    Seven years ago

    This weekend seven years ago we were in an even worse league position than we are now. On the evening of Sat 19 November 2016 City - were bottom of League Two - had failed to win a single league home game that season (and had only won 2 home league games throughout 10+ months of 2016)...

    Fleetwood away - build up and prediction thread

    A bit early for this thread perhaps, but I'm shortly off on a scouting mission to see next Saturday's opponents Fleetwood in action today in the FA Cup away to Kidderminster Harriers. (best result for ECFC? a draw and the distraction of a. replay after a tasty 2nd round tie in the draw?)

    the 'no match on Saturday' build up and prediction thread

    So no game for City this weekend. The club are rightly bigging up the non league alternatives and the 4th qualifying round of the FACup. Some interesting games there! https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/2023/october/non-league-fixtures-1410/ I predict that I will be at Kidderminster Harriers...

    October goal of the month..

    https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/2022/november/gotm/ Wow! This is a tricky month again. Academy graduates to the fore. Six out of these excellent 8 goals are scored by four different academy graduates. And the other two goals (Nombe) had huge assists from respectively Key and Stansfield.

    three games in a week

    Our record this season on the Saturday which is the third league fixture in a week is appalling. Our results are 3 losses all at home Cheltenham 0-1 Burton 0-2 and Oxford 2-4. Contrast the weeks when we play a Papa Johns game midweek and rotate. On the following Saturday we have won all 3...

    Southampton U21s Papa Johns

    City to put out their 'weakest ever' side in this competition, according to Matt Taylor (soon to be City's former manager:(). With nine games in October, including every Tuesday, and an injury crisis, obviously we don't want to risk players who are at risk of injury/overload. Competition rules...

    Goal of the Month - August

    Apologies for a new thread or if someone has already posted this, but GoTM for Aug is really tricky , with loads of strong contenders https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/2022/september/gotm-aug-22/

    So who will be MT's new assistant/the U23 coach?

    Who will be Dan Green's replacement? Vital role as MT's right hand man. Less to do on the U23s as we aren't allowed in the Premier League U23s this year. Interviews were IIRC listed for a fortnight ago. Dan leaves early next month. Someone to set up from amongst those coaching in the academy...

    Morecambe away - now Friday night

    Switched to Friday evening. Another one to watch on ifollow! I suspect this will further diminish the away attendance. Getting back from Morecambe at 10pm at night is not going to be easy for many people! https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/2022/july/morecambe-away/

    Port Vale away build up etc (postponed)

    No build up thread yet? Looks like the heart is being ripped out of our team with Nombe,Dieng now Hartridge and Sweeney out. With Covid about predicting the line up will be tricky....Covid tests before the squad set off tomorrow. Any body know if a Covid pass is needed for spectator entry...

    Best U23 line up

    If we threw everything at the U23 team we could put out a really strong line up - eligible as U23s would be Lee Key Stubbs Hartridge Sparkes Taylor Kite Collins Coley Nombe Edwards and that against a best 23 and over team would be a good game - who would win?. 23 and over team... Dawson...

    Five years ago..

    Five years ago this weekend......City played Carlisle,lost away narrowly to two late goals and went bottom of the table. Since then we have had a fantastic run in the rest of that season,clinching a play off place with a game to spare after a run of W16 D7 L6 to the end of the season for...

    Cheltenham away Tuesday build up ...Papa Johns?

    So this is a game we really need a result to maximise chances of qualification. However, its more about giving game time to those who need it. So the starting eleven to include Amond Grounds Daniel and Rowe , plus game time for Collins and Kite (and Edwards if recovered). Beyond that I've no...
