PS more often than not, the minnows win out in friendlies - they want it more. Can't blame them, up against quality higher league opposition. We beat Chelsea in 96 FFS.

As I said before it was your cup final and to be honest except for losing twice to Bristol Rovers you havent really got that much to look forward to now, (which was evident by you matching the usual gate of Fleetwood town without City's contingent!) as for us being shocking you were right, but as we have the finest manager below the championship were not too concerned, Sheffield Wednesday lost to Stocksbridge park steels last night and im sure they arent worried about being relegation fodder, its all about giving these smaller teams a day in the limelight and fair play to Torquay they played there socks off which when hearing the team line ups beforehand some of those Torquay players could have been really star struck but they kept their composure so all credit to them. Im sure a lot of those Torquay players were very keen to swap shirts at the end, something to tell the grand kids about I expect, its not everyday the big boys come to Plainmoor and youve got 3 in a week so fair play

And no that was not our biggest match in 3 year's ,nor was it our cup final,right enough of this honesty .

Easy,easy,easy:D
Cup final for you, warm down for us.

Simples.

You should have gone up last season and have chosen well with your new manager, you are rightfully Devon's No.2 club, unlike some I think the psfs are important and should be used to hone the side, Cheesy thinks they are for f*cking around with his line up and achieving a level of fitness against weaker opposition, I think the kinds of starts we generally make to seasons hold the answer to which might be the better way.

Looking forward to you boys battering the Gargs this season, just be nice if you could pull in a few crowds that didn't make me think you were still in the Conference.

Exeweb Rail travel HQ or so it seems!!
Well as a greek maybe you should care,two weeks from the season start and your team look's a million mile's away from being ready,now we only laugh at the City.
Does it? Ok ill wait until the actual season starts when it actually means something until I start worrying and if we are bottom of the league at Christmas then ill start to see some method in your argument! 5 years of constant progression so far and I'm far from worried.

I think it was more of their way of showing that they were real contenders for the No.2 spot in Devon!
