    Oldben got a reaction from DCFC1388 in Conor Washington - signed on a two-year-deal   
    In a 352 formation, we probably need four strikers. If Washington isn't a first choice player I think he's not the worse signing.
    I doubt he will score 15 goals in a season.
    He's not a direct replacement for mcgoldrick.
    He's not going to be a game changer.
    He has previous league one experience.
    He's an extra striker.
    He's not better than alfie may for example.
    Hia style of play is known by Warne, and therefore probably fits what Warne wants to do with the team.
    Hes not an inspirational signing.
    He's a player that I doubt it's a hard fought battle to sign.

    31 years old. Six goals last season. Five before that. Not exactly edge of your seat stuff 🤷‍♂️

    I guess you missed the part in the 2nd link, so here it is "Therefore, Warne should be pursuing a new goalkeeper in the summer and with Josh Vickers out of contract at Rotherham United, he may opt to bring in someone he knows very well."

    I mean one of them worked for Warne before so I don’t think anyone doubted he would sign here.
    Ward is a more promising sign that players might actually want to come here. It’s still only a player turning down league one offers though - we had players turning down Championship clubs for Rosenior. Let’s see what the rest of the window brings.

    I'm not sure we'll go for both Bradley and Flint. Both the wrong side of 30 and basically play the same role in a back 3.
    Also, I think we'd have the slowest defence in the league with Cashin - Bradley - Flint 😂
    Not seen many clubs linked with Sam Smith, formerly of Cambridge, either. He'd be a good addition.

    Who said anything about big names?  I'm talking about proven league one / championship players who are available on a free and are an upgrade on what we had last season.   I don't think you need to be a big name to be better than Smith at right back or better than NML and Barks as wingbacks.

    Based on what Warne got out of last year's squad this approach would fill me with dread.  I'm very much of the opinion that we need to be bringing in more effective players than we had last season to improve on our 7th placed finish.  Based on names suggested by other posters there appear to be plenty of decent league one and even championship players who will be out of contract.  If we can unearth a gem from Scotland, Ireland or non-league then great but I'd be gutted if that was all we were trying to achieve this window.

    Well, thank you so much for your insightful remark. It's obvious that we've discovered the forum's Kevin Hart right here. When we can just reply with an emoji, why bother having lengthy conversations about future transfers? The next time I have the audacity to publish about transfers, I'll be sure to keep in mind your smart comment. Keep on thanking us with your emoji criticism; it certainly raises the bar for this conversation. You are a true example of contemporary communication.

    I thought this was the thread for that type of thing? Rumours from those sorts of sites/Twitter accounts/punters down Ben Osborn’s pub/my mate knows Warne’s milkman? The type of thing that is lacking the sort of credibility that would be placed in the actual transfer forum but might be worth a discussion to pass the time of silly season until anything more credible happens.

    Would Ruben Rodrigues be a good signing. If so let's spend the entire transfer budget allowed by the efl on that player or someone similar.
    Priority number 1, a new striker.
