The standard is definitely higher in League One than League Two - so a move to Exeter will test him more. I can see the argument about having to break into a new side and establish himself again with a new manager - but that is surely partly the point? This season looks like a pretty well managed two-stage crash course for Joel Colwill so he is ready to take on the Championship in 2025-6.
