When we signed Matt Jay I thought it was probably one of our best signings at the time. Excellent player for Exeter, and always seemed a thorn in our side when we were up against him. But, I haven’t seen enough from him in his cameos (in person and online) to believe he warrants a starting place ahead of our current midfield options. I assume successive managers who see him day to day in training feel the same. I still have hope he can do something for the U’s, but some Exeter fans I met on my way back from Donny away last season were not surprised he was struggling to hold down a regular place even in the matchday squad. As was mentioned in the commentary, I expect him to go out on loan in January, and probably not come back. Shame! | |
