Exeter City on this day

[Athelstan]

Rare for abandoned games over the years.
Grimsby 1972(a)Fog.Shrewsbury 1991(h) waterlogged pitch.Swansea 1992(h) Floodlight failure) FGR(h) 2018 waterlogged pitch.The ones I can recall.

Another abandoned match was away to Dagenham & Redbridge in December 2008, that one due to floodlight failure. The Grecians were losing 1-0 at the time but won the rearranged match 2-1 (I really should post the fuse back to them, it's been twelve years).

An email from NLM reminds me that 10 years today was our 3-1 win at the Valley. Think that was the day that it was £5 entry - presumably so the SE London massive could watch lil'old Exeter be despatched in a half-term goal bonanza. Seeing 20,000 stream out before the end whilst 1,000 of us in the away end went nuts was an amazing day.

One of my favourite ever away days, especially for a 'run-of-the-mill' league game.

Great shout! 10 years alreadÿ....
The day of sleeping giant Charlton's big 're-launched' and boy did we p*ss on their chips!
Without a doubt the best £5 I ever spent watching City!

It was indeed a great day. We put in a fantastic performance.
Although I generally dislike London, I've always liked the Charlton supporters, who are a pretty friendly bunch.

Thanks for the link which I've explored. Hadn't seen those records before, can't find them going from index on grecian archive, is there a link there or are they a recent addition.
