It's obvious, and has been for years, that 'cheats Do prosper' in the lower reaches of the EFL. Over the years, I've seen dozens of games where poor sides effectively ruin games by pre-planned, obviously coached time wasting. So, do we care? Can we do anything about it?
Well, personally, it...
Given the inconsistency from officials these days, perhaps it's time for a total review of the rules to make things simpler. I'll start it off:
1. If you're offside - then you're offside
2. If you get in the way of an opposition player, without trying to play the ball - then it's obstruction
3...
Some time ago, I remember a discussion about 'obstruction', whereby the then interpretation was explained as being something like : a defender following a ball is deemed to be in control of the ball, even if he's not actually touched it.
However, we now seem to have completely moved on from...
Just like to flag up what a great job the club are doing with their social media presence in recent seasons. As an 'exile' now living abroad, I had expected that my interest in ECFC, through lack of regular contact, would have invariably wained over time. However, what with Ifollow, the club's...
I'm seeing adverts for other clubs for an earlybird sign-up for ifollow at £110. However, the ECFC site only appears to be offering the full £130 season pass. Anyone know anything about this?

I reckon we should preserve any fit strikers we have for the important game against Chesterfield on Saturday. Give the youth strikers a run out on Wednesday. Would it really make much difference?
Anyone know the opening times of the club shop? I couldn't find them anywhere on the official site (might not have looked properly), but I need to change an away shirt on Friday - bigger size needed (there's no way I'm really an XXL!!!)
Interesting quote from Paul Sturrock -
"The rest of his game when he came on, apart from the goals, was a nightmare.
"His other six touches were all passes that went to the opposition, but that's what we've got on our hands.
"Hopefully his goalscoring knack will never be changed, but there's...
Am I the only one who's getting a tad annoyed with the creeping 'text speak' being used on Exeweb recently?
OK, so perhaps I'm getting on a bit, but we're not paying by the length of the message and I, for one, find it very difficult to read!
