The Summer Transfer Targets thread

Matt Godden seems to be available, worth a punt?

Not exactly prolific but in a better team, any better than say Forte?

Last year he was on fire and was ripped to go into the championship, but this year not so good but may have had his head turned either way, probably out of our price range

Godden is out of our price range and off to Posh

Odd that such a player is 'out of our price range' after a mediocre season and having not really been proven in the football league?

Thats cos they were chucking around half a million asking price for him. We cant afford to pay what Stevenage want, hes out of our range, especially if we value him much lower. Then its bad business. Either way, hes meant to be off to Posh.

We have also asked about Gomis from over the river, but that will depend on us going up as F****t want him to play higher than L2

Seems Mr Curtis thinks not, so who knows more?

Probably putting two and two together to make five, but I notice Peterborough have transfer-listed former Newcastle centre-half Steven Taylor and would probably let him leave for nothing. Nolan of course knows him from Newcastle and might be tempted to ask, given his form for trusting in former acquaintances.

At 32 he's not past it for a centre-half and certainly ticks the big guy, head it, kick it, leader criteria, albeit his career has been drifting since his late twenties. You would think he could cope easily with League Two though, and he might make different wage demands to work with Nolan again than if he was going elsewhere.

That's a pretty decent shout Jackal, always liked the guy and unfairly shown the door at Newcastle, I would like to see him down the lane, proven premier league player who's only 32, I would think there will be a lot of teams in for him to be honest

Taylor would be another option similar to Brisley, I wouldn't be against it but I wouldn't mind having a centre back with a bit of pace

Strong rumours today that Notts have enquired about Kristian Dennis at Chesterfield......thoughts ?
