Great match preview chat from Joe. Grecian manager Matt Taylor looked comfortable (super form team) and looking forward to the game in his preview. I think we must keep it tight at the back. Win the midfield battle (all battles),gain possession and from that I think we'll naturally create chances. Oh and might as well enjoy it!😉 Hell of a prospect! Up the Gas! Great, really? So the pitch is a boxing ring and when that bell rings we punch Exeter on the nose to get revenge on ’em for beating us last time. The bloke is permanently punchdrunk and sees everything through blood-spattered glasses. One day it’s war rhetoric as he refers to the team as his army. The next day they’re street fighters in his own image. He’s getting more dictatorial with every new victory and he’ll be sucking up the adoration today. I hope he falls flat on his nose and Exeter give him another lesson in how to play football. Similes and metaphors from a passionate person galvanising the supporters. Even the one-eyed should be able to recognise that. I suppose you’d rather have the asinine muttering of Garner or the antiseptic thoughts of Tisdale, complete with mask, surgical gloves (to keep the nasty germs away) all topped of with foppish clothes and a silly hat. Some people! |

Forgot to mention Barton’s silly hat. I hope he gives you all a nice Nazi salute.

Having suffered the defeat at Exeter (a birthday treat from my son), I certainly want revenge. A metaphorical punch on the nose would do nicely. UTG |

A good advert for 4th Division football. No lessons needed, or indeed given.

All things considered a decent point.
I thought Grecians were a wee bit sharper than us , their 10 day break while we played Stevenage and Orient showed abit.
Lucca deserved his MOTM.
Should Rovers of had a penalty for a hand ball,I had a poor view?
Great to have a big Mem crowd.
Our current form keeps us challenging.
On to Barrow at the Mem Tuesday night!

Just got back.
A really entertaining game of football, both sides had many good chances and a draw was probably the fair result.
Exeter City look a very good side, and we matched them throughout the whole game. We started the brighter, and had the best of the first hour I would say. Towards the end we were struggling and lost control of midfield. It did look like we might lose the game right at the end, as Exeter had a couple of really good chances and definitely finished the stronger of the two teams.
Having said that, it was an excellent point against one of the better sides in this division. It keeps our unbeaten run going and keeps us on course for the playoffs.
Luca Hoole had an assured game, with great defensive positioning and good distribution with some flashes of skill. Harry Anderson had good game out on the left.
Really good to see a packed Memorial Stadium again, the South West stand was pretty full. If we can keep the good run going, and the attendance stays high then it is promising to be an excellent spring for The Gas.
Onwards to Barrow and a must win game at home.
