    Missing out on targets

    Posted by Melbourne Hat on 30/7/2025, 9:33:43

    We have been linked with at least the following:

    Lowe
    Kelman
    Al-Hamadi
    Gbode
    Morris
    Dodgson


    ...and so far not secured any of them.

    Kelman went to Charlton, Aberdeen told us to do one for Morris, and it seems Stockport will be getting Dodgson and even Lowe seems likely to go to them too.

    That leaves Al-Hamadi, but will he want to drop to L1? Our bargaining seems to be pretty lowball so far so not confident on him either.

    Zero clue about Gbode.

    So, were (or are) we genuinely in for them, or just shit at getting deals done for positions we desperately need replacements for?


    I see a story yesterday with MB proclaiming 'the search is on for a replacement for Alfie'

    Presumably that search has been on since the final whistle at WBA? Can't have come as a huge surprise.

    Maybe we have some Kinnear'esque 'irons in the fire' that will materialise.


    Here's hoping.

      Loans for kids from clubs in the north are much less likely to happen for us than for other northern clubs

      We're not really missing out on them when that's the main issue and it's not the club's fault

        A lot of rumours are started by players' agents.

              How much is it killing you to not say?

              I imagine it was like me doing chassis development work on the last Focus RS and knowing that there was a rear diff. while reading Pistonheads speculation about whether it would RWD/AWD.

              When you say we've been linked with......basically some spotty virgin in his bedroom has typed out something on his badly stained ipad.

              Bit like the old days when reporters would throw a dart at some post it notes to match a club and player in a transfer gossip column.

                Maybe you are right. It's a mystery to me how these things start to be hinest.

                Apart from the bid for Morris, which appears to be genuine, all the rest could be just AI generated bollocks.

                No concrete evidence for any of it.

                  Yet, you're stating it all as fact and using it as a basis to have a fucking whinge.

                  What the actual fuck?

                    Not stating it all as fact at all. The only one on that list that seems to be true is with the lad from Aberdeen.

                    Maybe could have worded it better.

                    'There have been unsubstantiated rumours on the internet linking us with...' would be more accurate.

                    So, wondering if there is in fact any truth to them or not.


                    Anyway, we'll see what else happens between now and when the window closes.

                      Kelman is quite likely to have been one but hardly a surprise he went to Championship.

                      I imagine a list of target players could be up to 50, so hardly a surprise to miss out on quite a few, just something else for people to whinge about now that the kit is on sale.

                        Agreed on the target list - we will have multiple options on the list for each position. We might even sound out their clubs to get an initial idea of what a deal might look like, and to ask to be kept informed about other bids so we can jump in if needed. But that doesn't mean that they are top of our list. Maybe the ones we have seemingly "missed out on" were 2nd or 3rd choice, and we are confident of getting our 1st choice? And maybe not - but we'll probably never know. Just get behind the players who we do sign, I reckon.

                          Most of the players that came in were not linked with us prior to signing. The lad from Exeter and the three unveiled in Slovenia had not been linked to.my knowledge.
