Conlon out is a blow but Garrity was excellent midweek

 

[hellogregory]

Unchanged from our toothless display against Colchester. Oh this is going to be fun

 

[shoddycollins]

Unchanged starting line up from the Colchester game

Abrahams continuing in preference to Toure or Mampala. He looks like one of those players who might get a goal and then go on a run to be fair, He gets in good positions.

 

[Chris FGR]

Few changes for us, McGee, Bernard, Stevenson and Stevens back in for Thomas, Moore-Taylor, Diallo and Aitchison.

[Bottega Don]

3 at the back again, 0-9 when using it under Cox.

4-0 Rochdale today

 

[Simpo]

Now then, this side could be absolutely lethal on the break. No real striker though. Hope returns to the bench after isolation, Bowden misses out as he starts his.

Unchanged XI for the Os from Tuesday night, was feeling fairly confident for this one, but now that devonlad says Exeter are undoubtedly the better side and he's seen all our new players play 16 times in the past 2 weeks I'd probably take a draw.

How’s concrete Rod McDonald been for you?

Starting with Seymour up front doesn't fill me with confidence. I'd take 0-0.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Looks like there’s been a smash on the A120 which is holding up a lot of our travelling fans. Colchester is a miserable away day.

A14 and A12 all day long surely

Mediocre at best. Had a few gaffs last season, but to be fair he played well first game of the season and looks a bit fitter. Still think we will need better as expect the calamities will return.

Was he nicknamed concrete rod because he runs like he has concrete on his feet?

Looks like we have a few injuries.

Yeah but Dieng starts for you and Amond on the bench is always a threat.
On paper our best 2 strikers are out, something tells me everyone in the ground today would settle for an entertaining draw.

Hope not!! got you in my acca to win.

That’s a shame, had a slow start at our place too

Umm no haha he wasn’t, he was really solid

Me too as I thought we were a good price, but accas are tough this time of the season.

Still riding high from putting £40 on Denmark 2-1 Czech Republic and England 4-0 Ukraine doubles at the euros quarters myself!

 

[kieran_vale]

Sounds a bit of a shambles for fans trying to get into VP. Queues going back quite a long way to get in to the Railway Paddock and only two turnstiles open. Think the club could do with looking at that. Last thing they need is to put off any newer fans from coming again.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Genuinely thought I'd had a stroke after reading this.

Reads like he had the other sort of stroke while writing it.

 

[EricSabin]

A14 and A12 all day long surely

May have been the A12 I only saw it briefly on Twitter.com

 

[Boz]

Rovers seemingly have gone to a line-up mirroring Vale’s. Sounds like the hosts having the best of the early exchanges.

 

[BogDaddyO]

Os 1 up against the Grecians but Exeter are still...*checks notes*... Undoubtedly the better team

 

[Casey]

Sigh

 

[shoddycollins]

Always like to check opposition forums during the game for diversity's sake. Hope Swindon get their commentary sorted soon so I can start reading the Robins fans' views on the game rather than their views on our commentary.

 

[kieran_vale]

Sounds like Vale came flying out the traps and came close through Rodney hitting the bar but Tranmere coming more into it.

 

[Chris FGR]

1–0 up against run of play but we’ll take it.

Haha, yeah me too. Not got a clue about the game as apparently your commentators are a couple of biased wind up merchants. No idea how accurate this is.

Exeter asserting their dominance even further I see.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Exeter really underlining their superiority by giving the Os a two goal head start now

 

[denzel ecfc]

Game over already. If you'd care to check my posts this was obvious.
Maybe a pasting might wake us up

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Suddenly all us at the Bescot so expect Walsall to score.
