Normally I'g agree that attack is the best form of defence. However, that only applies if you are capable of attacking. Let's face it our attacking threat is currently limited to trying to put a decent ball into the box and failing miserably on every single occasion. In the last two games we have attacked quite a lot in the 1st half but our ability to create decent chances is near to non-existent. To make matters worse in both games a quick punt up field a mistake by Osbourne and we've been one down and heads have then dropped. In the last 4 games we've conceded 10 and scored 2. We need to get back to basics imho and aim for a clean sheet first and foremost. Goal difference could end up being crucial and with the best will in the world we are not going to score our way to a better goal difference. If we can nick a goal from a set-piece or corner (pretty unlikely) then brilliant. I'd go for this line up McKeown Mills Collins Osbourne Clarke Suliman Dixon Summerfield Berret Rose Mcallister PARK THE BUS
It's ok parking the bus but with Dixon in there its like leaving the windows wide open.

We simply don't have the players capable and smart enough to park the bus and keep Exeter out for 90 minutes.
We may as well go for it, attack I mean. It seems certain we will concede at some point so we must go out to score a goal or two to try and get something out of the game.
You never know, we might just catch them on an off day?
But then I am the eternal optimist.

To me, at home, we need to show intent get D.J. in there and get around the back of them.
The crowd can play there part and get behind Wilco that he and the players are in no doubt who we support.
WE ARE ALL TOWN WE WANT THAT WIN.
After the minute's applause in respect of Steve Plowes a massive long rendition of "WE ONLY SING WHEN WERE FISHING" chanted on ALL THREE SIDES OF THE GROUND would look and sound great last home game the upper Findus sounded good. Let's hope we give Wilco and the players a good appreciation he is one of us after all.

Think I'd go for Hooper rather than Matt. he was dreadful last week and the week before he missed a complete sitter in the dying stages when it was harder to miss than score..

good shout Ron, I forgot about Hooper scoring, if you cant get in the team after scoring then you might as well go else where.
