Interesting that a few have said it’s a great signing perhaps without seeing him play.
Certainly won’t have seen him play in the cship
It’s a lot of money that’s for sure and a big fanfare.
I’m not trying to put a dampener on today, it’s just that I don’t post hugely negative comments when we lose just one match.
Quite a few on here do.
I trust MT,s long term vision even if SN doesn’t shine vs Norwich and I’m not sure that can be said for everyone
Well done Tony for trusting the Manager and giving him the tools to do his job.

Definitely pronounced NOMBAY according to an Exeter fan. More importantly he was very popular at Exeter, particularly effective partnered with Jevani Brown who I think we were also interested before he got done for assault and signed for Bristol Rovers, where I am sure he will forge a good working relationship with his manager Joey Barton. I reckon Nombe's been signed to play alongside Hugill. Here's hoping at least one of them scores on Saturday.
Good to see the 1.3 for wiles has immediately been spent. Excellent signing and exactly what we should be after.
Got to ask though, if he's worth this Smith must have been worth similar.
If it is indeed true (it seems a shame if it is and we don't at least acknowledge the milestone) and he turns out the be anything like the first million pound player then he'll do alright. 44 years on and in a way ironic that it's happened just after Trevor Francis' death.
