The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[Deutsch Wolf]

Doesn't even get his own welcome thread

Don't like those threads anyway, this isn't Villa Talk

 

[Del Woppio]

Opening the 'welcome' thread with a quiz on Tom King's career would be a pretty cool way of making everybody feel stupid though.

 

[Kenny]

I like him already

"He also entered the Guinness Book of Records in January 2021 for scoring the longest ever goal. From a distance of 96.01 metres, "

 

[Derby Wolf]

we'll soon snuff out any goalscoring ability.

 

[Dire Wolf]

"He also entered the Guinness Book of Records in January 2021 for scoring the longest ever goal. From a distance of 96.01 metres, "

If he played a season for us he'd end up our top scorer...

Shambles of an effort from the Cheltenham keeper. Got divers boots on.

 

[Kenny]

King put as much effort into that as Sa does for a 5 metre pass and got it 95 metres further up the pitch

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Metres?!

 

[Kenny]

Just using the Record Book option for measuring things. Good enough for the folk at Guinness, good enough for me


(also I am not converting shit on a Monday morning)

That "celebration" is so modest

Keepers union thing innit


(I once scored when playing as a keeper and did not respect that union one bit at all)

 

[Kenny]

Post from leedswolf has been reported.

I hope the admin who is first to see the report acts on it swiftly...

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

With Coady, Collins and Kilman all gone/potentially gone, how might our homegrown squad status be effected?

I guess King helps with that.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Coady wasn't here anyway so he doesn't count in relation to what we had last season.

If Giles stays then he has to be registered as he's 23 now and he'll count.

 

[Del Woppio]

We've also lost Joao, Adama and Ruben. I suspect we'll just have more 'gaps' in the squad than last year

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Pretty sure we don't have to register Bueno this year (not 21 until mid-September) but when he is old enough he'll count as HG.

 

[Alan]

Adama's hardly someone we'll miss in terms of output and we're well-stocked at CM tbf.

 

[Del Woppio]

Oh yeah, I was talking purely from a 'home-grown vs non-home-grown' squad place perspective

 

[Alan]

My bad! Ain't had my morning coffee yet.
