Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

The paperwork begins on Frank Tattum

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Gillingham have done the hard part with Birmingham, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Market11 Jan 2027

Gillingham sign Corey Addai for $770.0K

The paperwork is done: Corey Addai joins from Stockport County in a deal worth $770.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Player ratings11 Jan 2027

Ronan Hale runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Tempers go at Gillingham

Federico Ortiz was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

Door shut on David Kasumu

Gillingham asked and Huddersfield Town said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match9 Jan 2027

Gillingham come up short against Grimsby Town

Grimsby Town left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout11 Jan 2027

No hiding place for Omar Beckles

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Omar Beckles, and the manager let it.

The dugout11 Jan 2027

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑2 defeat, delivered by Harry Young to a room that had heard them before.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

Gillingham ask about Liam Kitching

A loan enquiry to Coventry City: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Market11 Jan 2027

Terms done: Brad Hills is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Barrow AFC waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Stockport County is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

Stockport County bid $8.4M for Jack Clarke

The offer went to Ipswich Town this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Marcus Bettinelli keeps Stockport County in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market11 Jan 2027

Jack Diamond puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Stockport County, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad11 Jan 2027

The step up is real for Brad Hills

At 22 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

An offer of $980.0K for Ashley Fletcher

Stockport County have gone to Blackpool with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Market11 Jan 2027

Business is business: Benoný Breki Andrésson goes

Wycombe Wanderers paid $1.4M and Stockport County took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Business is business: Corey Addai goes

Gillingham paid $770.0K and Stockport County took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Door shut on Ben Wilson

Stockport County asked and Coventry City said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match17 Oct 2026

Whatever happens, Stockport County do not lose

10 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Joseph Olowu keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Stockport County may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Oliver Norwood, 35, rolls back the years — 7.80

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.80 at 35, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Real improvement from Samson Tovide at Stockport County

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Samson Tovide is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Jack Diamond out for 34 days

The medical room confirms 34 days on the sidelines for Jack Diamond, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The terraces19 Oct 2026

One of their own: Lewis Bate

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match17 Oct 2026

Oliver Norwood the difference as Stockport County beat Lincoln City

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Oliver Norwood. 1‑0 against Lincoln City, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

A satisfied Jonathan Hawkins

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 1‑0, Jonathan Hawkins could afford to be generous.

Market19 Oct 2026

Corey Addai told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Corey Addai has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Stockport County.
