2026 Summer Transfer Window - Stairs - 26-01-2024
Latest:
Will we be building a Championship Title chasing team or a Division One Promotion outfit - that is the question (It is February just now).
Eric Ramsey might still be the manager if the former is the situation but if relegated we might be also searching for a new manager as well!
The Summer transfer window starts Monday 15th June ans closes 31 August.

Fellows signs contract extension
RE: New Transfer Window Thread - Baggievicar - 26-01-2024
Thanks for the work you put in, Stairs.
Really good news about Tom Fellows.
Brereton-Diaz has gone to Blades or someone, I think, so no hope of that one from your list of strikers.
RE: New Transfer Window Thread - Blue Baggie - 26-01-2024
Good news Tom has signed a new contract, hopefully this will put of the clubs looking for a player on the cheap.

Papers say "Abada has had a better goal-scoring record in Scotland compared to West Brom's Grady Diangana, and his potential arrival could provide a fresh and exciting attacking option for the team"
I don't recall Grady ever playing in Scotland

I can't say this story has me brimming with excitement, reading most of the pundits it does sound unlikely to happen. It also reading between the lines, sounds a little as if he 'may' be feeling some effects of the situation in his homeland with Rogers saying he has had "to put his arm around him a bit". I would also ask is one goal and two assists in eight games in the Scottish leagues anything to write home about.

"A better goal scoring record then Grady"
That's not worth mentioning - Grady averages 3 a season which IMO is a joke.

Sorry that is incorrect in the 4 seasons Grady has been with us he has averaged 6.47 a season, which could be worse when technically he is not a striker, he has 5 already this season.

Callum Marshall has signed for rest of season

Now that one has a lot of promise, sadly he is cup tied, so no hat trick against the Dingles that would have been a great start, especially with Dike out again
