Sky Sports agrees new five-year EFL deal: Over 1000 matches per season! | Football News | Sky Sports More money for clubs, but is this progress?

Behind a paywall, but the text without the photos is: No phones, no egos, no flash cars: Jamie Carragher interviews the brains behind Liverpool's talent factory Under Alex Inglethorpe, more and more academy graduates are passing Jurgen Klopp 'auditions', which is critical to Liverpool's...

Assuming everyone was fit, mine would currently be (5-2-3 or 5-4-1) Sinisalo Niskanen Sweeney Diabate Hartridge Purrington Cole Woods Rankine Isa Aitcheson But there are for once so many permutations I doubt if any two Exewebbers will chose the same 11.

Footballers demand compensation over 'data misuse' - BBC News This is interesting. I has vaguely wondered about whether players agree this data collection as part of their employment and who is responsible for ensuring it is accurate, but apparently not and no-one.

You have to change the terms of the debate. Matt T is suggesting that RB is being targeted and penalised for actions which opposition players get away with. I tend to agree, but it's just possible I may not be impartial... Ryan Bowman: Exeter City striker is 'a marked man', says boss Matt...

Rory McArdle: Exeter City defender pleased to be back after freak injury - BBC Sport This made me chuckle.

A 16 year old from Cambridge United has signed for AS Roma. They paid only £70K in compensation. I wonder if we are vulnerable to this sort of hoovering up of talent? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53985875

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/feb/07/safe-standing-across-english-football-step-closer-sports-grounds-safety-autority-report-positive About time. Rail seats are MUCH safer than people standing up in conventional seated areas. Especially at grounds like Luton, Pompey and others...

Assuming the turnout on Boxing Day is at least 5,590 (which looks a pretty safe bet) that will take the average for the first 12 games of the season to 5,000. That is of course bumped up by the Argyle game but it's nonetheless a pretty healthy increase. The only really below-par gate was for...

Now that the PL / Championship window is closed, loans of younger / less favoured players from the top clubs to us riff-raff now come into play. We still clearly need RB cover. I don't expect we can attract Wilson back from WBA, they probably want him to go to a L1 club. But Matt is one hopes...

We have been discussing these elsewhere on Exeweb, but they probably deserve a thread of their own. The IFAB (amusingly, stlll run by the 4 home football association rather than FIFA) who decide the laws of the Game are making more changes to the rules for next season, especially to handball...

This doesn't carry over the layouts properly but the numbers are unaffected. So far the official numbers form the away grounds reveal that we have had 9,306 away attendances for an average of 443 a game, ranging from 123 at Lincoln to 1328 at Yeovil. Assuming we get say 400 at Stevenage and...

These are the fixtures of the top 9. A lot of banana skins for everyone, but we only play 2 of the others: Lincoln 23.03. Crawley Lincoln 30.03. Lincoln Macclesfield 06.04. MK Dons Lincoln 13.04. Lincoln Cheltenham 19.04. Carlisle Lincoln 22.04. Lincoln Tranmere 27.04. Newport Co...

This is an interesting piece. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/12/28/jamie-carragher-interviews-steven-gerrard-talked-tactics-rafa/ "I still speak to Alex Inglethorpe (LFC Academy Director) quite a bit," Amusingly, if the rumors are true he was offered the job of manager at MK in...

Half of Block A now released for sale, as the rest of the stands are almost sold out. Should be a great atmosphere on Boxing Day with well over 5K in attendance. Let's just hope for a good win. With 4 home and only 2 away games coming up we have a great chance to reel in the top three.

Might add a bit of interest to Tuesday night's game. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46317002

Worth £595M over 5 years, apparently. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46267320 Details are sketchy but if the current 80:12:8 split between Championship, L1 and L2 clubs continues this will mean our share should increase to just over £400K p.a. (595M x 0.08 / 5 / 23 = 0.414) However the...

I ws sat in a cafe in a tiny bay on a tiny Greek island this morning. A man asked where I am from and when I said Exeter he responded "Ah, Exeter City, the Grecians"!

In order to stop the interminable guesswork, here is the main plan of how SJP will look after the redevelopment. https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/siteassets/pdf/redevelopment-plans.pdf Mod please make this a sticky.

Assuming it goes ahead (they have undersoil heating, and say on Twitter it's OK to play), I guess we want a draw or a Coventry win tonight?
