Just a reminder that we are collecting for the Exeter food-bank at the game this afternoon. Almost any tinned or dried food welcome, but please try to make a conscious effort to give something. Whatever your political views about the need for charity starving isn't a very good start to the New Year.

Good on you David. Hopefully it has been well advertised in advance and people come prepared.

I take no credit for it, it is a Trust initiative. As to whether it's been "well advertised in advance and people come prepared" we shall see. You can always stop at one of the supermarkets near the ground to stock up on basics or even from one of the shops nearer the ground. It's a worthwhile and helpful initiative.

Far away across the field
Seemed like quite a few donations, when I added mine to the pile.

We took a very large amount of donations to the food bank at the Trust stall, including some very generous cash ones.

Thanks to all who contributed.

Point noted about the signage, but we were very busy running the stall so had no time to generate signs.
