Didn't do the basics well enough. You say that every week Russ but other teams seem to manage the basics.

You mean the basics like appointing a half decent manager.

One basic would be scoring, frankly given up on anything entertaining.

Quoted from GrimRob

We haven't won at Exeter since the 1990-1991 season (in Old Division 3) during AB's first spell.

What's that noise?sounds like the bottom of the barrel being scraped.

Why. we continue to start Vernon I don't know, lacks pace, not really a goal threat at all and i just don't see what he offers us at all to be honest. Get rid of dixon ffs and woolford has had his chance as well. flipping shite signing old past it players rather than up and coming players from non league which is the way to go. We've done this before slade it got us relegated, I don't mind collins and mills and Davies but would of kept Pearson for the other slot.  Every team attacks dixon they know his the weakness and they exploit it and were slow at attacking teams on the break we give them time to get back. Our team lacks pace and creativity in midfield. I would get rid of them all except macca, mills, Davies, Collins, dembele, Jones and Osbourne and that's be being brutually honest. I know Summerfield has been decent of late but how many assists has he got 1-2 and how many goals 0 we need a good clear out starting from the pissing top.

Slade only signed one of those.

I know, he signed most of the other useless twits id get rid of.

Slade interview on RH now


Played a good side pushing for promotion

Disappointed with the start, mainly us defending and then poor decisions led to their goal

We stayed in the game and then they got a second

DJ came on and made an impact but we just huffed and puffed

Didn't take chances when they came along

We've been resilient lately but the difference today was not doing the basics well enough

They didn't create much -  not many opportunities from either side

He's stuck with this group but if he has to make changes he'll consider it

He was looking forward to the game but we came up short

Football is about responding with determination..... take the negativity and the positivity

Too many who didn't have decent games today

I'm sick & tired of watching 2 teams not create very much and we end up with at
best a 0-0 draw or we lose 1-0
Come on Slade it's just not working let the players be creative and attack the opposition we might
concede 2 or 3 but we might score a few ourselves and at least we would have something to get excited about
40 years plus of watching Town and for the first time I am thinking of giving up, even relegation from the football league didn't have me feeling like this, enough is enough

And where is the new stadium that we all got excited about?

Exerer had just gone 4 games without a win inc. a home defeat to Port Fail and currently below us in the current form table, does he think before makes excuses, what a chance. team with a big slump in form so does he go for it, attack from the start, get a quick goal, wreck any confidence they may have remaining, Nooooo  thats too risky, lets sit back and let them get a bit of control.
