In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
The first visit since November 1980 for The Tykes.
Down to -4c during the night with a heavy frost. A wise move to cover parts of the pitch yesterday afternoon.
Home wins have been thin on the ground recently. This will be a tricky assignment against a team who will undoubtedly be around the play off mix at the end of the season. Another home draw in the offing

With another heavy frost overnight and temperatures likely to be very low tonight, there must be some doubt that the game goes ahead. If it does after the disappointment of losing at Portsmouth, after such a good first half, we really need to get a win.

Time for Nombe to get a couple of goals and show what a quality player he is at this level.

Hoping for 3 points tonight, assuming the game is on. Nombe hat trick in a 3-1 win.

Will be watching on iFollow, hoping for a similar performance to that at their place. Friendly bunch of supporters so I hope they get looked after on their visit to Exeter.

What a contrast in the weather between our two matches against Barnsley this season.
Ironically it was unseasonably sunny and warm up North in October but is set to be freezing cold in Devon this evening.
It was great being there a few months ago to see Jay score his first goals for us.
Let’s hope he has it in for Barnsley again and bags a couple more tonight in another City win.

Met Office states Exeter not dropping below zero all day so can't see any problem this fixture going ahead

All depends whether areas of the pitch froze overnight.
