Saw the coopers bus pulled on the hard shoulder just outside exeter and then just seen one heading past Birmingham going in the opposite direction, I hope that's not a rescue mission  as it will be past midnight before it gets there


I'm not on it but they did break down and were stuck for two hours...not been a good week for them travelling wise.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Back home now after a rolling road block on the way home.

What a performance from every player on that pitch today! I can understand why people were unsure of MJ's selection at first but I have to say he got it right, the pace we had on the counter was incredible for the two goals that killed the game off in the second half.

Max Wright is fantastic and caused them so many problems that they just resorted to kicking him around and he has a great knack of drawing a foul. Pollock and Waterfall were excellent at the back repelling most of what was thrown at them when Exeter were piling on the pressure. So hard to pick a man of the match today but I'd give it to Robson for a wonder goal and then great composure for his second.

I was surprised when I found out there was only 261 of us there as it certainly sounded like more at times. Exeter were a very welcoming club too with loads of signs thanking us for making the long journey and the fan zone was a lovely little touch which I think our club should seriously look to do sometime soon.

Just seen that Colin Murray has chosen us for team of the day too which is a nice touch

Honestly must have watched a different game, thought Rose had a stinker. Don’t remember him doing anything other than that ball for Wright before the pen? All good and well, we won but think people would have a different opinion had we lost that...

Not writing him off, just acknowledging he didn’t come off great today.

Quoted from Heisenberg


Are Hanson and Green now the Plan B?!


Much preferred today’s style of play. Without Hanson we played passing football rather than the usual hoof up field. Robson is a quality player in the middle who can retain the ball under pressure, and Wright can carry the ball. More of the same please Jolley,

Those flipping Mind badges don’t stay upright! Pins below the centre of gravity.

If we think we have problems because of our location, Exeter must be at least as bad. Maybe Plymouth is a bit worse. So they’ve worked hard to make it attractive. Also owned by the fans - many hands make light work.


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.

The team today had skill, pace,  youth, energy and quality.  Just the qualities to give Chelsea something to think about.  Even though we would have lost anyway.

Great response today.  Such character.  We could not have had a harder match, and after less than 3 days.  A very long journey as well.

If Max Wright had the football intelligence to draw fouls, and be a marked man, then he is already preparing for playing at a higher level.  This his first league 90 mins?  An exciting player.

The whole team did well.  Well done Michael Jolley for playing a team that fans want to see.

How come we did not concede the first goal?

I see that Chelsea won easily today with 5 outfield players on the pitch that played against us.  Also, that Lampard publicity had a go at Hudson-Ooi for not working hard enough against us.  To quote Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, “I thought for a minute we were in trouble there” 😏
