Exeter City v Port Vale official matchday thread

[Sexton Blake]

Ah Archie Collins, don’t know what you’re missing till they’re gone.
Boring old draw on the cards today? Just hope the defence doesn’t choose this game to make its customary howler.

I think most of us knew what we would be missing and this is one of the areas where the Board and possibly GC have failed to act positively.

Archie effectively moved side ways no doubt better money but we have missed his midfield contribution and leadership.

We should have made the money available to match the Peterborough offer and looked on Archie as being one for the future.

Wildschut and Aitchison upfront

Well , it’s what a lot of folk wanted and few alternatives.Maybe our defender’s absence will work to our advantage.

No strikers on either side. This should be fun.

First one to make a mistake loses…

Never liked Port Vale since Norman Hunter had his leg broken in a 5-3 defeat at the Park

Don't think it was all about money. Not really horizontal. Same league, but it's equivalent to going from a Brentford to a Liverpool.

Good job it isn’t next goal wins.
They’d probably still be playing at Christmas.

Apparently we offered Collins and Key the biggest deals in City’s history. It wasn’t just about money. Peterborough have a realistic chance of making it to the Championship, we’re facing a relegation battle.

Looking forward to seeing that film at the flicks later this month
