Comings and goings

[Boz]

I think £750k would be a reasonable fee for Max, were it to happen. He has some talent and works extremely hard at his game

If Max is going, I hope he goes soon, so Micky has time to source a replacement and spend some of the money. I'm not a big fan of the transfer window, which is artificial and results in some strange dealings.

JMW could be an exciting signing. Mickey can't say we are left side deficient now, although he can play down the right - will put some pressure on Fenleon as well. Really thought we would get a centre back soon - good to hear of possible news from elsewhere. Equally, maybe Mickey has seen enough of Gumbs to count him legitimately into the mix?

Fenelon's deal ends in a couple of weeks and I don't know if it can/will be extended again.

Linked with Adam Dugdale from Crewe, who was on loan for a month last season. Main things I recall about his stay were conceding the injury-time penalty to Brentford when we lost 3-4 and as soon as he started to regain match fitness, Crewe took him back. Given the choice would prefer to keep Thompson, but would do a reasonable job for us, if any truth in the rumour.

Signed Dugdale - offered him a far better deal than Crewe could. Changed days! Still hope we get Josh too though: http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/tranmere-rovers-fc-sign-crewe-8515755

still nothing confirmed officially, rumours now that hes failed a medical

Adam Dugdale signs today on a 6 month contract with an option for a 12 month extension. Seems a good move by Micky to strengthen our defence. So now on to Exeter and 3 points, hopefully.

Any news or rumours of any more comings or goings? I understand Max is sitting it out until May. Any news on Jamie Glackin, the young Irish striker we were after? Assuming Max stays, I think we're just about OK for now. You can't predict injuries, suspensions or poor form, so I expect Micky will use the loan market as required.

Now we've signed Josh Thompson on a six-month deal. I'm surprised we've been able to take him and he hasn't insisted on a longer deal. You've go to congratulate Micky on some great business this month. OK, we'll have a lot of players out of contract in June, but I would expect most would stay if we remain in League Two. We are relying on loanees less than I can remember, which cuts the risk of losing key players. We'll done, Micky!

 

[frenchrover]

Spot on BBTC, a good move by Micky as Josh has looked really accomplished since coming in to the side. As you say, come the end of the season and we know where we stand Micky has ensured a lot of options will be open to us in terms of player retention or release. Players will also know then what is available to them in terms of contract options, so everyone wins.

Really pleased dugdale has signed. Great player at this level and someone that can organise the defence. Still think we are a little short up front with a decent goalscorer but im just being picky now. Team shaping up well.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Two very good signings. Hopefully Josh can stay clear of injury between now and the end of the season and remain with us in the longer term.

Depending on the Donacien situation, I think our transfer business is now complete. Well done to the Palioses for backing Adams like no other Tranmere manager in recent memory.

 

[Boz]

Agreed; I was expcting Dugdale as a replacement for Thompson, having both for the rest of the season is a positive.

I get the impression that there may be one or two more arrivals still to come.

Well done to the Palioses for backing Adams like no other Tranmere manager in recent memory.

Yes, I should have said that. And I suppose with Holness being on the sidelines for so long, we were quite short of central defenders.

 

[GroundsmansFork]

Iaim Hume's back. Hope he can offer a good deal to us. Good to see him back. Seems things are happening every day at the Club.

 

[frenchrover]

Great news....Humey's coming home. After his succesful spell in India he is to grace Prenton Park again. Well done Micky and also well done Mark and Nicola Palios for putting their faith in Micky and backing his judgement and providing the funds to make Humey's signing possible.

 

[bigmart]

some excellent signings, I would expect a few departures too possibly a couple on loan.

well weve got a decent squad together now to move up the table

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Exciting times at Prenton Park. I think Humey was angling for a return to Rovers over the summer, but Butler and Johnson would not come up with the money to bring him here.

I have slight reservations that he is another player over the age of 30, but his record in India suggests he still has a lot to offer.

 

[Ian]

This is brilliant. Just as i was bemoaning the lack of quality up front, Humey returns home. Exciting times.
