Another player who went to soon to a big club and just got lost
As I have said many times you are better off staying and developing as a player both physically and ability wise
Unfortunately they see more money big club and think they have made it
Staying at City would have immunised him from getting a serious injury?
When offered a contract by a Prem or old First Division club has any Exeter player ever said “No, Im staying at Exeter for a few years”?

Would you stick on minimum wage or take £10000 a week?! It’s a once in a life time opportunity to set yourself up for life.

Who are these players who left for a big club and got lost? The only one I can think of in recent times is Matt Grimes and he seems to be doing ok for himself now.

When you read about young players where it all goes wrong. I always remember Wayne Harrison. Tragic beyond belief.

Scott Golbourne has announced his retirement from football.
A reminder before everyone thinks we should sign him.

Does this mean he's available to host/ assist with the Exeweb Advent Calendar Quiz ?

Sounds like a Taylor-made replacement for Ajose then!
