Depends if their fans can clear the ground of snow in time as to whether it will be on.

I've decided I won't bother going now.

Well I am going, I live about 25 miles or so from Exeter and the roads round here are attrociously icy and we had a foot of snow 2 days ago.

If its like it is here down there then I can't see it being on.

Im probably doing the taking wife and 2 daughters thing for the Peterborough game.  Which will be interesting.

And if Exeter is on Im driving from 'Nam if anyone needs a lift.

I'm going. Exeters fans were surprisingly vocal and I think being Boxing day we'll take quite a lot so could be a good atmosphere. Haven't been feeling very confident about the result tho.


Title: Re: Exeter Away

Any ideas when the pitch inspection will take place? It's -9 down here at the moment so still not convinced it'll be taking place but fingers-crossed!

As we have 3 people that aren't going to be able to go to the rescheduled game midweek, will we be able to get the match tickets refunded?

Cardiff Stadium.......fucking freezing....Cardiff looked Premiership bound and Coventry fans reckon their team is piss poor and IMO a typical Adie Boothroyd kick and rush team.

Special mention to some Plymouth fans who turned up in Haiwaiin grass skirts and coconut bras...

We may not have to face Ryan Harley next month.Speculation that Eexter may lose him in the

january transfer window.Brighton have had a series of bids turned down,other clubs may now

force Exeter's hand and test their resolve.His contract is up in the summer.


Title: Re: Exeter Away
Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, January 5, 2011, 16:28:11
Speaking of contracts up at Exeter in the summer, isn't Matt Taylor's up? He sounded like a good signing when it was rumoured we were moving for him in pre-season.


Title: Re: Exeter Away
Post by: donkey on Wednesday, January 5, 2011, 16:29:05
We should sign centre-backs from Exeter who are called Taylor.  It works.

This has now been quoted as happening on that awful transfer rumours site. 

As has the fact that Kezman is signing for Swindon.

I might go and start a few more rumours.

No...2 hours max by car.
But a word of warning....finding parking may take a while if you are getting there near to kick off.
