    Thought the free shipping comment was one of their fans. 
    We're signing Nombe and a French dog on a free.
  • How tall is the dog? Can it play left back?

    Very generous offer from Shein.

    Not tall but will put bite into midfield

    Runs around all day and very hard to get the ball off him, I've heard

    May be a bit far fetched given it's his neck of the woods but Nombe was in south west London yesterday for a haircut according to his story...

    Signing for Sutton then, another one we missed out on 🙄
  • Although he's had a ruff start growing up in Barking, if we can collar him then I think he'll lead us to winalot. 
  • Seems like an odd thing for an Exeter fan to make up so hopefully there is some legs to it! 
  • Can't complain if we get Nombe - will have gone out & bought two guys with 35 goals in this league between them last season.

    We're re-signing Charlie Barker?

    I'm pleased free shipping is available too, bargain!
  • If we do get Nombe I might go as far as to say this is the best transfer window we've had since 2011. 2018 with Lyle Taylor, Cullen and Bielik will be tough to beat as individuals but we didn't strenghten anywhere near as well across the whole team imo.

    That’ll be two in the blink of an eye then alongside Terrier Taylor 😉

    Don't forget that the 2018-19 promotion squad contained the nucleus of our team that made the playoffs the previous season.
    A major rebuild wasn't so necessary, mostly just adding better quality in a few key positions.



  • The Exeter link above suggests that they wouldn't sell Nombe until they had first brought in a replacement.

    Looks like Exeter have that player about to sign and will now sell Nombe.





  • Is Nombe actually good does anyone know? Yes he got a reasonable amount of goals last year, but Kirk had reasonable stats the season before we signed him (remember thinking from his video at the time, he looked a bit average though). So are we blinded by the stats or is he good?

  • Exeter tweet: 

    "Tough one re the Nombe situation. A fantastic player for us over the last few seasons.

    "But… if we’re being offered the best part of £1Million or over that, it’ll be very hard to turn down for someone with 12months left on their contract"

    Surely Exeter are along the lines of Cheltenham where they really need the money. I'd be shocked if he cost any more than about £300k
  • "best part of £1Million or over that" ......sounds like a lot of money for us?

    But of course, only speculation by Exeter fans.
  • There's no way we're paying a million or more.

    The fee will end up being nowhere near that, they must be delusional.
