Rather than have random posts dotted all over SVs, let's put all rumours, speculation and comments about actual signings posted under this one header.

Certainly going to make life easier for some....




NB: The title of this thread has been altered several times. The moderators (or rather Posh 'cause it was his fault) apologise to all for the strange posts at various times in this thread and to Christies Child for any questioning of his credibility, sagacity or headline writing skills.

Please get your transfer rumours out here whether they be true, implausible or ridiculous in a Dean Howell rejoining level of ludicrousness.

Does that include suggestions for possible signings too? If so, your Billy Kee thread has just contradicted what you said above....

Billy Kee thread posted before this thread was suggested. However YES.
Maybe I should transfer Kee to here.

I think 1 thread for transfer speculation is a good idea.

I agree. Loads of other clubs' messageboards have a single thread for transfer speculation.

I'll throw one in the ring, and I'm stunned he's not been mentioned before, but Andy Bond of Barrow. 24 year-old very highly regarded midfielder and been watched by, amongst others, PNE and Carlisle. I expect him to sign for the latter but one I would hope we would have watched.

Another is Tim Deasy from Barrow, who I think will attract interest from League 2 clubs. Decent keeper who didn't get to prove himself at Macc or Stockport but has been good between the sticks for Barrow.

Paul Scott, defender released by Bury and was rumoured as a target in the January window.

Go for it. Knock yourself out.

Lets see how long before someone starts a new speculative, possible, my mate heard from a girl who works behind the counter at McDonalds thread. Its like herding chickens

I think you may be wrong.

Southport have a threead for "news of former Southport players" and it never slips far down the page before news of a former player bumps it back up.

Marc Pugh has rejected a new contract offer at Hereford. Open season.

Who has decided to change the title of this thread?

It would have been nice to have been asked before hand without one of the mods taking it upon themselves to change it.

This is the second time in two days that a change has been made to a post of mine. Neither of which have been offensive or abusive!

Like the mod guys always say, you're welcome to start your own forum if you like

It was me. I changed because I wanted to make sure that everyone realised, as you requested, that it was the main and hopefully only thread regarding transfers. OK I injected a bit of humour but check out Portchat. Your original title was the usual ambiguous one, e.g. A thread on say 'no seats left in the Main Stand', would have a title 'a funny thing happened on the way to Arnside'.

Interestingly logic by the way that he/she who opens the thread owns the thread. Perhaps explains why so many new ones get opened.

P.S. I love when you get angry.

What was the original title of the thread

something cryptic perchance

The original thread titles r still there if you look at the heading on top of the earlier posts

Just been looking on the grimsby town website and they have been busy chatting with players about moving there including paul scott,kenny arthur and andy holt...also states on there that they were chasing chris blackburn before he moved to wrexham

Oh yeah, I'd never noticed that! So this thread is on to it's third title now already? The second one explains the dummy spitting episode!

(I love the way people think us mods actually communicate with each other!)

Can we now change it to the 'Come and have a look at CC, he's pissed off 'cause they changed his thread title' thread???




...just for a laugh!

Can't change the thread title, it says so!

As thread owner, I think CC can change the title by editing his first post... probably!

CC, in the words of Harold Wilson: "He who rejects change is the architect of decay."

And now look where this thread is!!!

Just noticed rundle and whaley been released by chesterfield...certainly worth a look at in my opinion

Re: Don't Change the Tittle "Close season transfer thread" Threa

Can someone at least correct the spelling??? I would prefer:

'Please Refrain from Misspelling or Changing the Title of the "Close Season Transfer Thread" Thread'

....it has a ring to it! (Ever so slightly elongated, but hey!)

AH-HA!
I've been waiting all day for someone to point that out so I could reply with...






















It's a thread about transfer tittle-tattle!

Sorry. I couldn't resist.

Is it OK if I change it again?
