Thought I'd start a thread for people to discuss potential transfers during this window, yes most are probably bollocks but I enjoy the fun of seeing who we're linked with, here's the newest one doing the rounds

Saw that one earlier. The name rings a bell so may have been linked with a transfer somewhere in the summer.

BBM was asked about a Leicester player that has been at Newport after the Wycombe game but said there was nothing in it.

I’m predicting BBM has targeted three signings this January Transfer Window, if talk is correct

No names at this point, and as ever, none of us truly knows whether they will come off at this point, but I understand he has specific players in mind

I fully expect him to be backed by the owner, if they can be gotten over the line, and maybe the first will be Biancheri from ManUre, based only on the timing of his visit to the stadium last week? :ayatollah:

We, are now at the business end of the season. I would hope to sigh someone with more experience than Biancheri.
Whether Tan will cough up is another matter.

If there's a player available whos going to strengthen our squad then age isn't important for me

Luey Giles and will spiers have Gone on loan to national league side Eastleigh

It could be an interesting month with many rumours linking us with players especially as we are top of the league pushing for promotion.

I think a LB and a striker should be priority.

the fact giles has gone out on loan means we surely be finally getting that left back we have needed for last 3 seasons

Rees from Merthyr signed for forest green..2 goals on his debut. Prolific scorer, we could have taken a low cost gamble here. Won't miss the chances that sallach and Robinson does.

People have said the same about many players, some have failed and some have succeeded, it's usually a gamble whoever you buy but this guys stats are fantastic and I wish we'd taken a gamble on him as a backup to Salech and Robinson.

All strikers miss chances but it's how many they score that counts not how many they miss, unless they're not scoring at all obviously.

True, but this Rees will probably go nowhere with his career. That's normally the case.

It's not long ago that people wanted us to sign Paul Mullin.
