This thread encapsulates how fickle and how generally reactionary football fans really are. One minute we are the most exciting Exeter City team in the last 50 years and the next we are the opposite. Sort it out Exeweb.
I think that's harsh. In addition to the numerous postponements, we have stopped playing 4-2-3-1 and moved to 4-4-2. Teams often come undone by being too attacking, but I think our earlier approach was worth it because, although it left us more exposed, it got more out of the squad. We have also lost Williams, who while not hitting heights of last season, is still a top league two player.This thread encapsulates how fickle and how generally reactionary football fans really are.

I say hang himof course the timing of the OP coincides with us having dished out a few hammering.....but since the day OP we haven't won in over a month.
Should we blame the OP and all the positive responses for tempting fate?
I saw us lose 7 times away from home that season when I was living in Sheffield. Never saw us win once. However, all the games were entertaining (I seem to remember a 5-4 defeat at Scunthorpe and maybe a 4-3 at Peterborough), and that team was really something to watch, with the overlapping Hiley and Vinnicombe like modern day wing backs (in the style of their manager Terry Cooper who was a bit of a ball player as a left back).The 89-90 team never lost at home, thread closed.
About to turn 34, thought I was over thatI think the OP was a bit premature
