Ranking BBM's signings

Sun Oct 18, 2026 7:04 pm

This was a question someone put on social media so thought I'd post it on here, how would you rank BBM's signings.

There's only seven, I would go:



1 Trott
2 Moylan
3 Bielik
4 Osho
5 Kellyman
6 Scanlon
7 Tyrer


Could have put Kellyman a bit higher but because he was a loan that didn't stay, I've factored that in.

I think Scanlon has looked good but hasn't played that much which is why I have him there. If he starts to play more, would probably be higher.

Was torn between Trott and Moylan as 1st, but just basing it off Trott having proved himself in our team over a longer period of time.

Trott and Moylan are both excellent signings. Osho has been hit and miss sometimes he's MOTM but will occasionally throw in a howler. Beilek looks better every time we see him but I'd say it's still quite early. Tryer has been dreadful whenever I've seen him.

Moylan by a mile. Trott just edged over osho but not by much. The top 6 I’ve liked them all.

Moylan
Trott
Kellyman
Bielik
Osho
Scanlon
Tyrer

Three full transfer windows
Two loans out of seven signings
Two keepers, one of whom will never play unless the other is injured or suspended.

Trott and Moylan top quality signings - the others range from very good to okay.

I think it’s tight at the top, but for what he’s done over the longer period so far, I have to go with Nathan Trott ahead of Jack Moylan, although I think Moylan is already a class act and will take ‘Player of the Season’ at current trajectory :clap:

Beyond that, I cannot ‘rank’ the others, as they are/were all very good in a Bluebird shirt, and none, with the polite exception of Tryrer, who just hasn’t had a real opportunity, deserve to be ranked lowly (in a list) :ayatollah:

Obviously moylan would be top for me then kellyman. The must be all decent players, they have to be under BBM first off they need to be able to work in and out of possession if your not doing that your ability is irrelevant under BBM that's the first thing I've noticed.

Osho has got better as time went on I'd say also,

Trott is a good shot stopper but that's all for me he can't pass over 30 yards without finding touch before a blue shirt or other coloured shirt for me.

Beilik will be a average champ player as he's been there many of years.

The other two scanlon has got some place but hardly seen him with subs and stuff and that freebie goolkeeper only seen him once he was dreadful but time will tell. He must have something otherwise BBM wouldnt of signed him.

I like BBM approach to the transfer market, he doesn't sign players for the sake of it, spends money like it's his own(so far)

You would hope by next summer (if BBM and Tan are still at the club) when some of the big earners like Robinson and Chambers are out of contract, Tan will see that BBM has spent his money wisely and give him more of a bigger budget.

But this is Tan we're talking about, so probably not unfortunately.
