Summer 2026 transfer window

I think he looked frustrated at Reading. He made some runs and created space but passes never came. He never stopped trying to. Snatching at chances is a sign of low confidence or pressure. And its clear the manager didnt fancy him.

He needed games and he needed to fit a style.

I’ve already said, im not convinced tge actual striker is the issue, its the total lack of creating chances, which carried from end of last season.

Wareham starts for Exeter.

Well if the rumours about his wages are correct, now we can afford to take Rashford on loan for the season.

I find it very hard to believe that he made 31 appearances for us.

The slower pace of play in the Scottish League will hopefully suit him better.

The departure of Fink suggests that the club are now very confident that another striker will be signed.

Or the fact he rarely gets any game time or even gets on the bench that letting him go makes no difference to our matches

To say his effort is questionable is, in my opinion, incorrect

Good trying but then stropping kicking yourself if it does not work is something a phycologist needs to teach out of him

How much will have today’s performance added (or not) to the transfer pot to sign Wareham (or similar alternative) I wonder?
It felt a bit like the lineup was made to prove we needed to spend on him.

I certainly hope Duff didn’t field a team to prove a point! Wareham played and didn’t score for Exeter today.

Sending Fink out certainly won’t have strengthened our negotiating position

I’m not sure how much of a difference that makes. Fink was never the answer whether he’s here or not.

It’s been said a dozen times or more on here but it bears repetition. If a centre forward is not receiving the service he requires he’ll struggle really hard to have any real impact, let alone score goals.

Sam Bell was an unused sub for Bristol City today. Although they couldn’t name a full squad so it’s not likely they’ll be open to offers.

That does seem the worry.

Seeing Fink go out like that made it seem like we must have sealed a striker, so to see Wareham starting today was a head scratcher.

Wareham has been doing due diligence
