Some might know this, but for those who don't Exeter have demolished their away end (not before time) and they are replacing it with the old away stand from Barnet's The Hive, where we were during our 3-1 win there when we invaded Barnet with inflatables.

I hate open away terraces, so this is a very welcome move. It's not nice getting soaked to the skin and then having to travel home, like I did from Exeter in the early 90's.

At least the new stand will have a roof though!

And bounces👍


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I'd rather stand out in the open than a tin animal hut .

Having said that I did sit on the back row of the seats at Exeter last season and can thoroughly recommend the view .

It would seem to be an improvement Les, I assume the stewards are not part of the deal?

Very happy about this, hate the away end. They're also getting a new side stand and getting rid of the really old scabby grand stand.
