Perhaps PB might realise it takes at least two goals to beat Exeter. Just saying
Two wasn't enough in October was it....?

Got to be worth a try.I only live two hours from Exeter, and if I thought it would do the slightest good would motor up and rally the troops as they got off the bus.
BUT, would I be allowed close enough; would I get a wi-fi signal on a phone to see the match from outside the ground, and would one supporter make that much of a difference?

I hope the shop starts stocking them.where can I get a scarf like that ?
is there something about "at least two goals" you don't understand?
On top of which, although he talks probably too much to the ref, he certainly gets in the refs ear and swings decisions our way over the course of a game, similar to Macca. Most importantly though hes constantly directing play based on the managers in-game instructions and organising the back 4 in JWs absence at the back. No idea if will stay captain on JWs return but either is fine with me

Ah, but I merely said that two goals wasn't enough in October. Thus at least three goals are required for us. Three's my lucky number, and fortune comes in threes. We just need a Massive Attack.
Where is Ricky holmes? Was our best player last game?I could go with that

What could be nicer than a trip down to Devon at this time of year? Nothing, especially if we come back with the three points!
Phil Brown will have had a week with the squad to try to inject some confidence along with his tactical methodology and we'll see on Saturday lunchtime if his wise old head was worth investing in for the run in.
Six months ago when the high-flying Grecians visited Roots Hall, we very nearly picked up our first win of the season until Alex Fisher's worldy equaliser in the fifth minute of stoppage time broke our hearts. Before the game we probably would have taken this as a creditable draw, but at the time it felt like a defeat. Had he scuffed his shot, or Oxley saved it, or the ref blown for full-time a few seconds earlier then we'd be 2 points closer to safety now - but then as the saying goes, "if my auntie had...." well you know the rest!
Phil Brown and the Exeter City team both made the long trip up to Barrow on Tuesday evening - one would hope that the trip was insightful for Phil, watching 2 of our final 5 opponents, and knackering for the Exeter team who sit just outside the play-offs.
Form-wise, there's not a lot between us so on paper anyway we've got a chance to get the three points we so desperately need.

In team news, it seems unlikely that Dieng will make this one, and I'm unsure whether White or Macca will be fit either - but if they are then it would seem likely that Phil, who loves an experienced pro, would recall them.
He made some interesting comments about Louis Walsh to Chris Phillips too so maybe he could be a surprise starter.
On the day that HRH Prince Phillip will be laid to rest, let's hope our league status doesn't suffer the same fate. Anyway, if you were wearing Phil's natty silk scarf - what would be the team you'd choose?
Have tried in vain to join Exeweb, the City fans forum to ask whether getting through that clump of trees on Well St in the north-west corner (check out the ground guide) affords a view?I only live two hours from Exeter, and if I thought it would do the slightest good would motor up and rally the troops as they got off the bus.

I've been thinking exactly the same - only two hours for me and it might be nice to have a decent drive for a change. Plus it would be a chance to dig out the pink cravat. But then a dose of sanity kicks in.
