I was just wondering if any of you could fill me in on what it is like to be playing in that league known to you as "League Two"?

Whilst us boys in Green have experienced Division 3 football never before have we played in this "League Two" division.

Thank you for any help.

Kindest regards, Devons Finest.
you will find out for your selves 2 years time when your in it.[y]

Atleast we still have more fans than Exeter at home.

To be honest Exeter will always be chasing our shadows, bless 'um

Are you actually proud of your attendances?

Only Blackpool below you! Did anyone see 'Secret Millionnaire' the other day?

If i had to agree with you we would both be wrong
Got speaking to a so-called "loyal" scummer today from the Devonport side of Gnome Park and had a little chat about your team and how woeful they are he fully agreed and in his own words " When they put out the season ticket brochures a little while ago to get us all to buy for next season mine was 1 of the first being thrown on the pitch" and " There's no way im going to throw good money after bad and as and when we do drop down as i know we are going to at some point they may aswell tear Gnome Park down and build something the whole city can be proud of "

And this guy has been supporting your club for 30+ years and a S/T since you went into the championship
Must have been hard for him to speak those words to a rival supporter and actually mean them

Personally i just thought the scummers have had their chance at the big time and have all but blown it

The BIG time, something you will not experience for along time

Just like yourselves - as long as Staplegun and Sluggy respectively miscontrol the budget and pick the team! [y]

Surely, it should be described as the "nearly" time. Flirted with the play offs positions but dropped back into a relegation zone. Poor cup record for a championship side. Not really a lot to cheer about other than being in level 2. Not a lot to get excited about.
