My time is now up with @OfficialECFC I just wanted to thank the manager, all the staff, all the players for the wonderful time that I had, thanks to all the fans for the lovely messages.. Couldn’t be happier to end it on a massive win.. All the best for the rest of the season

Does anyone know whether it's possible to pause the match on iFollow, or even start it late from the beginning?

You can rewind on it so, yeh

Currently lying in fifth, a win tonight could elevate us up to second with other results going our way, although looking at the fixtures not overly confident of that happening

Newport (who we can't catch) are away to the Vegans (who we can catch), ideally a draw tonight would claw the exiles back within our grasp (although they do have a game in hand on us as well)
Cheltenham are also away but to Bradford, so unlikely turnover of the form book, but it does happen look at the mighty Grecians at Valley parade, anything other than a win for Cheltenham and we could go above them if we win tonight
Cambridge are playing tomorrow night at home to Moneybags Town so again another unlikely upset but .......

All this of course dependent on the mighty Grecians winning against the team that broke our unbeaten streak last year at SJP.

I follow booked, beer in fridge, roll on 7 o'clock

Yes, I do it quite often - which is necessary with putting kid to bed etc! Best to pause the game at kick off. It does sometimes have some buffering problems, but generally it works fine.

Newport (who we can't catch)........

Must be the surprise of the season them being up there and everyone chasing them.
Come on City narrow the gap.

 

[grecian-near-hell]

They are going great guns at the moment, but it is a marathon not a sprint .....

Listing those clubs got me thinking, if we thought staying in the fourth division was bad this year OMG what about next. All our "localish" clubs are up in the play off zone or above, (Vegans, Exiles and Cheltenham even Leyton Orient with a trip to London) you then look at what is at the foot of the third division Wigan Burton Shrewsbury Bristol Rovers (although you would imagine Tis might pull something out of the hat) Rochdale so even less southern than this year potentially. We do need to get out of this division (autos please)

Maxted is back.

Maxted, decent shot stopper however he won't come for the crosses the Ice Man was coming for. He's often glued to his line when balls come into the box.

Anyone know when Ward is likely to be back ?

I think this will be a tough game, Grimsby are underachieving imho.

Let's hope Maxted is fully fit... shame we couldn't prolong the emergency loan for one more week
