I can't see the game being anything other than the Saturday (and probably a 3pm as its not really "TV-able").

Exeter host table-topping Brum the Tuesday before and then host second place Wycombe the following Tuesday.

They may even rest one or two first-teamers because of it.

As draws go, I don?t think there?s a worse one. 🙄

Bromley with out doubt, logistics, facilities etc. etc.
But this one is crap, in fact frustratingly crap.

Looking at Tamworth?s pitch I would have said this would have been the worst

We always play garbage and manage to pick up at least two bad injuries on this horrible surface

May be a long way but at least it?s on the grass

Tis what it is. Barring a low ranked team at home there was no good / glamour tie to have. Exeter is as good as anything.


Our form / away from has been great so I'm really looking forward to it

Seen us win quite a few times there including scoring 6 in the reign of king Jack. My favourite game was when we won 2.1 and Mark Kendall saved a penalty. City fans were great the season we went down wishing us a speedy return. They had a good old fashioned fans bar. It will be great to meet up with my old mate from Looe, that was the last time I saw him.

The reign of Lee Richardson.

What about the 69-70 season who scored can't remember wasn't it a night game

Dont think there has been a mention on here of Gainsborough?s heroic win at Hednesford. Three nil down ,they pulled it back to 3-3, only to concede again, before securing a 4-4 draw. Three penalty saves ensured they won through- the keeper our ex youth player Dylan Wharton.

Trinity have signed a number of our ex players over the years, too many to mention. So there has always been a connection. And of course our very own Ernie managed them in two spells.

Can't recall but we stayed in the same hotel as the team. There was a wedding and music playing till about 1am. Must have kept the team awake. Next morning my daughter asked Richardson for his autograph and he made sure that the whole squad came up to sign the newpaper that had the report. If I come across it I'll post it.The Exeter forum has put the video of the match on their site. Some dreadful Exeter defending.

That was my first thought,our form away from home,they have looked hit and miss on the EFL highlights this season so I am quietly confident.
