Transfer News Summer 2023 Transfer Window Thread

[RyanioBirdio]

Brannagan too technically

Brannagan was here first. Signed while Clotet was manager.

 

[JC_Yellow]

Holmes (crocked), Carruthers (crocked), Kashi (clinically insane), Fosu (good).

And if we're going to be pedantic about it...Marcus Browne (twice), Nathan Holland, Liam Kelly, Gavin Whyte...

Is there a story here I've missed? Thought he was quality tbf

Didn't the Summer Transfer Thread famously get to 100 pages+ last year before we'd signed anyone? We're on 3 by page 30 already! Genuinely remarkable what a change-up this has been. Incredibly refreshing.

It was a lot higher than page 100.

He was a nutter, but our nutter

No story. He was just completely insane. He’s the only player I remember seeing get themselves sent off having already been substituted (Walsall away). His first game back after suspension (Charlton home), he got booked and then celebrated a goal by smashing the ball out of the stadium with a drop kick, which the ref let him off with for some reason, and then the game after that (Shrewsbury away) he got a straight red card.

Went back to Troyes after his loan ended and was immediately isolated by his parent club for unspecified “disciplinary reasons” and didn’t play a game for six months, before being shipped out to a team in the French third division.

At least he was a character.

But he was a great short passer! He hardly ever gave the ball away. Maybe we just saw a little purple patch and he wasn't always that good.

Chelsea are releasing; Derrick Abu, Prince Adehoke, Nathan Baxter, Juan Castillo, Bryan Fiabema, Joe Haigh, Henry Lawrence, Sam McClelland, Silko Thomas, Ethan Wady and Jayden Wareham this month. Some decent players in there

Baxter is a very decent keeper. Could be worth looking at. That Fiabema is an explosive one as well, could be worth inviting those two in.

Yes but other than Kashi, Fosu, Carruthers, Browne Whyte, Holland...
What did the Roman's ever do for us....

Me too

 

[Yellowmania]

Watched games at the Manor - there won’t be many current players left who can that I’m future!

He can chat to Sam Baldock about it when they’re on adjoining treatment tables.

Holmes (crocked), Carruthers (crocked), Kashi (clinically insane), Fosu (good).

Josh Murphy too?

 

[Grumpy Git]

Interesting that LM appears to be targeting players he has worked with before (if it's true he's after Cumming as well). I could be wrong, but I don't think KR brought in a single player he had worked with before. Apart from Sam Baldock, who presumably signed as he had no other options . Probably tells you a lot about how KR was viewed by players.

Robinson probably couldn’t bring players in he’d worked with, because they didn’t want to work with a blathering, blithering scouce t**t.

Baxter already turned down reading as he won’t play league 1 football

Testing your Bazzerese Dictionary?

I’m blaming the heat. That or Bazmosis is actually real, as we all feared.

He was actually very good. A Charlton ST holder friend of mine said he was rather 'temperamental', but an excellent player.

Haha! I might have missed a few then. I just assumed that no-one who ever worked for him once would ever want to repeat the experience.

No opinion on his ability, he was merely absolutely crackers.
