Anyone ever herd of him at all?

Striker 26 and currently playing for Tonbridge Angels.  Scored 44 non-league goals last season and won the non-league player of the year.

Had a trial with us at some point but not one I can recall.

I see on the bench for Exeter was Paul Buckle, who is now manager of Torquay, who mullered Yeovil on Sunday, who won at the CG.  Interesting that Torquay had a shed load of ex scum playing for them....if Buckle can get them playing maybe he has a future in the game.

   Also I spotted the landlord and landlady of teh Kings in the crowd  :shock:

Unfortunately I was, and am still, stuck down a salt mine out here. I did manage to secrete a lap top about my person so can keep up with happenings back in Swindon, although it's not easy reading by candlelight but as a Town fan I'm used to being kept in the dark.

I was surprised that Jon Main just disappeared off the radar after that match. I believe he has scored 16 times this season already ... albeit at Isthmian Premier level for Tonbridge Angels.

He has cery good stats 51 goals in 56 games at that level, but didn't James Constable do similar at Nam a few years back and he never made the step up.

here is a page on Jon Main.
