Talk on the Exeter forum that we put an offer in for Archie Collins. Cant say ive heard anything but you dont hear many rumours these days which is a good thing. I've liked him for ages would be a great addition, Exeter selling all their talent looking like a fire sale down there

Yeah Taunton. Jevani Brown also turned down a contract and is free to leave in the summer apparently. I can see Exeter back down to L2 before long Really impressed by Sam Nombe when I've seen him over past year or so. Yeah I cant see him staying there much longer either. They may need to blood a few more of their great youth players

Matt Taylor is desperate to get Archie Collins to rejoin him at Rotherham but he will command a fee.

I'd test Exeter for Sam Stubbs if they are having a clear out. Looked better than anything we have whenever ive seen him.

Caldwell has brought in his backroom staff as well which will cost. Perhaps players coming to the end of their contracts and Exeter knowing they can’t compete with wages elsewhere so they might as well sell and get something for them before they go for nothing. No evidence just an idea. UTG!

I hope we weren’t banking on Taylor becoming available again in Jan. we are woefully short of cover at the back. Made worse by Kilgour not being played (even last night or ahead of Whelan at CB), Clarke being loaned and Gibson being injury prone. Those calling for Gordon, Gibbons and Hoole to be loaned out - do you really think we can get 6 better players in? I think we can/should upgrade at LB and CB and get cover for RB. With Gibbons, Thomas and Gordon then providing cover. Kilgour was serving a suspension last night having been sent off v MK Dons in the last round

I think a few are a little quick to bemoan talented players...
Yes, we're conceding goals but we often play a striker at WB. We have some young defenders. Other than last night- we are competitive in each game and will only improve.
New players aren't always the answer. Work hard on what we have. For me- and extra CM and another LB option are needed for numbers, not due to lack of quality.

Would anyone take lys mousett ? No. Seriously I wouldn’t go anywhere near him. He had a good half season with Sheffield U and that’s all. I’ve rarely seen a more uninterested player when he was with AFCB. A huge sigh of relief from the Dean Court crowd when he exited the place. He makes Westbrooke look dynamic! (Sorry but No) 👎 UTG!

Would anyone take lys mousett ? Suspended by his current club for a "lack of motivation, unpunctuality and unprofessionalism", according to media reports in Germany.

Thanks pirate, I didn’t know that but it doesn’t surprise me. Although, for balance, Chris Wilder at SU made him play for half a season and he did well. But definitely not JBs type of player. A talented player no doubt but you need the determination and drive to go with it. UTG!

I can’t see Exeter selling sonny cox, they think very highly of him for the future, he bangs them in for fun..I know Exeter fans that are very excited about his future

Prolific in every age group up to u18s and u23s. He had the chance to leave after going on trial at Manchester United and a couple of other Prem clubs, but eventually rejected other offers to sign a deal to turn pro with Exeter, along with the young highly-rated goalkeeper Harry Lee.

A slightly more reliable source on the Exeter forum has rubbished the Collins move. Looks like no incomings before Accy. I’m not overly fussed but will frustrated come 5pm of our defence let’s us down, again.

Keep an eye on a loan move for Jarrell Quansah. Highly rated centre back at Liverpool.
