    1931 Fund sponsoring women's team #31

    Hello all. Just a quick note to confirm that the 1931 Fund sponsorship of the women's team's Number 31 is a standard player sponsorship package - £250 paid having been raised via a sweepstake that some friends and I ran. Nothing was taken from the 1931 Fund treasure chest, which is safely...

    Exe Directory - issues 1 and 10

    Hello fellow Grecians I don't suppose anyone is nurturing an almost complete collection of Exe Directory fanzines? If so, I've found an Issue 1 and Issue 10 (big double issue) both of which were out of stock as back issues, so may just be of use to someone. if anyone wants either or both in...

    Get in the Grandstand for the 1931 Fund

    Dear fellow Champions of Devon Just a quick 'heads up' as we 90s City-slickers say to let you know that, for City's last two home games of the season, there'll be a little schemey thing to encourage fans to pack the Old Grandstand before it is, hopefully, demolished. The scheme will, by...

    One of the great nights to be a Grecian

    Five reasons why thie was one of the great nights to be a Grecian: 1, WE DID IT OURSELVES We’re well into our second decade of running the club, and this tie has helped us get recognition for it. We’re kind of used to being called ‘in many ways a model club’ but think about it: 7.55pm on prime...

    A sponsor for 1931 Fund next season?

    I'll ask ECFC too, but since the 1931 Fund is fan-led (indeed Exeweb led) idea, I thought I'd float something here. This year, the 1931 Fund will reach £70,000 paid to ECFC, having handed over a £15,000 cheque today. I'd really like to push to reach the £100,000 mark next season - but can only...

    1931 Fund follow traditional ECFC financial scandal model

    Yes, in textbook Exeter City style, the 1931 Fund has succeeded in having financial limitation imposed on itself as a penalty for being a bit rubbish. We have £20 frozen in our Paypal account, which has been 'limited' due to a breach of Paypal rules on gaming activity - the Exeweb 1931 Fund...

    Exeter City Office of Budget Responsibility

    I may have mentioned this before, but I don’t think that I (even I) have had the courage to throw out a back of a beermat idea for how it might work. So here goes. I would like ECFC’s budgets to be linked to our income in specified areas, and for progress in each of those areas to become an...

    Sercs games in FA Trophy, etc

    I was wondering when Liam Sercombe will play his 250th game for ECFC, which is fast approaching. Does anyone know if he played any non league games - FA Trophy, FA Cup Round 4Q or play-offs - which are missing from his Soccerbase profile (which only shows the 7 Conference games) By the way...

    We've come a long way - any views on next steps

    Over the past few months, we have seen the following key changes at ECFC, all of which I, personally, have welcomed with varying degrees of regret that the situation 'had come to this...' 1) Departure of Club chairman 2) Departure of Club chief executive 3) Departure of Club secretary and...

    The Balanced Scorecard thread

    In an extremely optimistic move, I'm treating myself to a 'balanced scorecard thread' which served us geeks, scarfers and plodders so well during various relegation scrapes in years gone by. It's probably not a thread for dramatic outbursts and revolutionary shoutyness, more for having a nose at...

    Graham Cummins - Number 31

    The transfer's gone through then, and we finally have a man for our Number 31 shirt; Graham Cummins. For this season - and quite possibly this season only - we've accepted the club's request to use our 1931 Fund money to boost the budget available for the more experienced striker that City...

    A 'shall we put the club up for sale' referendum in 2015

    While I'm in favour of supporter ownership of Exeter City, maybe, 12 years into our period of supporter ownership, we could do with a test in 2015 of whether the majority of Trust members are still in favour of this. Or would the membership rather sell most of its majority shareholding to a new...

    Trust Elections 2014/15

    Does anyone know when there will next be elections to the Trust BoS and, if so, how many places are likely to be available? I have been very reluctant to mess with the election process - whereby people stand as individual candidates - but perhaps the time has come to form some sort of 'party'...

    1931 Fund - 2014/15

    We haven't really consulted our members yet, so I can't confirm right now whether there will be enough of us to continue the 1931 Fund for a sixth season. We will send a note to our members over the weekend, but the whole scheme came about through Exeweb posts, so it's always good to talk on...

    2014/15 - the kids, plus whom?

    So, if we retain all of the following - all of whom were either homegrown or brought in as youngsters - then that would leave eight spaces in the 'first team squad' of 22 for more experienced players (how many current ones are under contract for another year?) and for other youngsters who...

    Do not go gentle into that good night...

    I know it’s more fashionable to coldly demonstrate one’s credentials as a pundit at football matches rather than letting yourself get swept along with the emotion of whole-heartedly supporting the team, but I recall how hard we had to fight to get back into the Football League and I’m not much...

    A quiet 'catch up' please

    I've been away from Exeweb for much of the past few seasons and all of this campaign, but thought after the Northampton game that I'd better pay a bit of attention to ECFC matters, given the seriously terrifying prospect of a return to non leagueyness. I've been to the Accrington Away (3-2)...

    Elliott Chamberlain #31

    Sorry to our 1931 Fund members who didn't get advance notice of Elliott Chamberlain's loan move to Bath. We'll get an email update sent soon. Hopefully, the move will give our lad a boost, but of course the array of attacking options that City have - including late Summer signing Dave Wheeler...
