Crewe Alexandra v Exeter City Matchday Thread

Definitely will be happy with a point. Gotta try and control that midfield today. Need Law and Martin at their very best. Reckon it will be entertaining today UTC

Got a good feeling about this afternoon ... a hat trick from the big man. UTC

Agree with you about Law and Martin we have Lge 1 quality players who need to produce the goods in games like today's.

Perfect football weather in this neck of the woods too.

Crewe allegedly play a decent brand of passing football, the Barcelona of League 2 I hear.

We've been in that bracket before ourselves, particularly in the early/mid years of the Tisdale reign. If there's one thing we learnt from that period of our recent history its that we didn't like it when we were roughed up. So today we need the likes of Bowman, Parkes, and Taylor to raise their game and bully the opposition, hope for a soft ref, and stick it up them from the word go. 'They don't like it up em'

This is pretty much what Newport did to Swindon. However, while we were strong enough to stand up to Newport ourselves, we also showed that we could match Swindon’s passing game without having to be over- physical.

Excellent; he did a great job against Morecambe. His podcast is worth checking out as well.

I can never get the commentary on digital radio. Radio Devon always picks up the Argyle game.

City unchanged. Nigel on the bench for Woody. Think that’s a good call by Matt Taylor as the players deserve a chance to show last week was a one-off under-par performance.
