Stevenage v Exeter discussion thread

[Legohead]

Matty and the lads are back on the road again for Tuesday night's encounter with Satanage. So what can we expect? In terms of team selection, performance and result?

Satanage surprisingly, have the leagues tightest home defence having only conceded 8 but on the flipside, they've also only scored 10 at home which is amongst the lowest in the division. They've won 4, drawn 4 and lost 4 of their 12 home league games. They are in good form too, their defeat to us at SJP a few weeks ago being only their second loss in their last 11, the other one a 4-0 trouncing away at Carlisle. Which, as we all know is not an easy place to go and get a result.

My heart says that we must get the 3 points from this game and we'll win 2-0. However, my head says another 0-0 draw ala Harrogate where we fail to provide the cutting edge needed to earn the win.

I'm being positive and going for a 2-0 Grecians win to get us back on track. I've also signed up for this today on ifollow so very much looking forward to that and it's a SEVEN O'CLOCK kick off. COYR!

I am hopeful of incoming(s) tomorrow, but assuming new players wont start, I would go for a starting XI of:

(Gk) Andresson
(Rb) Caprice
(Rcb) Sweeney
(Lcb) Hartridge
(Lb) Paige
(Rcm) Taylor
(Cm) Jay
(Lcm) Collins
(Lw) Sparkes
(Att) Bowman
(Rw) Key

Subs: (Gk) Maxted, (Cb) McArdle, (Lcb) Parkes, (Cm) Kite, (Cm) Atangana, (Att) Seymour, (Att) Fisher (if he is still here).

What - no Nicky Law !

It would never happen but if the wingers aren't available then I would do a diamond:

Andresson
Key Sweeney Parkes Page
Kite
Taylor Collins
Jay
Bowman Ajose

Enough quality out wide with the fullbacks. Get the ball on the deck in the 6 yard and Ajose should be there.

What no new signing !

 

[Red Devon]

Make as few changes as necessary....we need to find a rhythm to our play again, continuingly chopping and changing Key, Sparkes Page and Hartridge around doesn’t do anything to help that...same lineup as Saturday except Taylor for Nigel and then MT must decide who to replace Law.

Depends who we sign. Might be too early to bloody a newbie but maybe if they know the team

I thought Joel Randall is going to be fit again? If so, he will surely play. Sparkes to drop out, he looks out of sorts at the moment.

Would be good to see Joel back we’ve certainly missed him.

Is that a tease, Martin?
