Standard post from Epsom recommending another Exeter player yawn yawn Another typically ignorant retort from a no-mark poster who is incapable of any constructive comment on anything. Jog on, you loser. You really need to Join the Exeter forum board as that is all you talk about

You really need to Join the Exeter forum board as that is all you talk about I'm already on the Exeter forum, and I am a Trust member. Nothing wrong with having a second team, but I'm a Town fan first and foremost, and always will be. Anyway, I don't need to justify myself or my posts to a nonentity like yourself with your weird fixation. I've got it....you're an Argyle fan, aren't you!

I would suspect they'll keep Hogg, like others have said his work rate and attitude is a good role model and leader for a relatively young squad.
Matmour is the only Wagner signing there, suspect his shortcomings are just written off as "adapting to the english game". Pretty confident this will be signed.
The rest I wouldn't be surprised if they all left, it is the Wagner revolution after all he'll want to shape the squad his way. DH seems keen to buy into this movement, so wouldn't be surprised if we see numerous changes (mostly in defence probably) in the summer.
However you look at it certainly exciting times ahead for Huddersfield in the next few months!

I find it strange that people are saying keep Wright and Boyle because they've done ok in League Two while in the same breath saying release Holmes who's a similar age and has played close to 30 games two divisions higher! I've not suggested we should release Holmes- if he's on a reasonable wage it's definitely worth the perseverance. My point on the other two is that people are saying release them and I bet they haven't seen them or even know anything about them, whereas I suppose they've at least seen Holmes. The reason behind possibly releasing William Boyle could be more to do with the lads younger than him.For example if he is released there is the opportunity for the likes of Jordan Williams/Danny Kane/Fraser Horsfall to get regular game time in the u21s. Personally from what I have seen of William Boyle-I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a living out of the game but I don't think he is good enough at championship level or above which is what the benchmark is now for a Town academy player.No point keeping a player who isn't quite good enough because he is cheap if he is blocking the path of a Jordan Williams who has the potential to play at Championship level or above.

This. Next season we have Boyle, Wright, Horsfall, Kane and Cogill in the u21 squad. All of them are center backs and none of them is allowed to play for the u18 anymore. Add the exciting Jordan Williams (who should be given more regular game time in the u21 next year) and we have a lot of players to play in only two spots. I suppose some could go out on loan though. Can see Boyle being retained and loaned out for the season and Wright being sold to accrington if they go up.

I've a feeling it's the last year for him and Duane Holmes this season, though they could carry on as overage players like Allinson has done this time around.

Joe Wright was born in 1995 I think, and Holmes 1994. Don't really know what the rules are (if the time of the year they are born makes a difference) but wright probably has one last year at that level, just as Boyle who also was born in 1995.

I'm not sure of the rules either, was thinking that as I seem to remember Wright & Holmes being in the age group above the likes of Boyle, Wilkinson, Charles & Bojaj when they were in the academy. I could be remembering it wrong though.

I could be remembering it wrong though. No you are right they was in the group above but the age isn't always "the same as the age-group". One example is Regan Booty and Jack Boyle being one year younger than Jacob Hanson although they are in the same age-group. A little bit confusing

After yesterday I think we can't afford to offer a contract to Matmour as having a good 20 minutes at Leeds isn't enough for me when most of the games he plays he is pretty ineffective. I would rather see Pike being given a chance should the opportunity arise, i.e. if we are definitely safe.

Don't tell the weirdo fishy man, but a certain striker I mentioned earlier on this thread scored a couple of goals yesterday, the second of which was runner-up in goal of the week apparently. Of course, I know nowt....

Chris, How does he compare to wimbledon's Ryan Sweeney - we are supposed to be scouting him? You got me on that one Richard! Sweeney's name didn't ring a bell so I checked and he didn't play against York. I've seen AFCW 5 or 6 times this season and I don't recall Sweeney at all. So there you go. Where you heard Town are interested? Another tip on an Exeter prospect....note the name, Ollie Watkins, tall young forward but looking good as an attacking midfielder. Saw him at Crawley yesterday and he made the opener beautifully and scored the second. Eddie Howe was there watching apparently..... Watkins is football league young player of the month. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36048681

Totally irrelevant reply here as I know little about Exeter footie club but the Imperial Hotel (Wetherspoons) is a cracking boozer architecturally.

A colleague at work told me that Duane has signed up to play cricket for Scholes this summer. Following in Boothy's footsteps, sort of.

Deano mentioned a couple of times at his Saturday QnA that there were a lot of out of contract players leaving at the end of the season - he re-iterated it when he talked about having to bring in a "shed-load" of players - "because of the amount of the amount of out-of-contract players leaving". So where does that leave the 9 out-of-contract first team squad members ...
Confirmed Leaving: Vaughan, Holmes
Unconfirmed Leaving: Allinson, Boyle, Miller
Staying: Hudson
Unknown: Hogg, Matmour, Cranie
From the tone of Dean's comments I'd say it would be unlikely that all 3 of those unknowns are staying next season, if any. Only 5 leaving out of 9 isn't "lots" is it?. The only one I've heard DW speak about is Matmour, saying he'll take his time before deciding.

He's is a very capable squad player. I believe what Dean said is based on the fact short term loans will no longer exist as of next season. We will need to ensure we have enough strength in depth to see us through to the next window. Therefore we will need "shed loads". In addition I believe we have already exercised the additional year on Hoggs contract.
