    Message to Both Boards.......

    This became evident during the protracted Tisdale saga. Tagg was far too much in awe of Tisdale who as a result had come to think of himself as bigger than the club. The fact Tisdale's management career is in tatters after being fired from successive clubs suggests otherwise. Tagg should have...

    Note that a certain Mr JF Tagg rents a property to Exeter City AFC for £28,759 per annum: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00097808/filing-history

    Will Covid save Matt Taylor’s job?

    Exeter City haven't dismissed a manager since 2003 i.e. almost 19 years now. Even our 2012 relegation was glossed over as an unfortunate thing to happen to a proper chap. If Taylor fails to get us promoted (I've always been vocal about my doubts) then we will almost certainly revert to the...

    Exeter City vs Bristol Rovers Match Day Thread

    Well that was refreshing, well done Taylor and the lads, blew them apart for twenty-odd minutes. Might have my doubts about Taylor but eternally grateful Joey Barton isn't associated with this club.

    Is Project 6000 and sustainability in L1 compatible with selling our "Gems"?

    And that is the route we have taken to ensure our financial survival. But the cornerstone of this policy is the recruitment of a squad who can challenge, otherwise it can fall apart fast. We had a lucky escape under Tisdale when a return to the conference was a real possibility and only avoided...

    Is Project 6000 and sustainability in L1 compatible with selling our "Gems"?

    The Slime seemed determined to keep Jephcote and he has signed a new 2-year contract. Recruited at the age of 14, he has attracted the attention of many higher clubs with his goals and performances. He scored a pretty decent late winner last night that sent the 10k fans home happy and secured...

    Leyton Orient v Exeter City Matchday thread 14/08/2021 3pm KO

    We haven't scored in three games counting and even missed a penalty. I think when the manager promises you a big summer of signings you have a right to feel disappointed after what has been served up and by whom. We can talk about how bad City were in the 90's when the club was flat broke but...

    Leyton Orient v Exeter City Matchday thread 14/08/2021 3pm KO

    Well this is not what was expected. Poor recruitment resulting in having to borrow a striker despite spending a six figure sum on unnecessary ground improvements. People saying that Orient are 'much fancied' this season but we are the club with a fantastic academy that have repeatedly made the...

    Padraig Amond in on a season loan

    It's a decent loan signing, can't wait to see him in action

    Is Project 6000 and sustainability in L1 compatible with selling our "Gems"?

    Well personally I'm just delighted that we at last have a publicly stated plan for progression towards League One as a trust-owned club, and I'm quite impressed with the CV and background of the person we have brought in to implement the commercial side of things. That said, the new scoreboard...

    Losing 1-2 at home to a bottom of the table Northern club is pure Tisdale, sort it out Taylor

    Time for a managerial change

    I respect those that played such a crucial role in saving the club all those years ago, however they were far too lenient with Tisdale - results AND behaviour/attitude- who, in turn, began to believe he was bigger than the club. Will they make that mistake again? Quite possible

    Time for a managerial change

    I imagine the majority of Grecians will want Taylor to have at least another season, especially if it’s going to be a busy summer in the transfer market (as has been stated). But the last thing the club and supporters need is another prolonged, bitter ‘divorce’ and so those at the top need to...
