    Cheltenham Town tickets wanted

    Have started this thread early in the hope that some kind person can help me get hold of a ticket (ideally 2 - but don't want to push it). Please PM me if anyone can assist. Many thanks - Dave. (Will be in the home end if all else fails.)

    Cambridge United Home - Discussion Thread

    What were you expecting to happen? The game to be called off because there's a possibility the pitch won't be playable tomorrow? Travelling any distance to matches, particularly in winter, always involves an element of risk. If you're not willing to take that risk then don't travel - pretty...

    Chiefs on the brink?!

    You're dead right we would MJP. I grew up 5 minutes walk from SJP, the place holds a lifetime of memories for me and doubtless everyone on this forum. However if we aspire to become that established L1 club with the ambition to match the growth of the City of Exeter and its surroundings...

    Welcome Gary Caldwell - new manager

    Exactly this. The club must show ambition and strive to achieve. Ultimately there's no point being in League 1 if we're resigned to never reaching the next level.

    Wycombe Wanderers v Exeter City Match-day Thread

    Quiz Question: Aimson and Aitchison scored for us yesterday - two players whose surnames begin with the same two letters. We also recorded this alphabetical quirk during our (most recent) promotion season. Who were the players and what was the match?

    League 1 News 22-23

    Plymouth can win the Champions League for all I care. I've supported Exeter City in every game they've played since I was old enough to be aware of their existence. I'm certainly not going to start supporting the opposition in future matches just because the result might, in some way, hinder...

    Is there something wrong or not quite right?

    time will tell wether aimson makes a success of it, I know he’s got his work cut out getting the lads up for the next few games though They're professional footballers. How do you 'know' this?

    Exeter City vs Ipswich Town match day thread

    Ant - All business investment decisions are made based on projected future returns (ie assumptions). I think the 'huge mistake' would be to stagnate rather than explore all options to increase ground capacity. By the way - you probably don't realise this but we're old friends. We went to...

    Exeter City vs Ipswich Town match day thread

    If we are genuinely a club 'on the up' with any sort of ambition - we absolutely have to find a way to accomodate more than 7238 for a sell out fixture. No easy answers to this - I get that. But as a city/region I believe the potential for 10000+ gates exists and we have the nucleus of a team...

    The Next Exeter City First Team Manager Thread

    KN - a man in his early 40's who until recently coached/managed our Under 18's. Nothing at all wrong with that, it's a key role at the club, and from what I've seen he seems a genuinely decent intelligent bloke. The necessary attributes to take our club forward include, but are not limited to...

    St. James Park - Championship Ground

    Agreed. This is a valid debate. Ultimately there is no point being in League 1 if you don't intend to get into the Championship. Clearly there are major practical considerations associated with SJP - however if we use this as an excuse to limit the club's ambition, we lose the excitement of...

    Exeter City FC v Cheltenham Town FC Match Day Thread

    Sorry sent prematurely! Full message below: Yesterday illustrated how urgently the game needs to address the blight that is timewasting. Football is part of the entertainment industry, I do not want to spend my free time watching grown men behaving in a pathetic, frustrating and cynical...
