Exeter City v Colchester United Matchday Thread

[Avening Posse]

A win (hopefully decisive) would be great for confidence and morale just before the play offs. Also would at least help to settle down the negative vibes over the last week and hopefully foster some unity. I obviously hope any non-regulars who get a game today play so well that Tis has something else to think about UTC

Lets hope that Tisdale doesnt put out a scratch team and we get totally rogered! He might want to save his big guns for the playoffs. Is there nothing whatever riding on this match, like who we play in the playoffs?

It's 12c with a cloudless sky. The wind, which has been NNE is in the process of swinging round to SSE, which presumably going to drag some of the warm air that we've been promised (for weeks!) into Devon. If it does, it could be quite warm this afternoon by kick off - even into the low 20's perhaps. There's been no rain in the last 24 hours, and the sprinklers will deffo be on - the grass is growing at a rate of knots - so should hide the bald patches on the playing surface. I'll update at around 13:00.
As a complete aside I renewed my season ticket yesterday, so whatever transpires out of the Exeweb conjecture factory - manager leaves/chair resigns/ etc etc, I'll be there for another season of (sometimes ) scintillating football Exeter City stylee.......

Don't forget the players will be visiting the two side of the pitches for autographs and selfies at the end of the game.

Very wise to rest him.Brunt in?

After a very pleasant warm morning, it's clouded over in the last half hour. It's warm - 20c- but the wind has turned round to SSE and increased slightly in strength. Should be a good afternoon for playing football on the ground - and if Hant's view that Stockley seems unlikely to be playing let's hope that's what we get. It also might be a good opportunity to let a few of the fringe players loose (and I don't mean Ryan Harley). All in all a fascinating afternoon in prospect (he says with tongue firmly in cheek) and a fitting end to a season of missed opportunities.

yeah, thought it was a touch pointless having him on the bench for the pasat ? games and giving him NO time,, just shame he's a touch late to maybe ,affect our lge position.

 

[The deluder]

Not even on the bench. Nor any youth. Why rely on homer?

What no Brunt or youngsters at all?This is the sort of game to try out permutations before it's too late surely?Oh well, typical Tis if true.
