for an undisclosed fee, on a two-year contract’

Slightly odd if true to have a contract running out in January?

2.5 year deal

Blackpool sign forward Dale from Crewe

Blackpool sign Crewe forward Owen Dale for an undisclosed fee on a two-and-a-half-year contract.

Wants a striker that can play wide, is that Marriott?

Oh please God no. Just no.

So looks like the winger & striker we wanted to get done are close.
Goodwin back in training next week so in the squad for Blackpool. Harris could do well as a winger.

My transfer odds

Chip n Dale 90% or Loanee Winger 85%
Marriott Hotel 80%
Loanee Box to Box 45%
Loanee GK 45% or (rolling) out of contract GK 50%

I thought you were angry that we hadn’t signed Marriott. Your angst is very confusing

 

[WokinghamYellow]

I would have though both Harris and Burey are strikers that can play wide

Where has Dale been playing this season?

Blackpool/ winger.

 

[Royalstandard74]

Blackpool fans seem complimentary towards him, seems he's be out of favour with Chritchley and wasn't really given a chance.

 

[battman]

Blackpool/ winger.

Well, more left wing back being played out of position, which is why he’s out of favour at Blackpool. If he comes here though, he’ll be used as a right winger.

Where has Dale been playing this season?

Owen Dale played in a right sided wing-back role against us last October

 

[holdsteady]

Buckingham said that he wanted players who can fit into 4-3-3 or a 3-4-3 so Dale fits that as a winger/wing back.

I was referring to the another "wide striker"

 

[uptheus]

Blackpool/ winger.

Has he played many games this season?

 

[RgYellows]

Is it just me that doesn’t have Marriott as someone who can play out wide?

 

[ECYellow]

Marriott & Dale are two good additions. They add experience at the level and appear robust enough, having both played lots of minutes this season in league 1.

It’s slightly concerning that we are again not signing players with and physical presence about them (Goodwin the exception). Marriott is 5’8” and Dale is 5’9 but hopefully that will not prove costly and we can address it in the summer.

Kudos to the club, not a whisper getting out about Dale is really impressive.

23 games

Shame it was leaked last night, it would have been one hell of a surprise to see him announced without it

I am a little surprised that Blackpool are prepared to let us have Dale.

Agree entirely. We really do need to address the physical presence side of things though in the next window.

Wonder if there may still be a further surprise given not a single person had an inkling about Dale?
