Most of them ok for an OAP league

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

We're finally signing Jay Rodriguez, Tom Ince and Nathan Redmond.

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

Nobody really stands out there; the only ones that do would either want horrendous wages, or don't really fit BBM's age profile.

Had no idea Karlan Grant is only 28, though. I thought he was 29/30 when he played for us.

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

I'd take Karlan Grant back

possibly Daryl Dike

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

WoL publishes these lists every summer, do we ever sign any of these players?

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

Jamal Lewis is an interesting one - bags of experience at a good level can play anywhere down the left. Be interesting to see what preston fan thought of his short spell there.

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

For what it's worth, I remember Pierre Dwomoh being a Wonder kid on on Football Manager a few years ago. I'm guessing they got that one wrong.

Re: Transfer Rumours 2026

Watford about to sack their manager (they haven't done that for a few weeks!) and considering bringing in Erol Bulut, apparently.

He might make the start of the new season there.
