Little Shrimp wrote:A number of rumours flying about on Twitter (particularly last night) from various EFL transfer accounts. Redshaw, Paul Anderson, David Perkins, Connor Simpson (tall striker from Preston we were linked with last year) and Ryan Taylor all been mentioned. Also Brett Pitman, which would be a shock considering he's not been further north than Ipswich!
Can never know with these accounts, a lot of their rumours seems like they could have been made up through 'convenience'. Redshaw is a former player obviously but the connection is with JB, and he's been plagued by injury over the last few years. Shaun Miller also got churned out in the name generator a few weeks back, but DA didn't seem to fancy him at all during his loan.
Judging by the article in the Visitor, it does seem like we are close to annoucning some names. Would love for them to be announced now but I've got a feeling we'll get told once the team gets back to training.
If you sign a released player before 31st July then you have to pay them their salary for July.
If you sign a released player on 1st August the club he has been released by have to pay him his July salary as a sort of in lieu of notice payment.
