      Exeter had an off day. They were due a defeat.

      Exeter had the sun in their eyes in the second half

      Powell and McWilliams are rubbish.

      Don't sign youngsters. We need a big forrud.

      Hamshaw's tactics are rubbish.

      Er......
      Didn?t Hamshaw change the formation to a back 4? Isn?t that what people have been asking for a while?

        Excellent - really pleased for players, staff and supporters after a horrendous spell. Hopefully a couple of decent additions to come as we are wafer thin in the squad.

          We were excellent today and well done to the players and the management, we need to keep players fit that is the risk. Their tackles today were disgusting, how they didn't get more bookings is beyond me. The foul on Gore was awful and his arm in a sling, hopefully nothing too serious. The kick out at James was a red card it was wild and reckless, could have been a lot worse. MH states we need a squad, it is time for TS to support his manager in the next two days, two players is not enough and surely the owner can see that.

          I thought mcWilliams showed what he brings a high energy player that when he is playing well is a good utility player. Powell, well what a player, another assist and his work rate and even at 4-0 he was throwing his body on the line. Well done to Jules and Nombe the ex-exeter players they really played well. baptiste and gray also played well.

          What made a difference for me we played 35-38 minutes with a four, we looked solid, didn't need to boot it long and reduced the impact of their wide players, when we went to a 3 we were on the rocks until HT, the four laid the foundations for that result and well done to MH for setting us up that way. Overall an outstanding team performamce and very pleased for those that travelled that far, safe trip home.

            Well done Millers, played well......whatever the system was. ...........

            Roundwood strike again, Gore has hurt his shoulder.......
            Dirty **** their player, made sure he was fully taking Dan out, I hope it's just something he can shake off in time for next Saturday.

            I thought they were dirty players throughout the game.

                  Just found out that Exeter hold the second best defensive record in the league, which puts the result into perspective.

                  I was dreading the Cardiff game this Satdi. Can't wait for it now.

                    Well I definitely picked the right game to go to. Just home in Poole. Although the had twice as much possession we were clinical in front of goal. They were so physical espe?ially the foul on Dan Gore whi+h was followed up on a couple of minutes later. I’ve never seen us play so cleanly committing on 6 fouls to their 16. Just a couple of disappointments for me in that Nombe didn’t score against his old club and also that Martha’s run didn’t produce the icing on the cake in added time.MOM for me was Baptiste who set the ball rolling.

                      Anybody know what formation we were playing when we knocked those 3 goals in 2nd half just asking as MH has had a lot of criticism myself included with this back 3 obsession- when Manny came on for Gore did he slot straight in to midfield or did we go to a back 3, thus leaving midfield a man short?

                        Looked like a back 3 of Baptiste, Jules and Manny. Rafferty moved up hence his goal from open play

                          Correct ...but not too much up front he's not a forrud

                            Just logged in and thought it would be full of praise for the team but shock horror. The usual suspects are more interested in having a go at people who dared to criticise the manager. Some haven’t even commented on the game. Easy to sit at home and criticise loyal supporters from a keyboard isn’t it.
                            I’ve been today a very disciplined performance and well done to the manager and players. The support was phenomenal and a great 3 points. The system still is a worry but fair play we came out on top. A tough game next week but bring it on.

                              I?m travelling around Australia just now so checked my phone at 02.50 and we were 1up. Nervously looked again later and couldn?t believe the score. Great stuff!! Looking forward to watching the highlights. UTM!!
