Im encouraged by the tweet. Its a simple message but one im glad to hear. This is how i feel. I don’t need to know the ins and outs of a cats arse like many but would like to know more however than just that wael wishes us a happy new year. I’d like to know how he plans on making it a happy new year for the football club. Some very basic plan even without going in to the artists impressions of it and all the crap we’ve seen before.

Maybe we could offer £400k-500k and include either Nichols or Payne in the deal? Exeter know Nichols and were keen on him in the summer and Payne is a good L2 goalscorer so maybe one of them could reduce the total cost. £500k is still a big outlay for us, especially as our transfer record is £375k but if seen as an investment, it may very well be worth it if we could get Stockley scoring for us and inch us further away from the relegation zone. Pompey will pay him more and they’ll probably be championship next season can’t see him choosing us. A work colleague who has a good source on the club staff was advised we offered £400k for Stockley in the summer transfer window. It was rejected and we were miles away from offers they had already received from elsewhere. We didn't go back. With the the start he's had to the current season I'm sure he will be setting his sights on a Championship Club or one that will be there very soon - obviously rules us out !!

Doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. We’d be better off going for someone who’s banging them in non league for around 100-200 grand. And to be fair we’ve got a pretty good record with that kind of striker. Hopefully Cogs and his staff have got people in mind , personally if I was Wael then I’d give the bloke the job even if we lose tomorrow . 3 wins out of every 5 would keep us up. On another note , Jakubiak is on fire and Reilly will score goals , Nichols never gives the ball away and will probably score now we’ve changed the way we’ve played. If we keep all of them this window I’d go for 2 naturally wide atrackers over a new forward and look to loan bennet and Payne out.

I'd like to see Nichols play alongside or just behind jakubiak in the current formation. For me Bennett flatters to deceive - looks skilful and has some great touches but I'm not convinced he will ever deliver on a consistent basis - similar to the conclusions of Kenny Jacket I suspect. I'd like a new left winger allowing THD to revert to left back and a striker to replace Payne. No major surgery to the rest of the squad required IMO.

I would like us to sign a left back or left winger to allow HD to play left back if possible, in an ideal world a centre forward who is good in the air, would help defensively and in attack. We have won the last three, which i have enjoyed watching, but we still lack someone who can attack a cross, like the Walsall no9 did against us getting knock downs or headers on goal. In this division the ball is in the air more often than not.

Toughest test so far for GC tomorrow, keeping everything crossed for 4 in a row! UTG The next game is always the toughest test , we won’t win them all but we’ve got to keep on trying to win the next one. I’ve Been in this position with Rovers more times than I can remember we’ve just got to keep turning up , keep chanting loud and keep the faith.

The release clause is £750k and as Exeter don’t want to sell and currrently don’t need to, anything other than a straight £750k and Stockley is going nowhere. How do you know that? Not wanting to sound rude but surely that should be a secret so a club doesn't bid the bare minimum ala Taylor.

Whether he'd have scored is another thing.

It’s all over the Devon press plus you have to be naive not to know that his agent will be telling every club that is interested what is written into his contract,
