It's an ECFC programme from 1971, hardly The Oxford English dictionary , Roget's Thesaurus, or Fowler's English Usage.

There’s also a historic map, which features St James’s Place, ie a place in the parish of St James, and an extract from the Grecian Archive, which makes reference to various sites in Exeter which use the St James’s prefix. In addition, Aiden Hamilton’s definitive history of the ground refers to St James’s Park throughout. Tell me, have you or Moxey ever been wrong about anything in your lives?!

They haven’t. My point is that a legitimate case can be made for St James Park, St James’s Park, or even St James’ Park. FWIW, a quick search of Google Images will reveal the station was once known as St James’ Park but, in recent years, it’s been changed to match the preferred format of the football club.

Plainly St Davids is wrong and lacking an apostrophe.

Not sure why this is being discussed on this thread but going by the official names:
St James's Park is in London
St James' Park is in Newcastle
St James Park is in Exeter

One of the best stories of the day is that GC ordered and ate 3 barbecue bacon stacks from McDonald’s after the game. What a man.

Why would Stubbs agree to leave by mutual consent? He's under contract and if he can't play he ain't going anywhere else.
A lot of players do if can be agreed, As I say just me thinking aloud.

So what's the feeling after the new man's first game? Team selection and substitutions worked well and they seemed well set up.
8/10 for me.
