Somebody asked the question on another thread, do Exeter have any more players with the initials JS. Can't find the post to quote it. This is from the Exeter forum though lol

Of course someone on here pointed out that they might next be in for Jack Sparkes ( for any PNE fan, he is a promising winger who made his debut at 16 and is just turned 18 and plays in Lee Holmes position and style)
 
Jack is one of the many talented players at the Exeter City Academy. The player, from Exmouth, made the step up to the first team this season despite only being 16 years old at the time. He has got an eye for goal and a fantastic left-foot and can play anywhere on the left or right and in central midfield.

Jack is the club’s 1931 Fund player for last season and he made his debut for the club away at Swindon Town in August. He came on as a second-half substitute and rattled the outside of the post with a long-range effort. He scored his first goal for City later that month in the Checkatrade.com Trophy against Yeovil Town.
 
Got to admit that before Storey and Stockley I can't remember us signing any players from the South West of the country. But given how those two are shaping up maybe we should do so more often. Weren't we supposedly monitoring a right-back at Yeovil.

That's true but I was thinking of the further South West - Exeter, Yeovil, Plymouth. Torquay, which of course saw the birth of the Gentry, are now in the National League South.

Tom James? He played central midfield on Saturday and scored their first goal.
 
Interestingly Jayden Stockley and Jordan Storey's names are almost homophonic , same number of syllables and forenames and surnames start and end with the same letter. I can see some people getting very confused over this 🙂

The commentator on Radio Lancashire did on Saturday, though he seems to often gets names wrong and fails to convey what’s happening at times.

Maybe that is what inspired Storey to start acting like a centre forward and volleying the ball into the opposition net. He has come close to getting a goal once or twice previously but his finish on this occasion really was high-class - first time with the outside of his foot to give the keeper no chance.
