Exeter City v Doncaster Rovers ('Appy as Larry) Matchday Thread

[globegrecian]

Tisdale "We were a goal up and had the ascendancy... they capitalised on two good crosses."

Yes Tis, but they didn't have Robbie Simpson up front did they.

They found themselves 0-1 down away to Exeter City and so changed their formation and won 3-1. End of.

It may not have been a 4-1 win for City, but guess who won the 50.50 draw!

No idea, who?

Overall, City played well.

The trouble is that Orient and Newport could be be coming into some form that could make City's position even more perilous.

 

[CREDYGRECIAN]

Even if we can't win the game there is no harm in taking a point - a draw against Donny would be a decent result

We've only drawn 1 in the league this season

Our position is one big joke,trouble is i dont see anyone laughing (bangshead)

The three seasons he was guided by Perryman: we can call them the "mobile years"

BTW I had the good fortune to be invited by a good family friend of Perryman to a private dinner with him and his family after being invited to SJP.......is was about 6/7 years ago ....Plymouth game that we won.
I must say I was hugely impressed by his intelligence,enthusiasm and knowledge.......so seems a no brainier that he was the driving force at time before his heart problem.

Which is lovely but he is now being paid a very good wage which he does not appear to be earning.

Orient aren't going to be in a relegation battle. I would be surprised if Colchester got drawn into it too but stranger things have happened.

I appreciate it's very early but looking at it Newport, Stevenage, Cheltenham and City look certs to be involved and I would suggest two of the four have experienced managers which know what it takes to drag their team out of it.

I can see a Morecambe or Yeovil getting drawn into it quite easily also.

I honestly think City have to be faves for relegation when you consider what is required to avoid relegation (decent home form, ability to rough it, bit of character/work-rate) I suspect City is bottom in all of these.

It makes sense that Perryman took Tisdale under his wing, given his Tisdale's young age and lack of Conference Premier experience. Also, Perryman is a highly accomplished pro who would be happy for 'Tis to take the praise in those early "mobile years"
