Exeter City Yes or No

In my element the small city didn't win at Wembley, let them feel the pain haha. Sorry but I can't bear playing them home and away anymore, the novelty as worn out.

Please pass on my regards to Sturtz, Ade. :twisted:
It's a long way home to Cornwall when you lose......and other Sturts quote I can't think of atm.
There's a lot on Exweb claiming that they don't care. If they don't, why should we? Their next multi million pound selling will have had a zero knocked off his fee due to him having a mare. Wheeler though might have added a few notes to his but he won't want to leave them (they're all proper chaps don't you know) having so forcefully nailed his colours to their mast. At 21 he (Watkins) should have had the experience to have shone but unfortunately, like Grimes before him has shown he's a big fish in a little pond.
To many that have decried our academy, take a look at how many of Exeters has actually been shown up once they get the chance to play higher. Think on of players that have left Argyle and actually have made something of themselves. We get another £500,000 extra because we're in League 1 next year so will make up for anything we'll lose from playing them and now having lost us and Pompey, they've lost even more than we have.
Say it out loud, it's better than seeing it written down.....we're League one now.

Spotlight will gloss over Grecians defeat & concentrate on Chiefs victory Which by the way is well deserved good on 'emMonster Green":1amcz4uk said:
I am not too fussed either way over the result, but I felt for the young kids who travelled up from Exeter to support 'their' team with their parents.
At today's prices we take £10k from just 500 spectators so I would imagine it is the most profitable League fixture of the season. I reckon Blackpool's win will result in a minimum of £60k less at the gate. We then have the additional overnight team hotel costs of the away game at Blackpool plus the travel costs. In purely financial terms Blackpool's victory is bad news.Shm":3w1928cg said:
Ambition (or lack of) from our bloodstained friends in the north.
Quoted from Dontpassback on the 10 reasons to feel positive.
"Two reasons to be positive,we will have our new stand built and finished before Brent even gets phase 2 of the so called refurbishment started,and if we don't go up next season we will be back playing the green slime,because Brent won't be giving Adams any money to replace Carey once he has left! So the future is bright ,it's red and white !!"
Understandable but two glaring errors it seems.
Firstly, stage 2 of our grandstand refurbishment at the moment is debatable but even stage 1 would give us a greater increase in revenue than the SJP "Half Grandstand" and unfortunately for the stains massive they cannot ever join up the corners. Talking about SJP, really? Do you not luxuriate yourselves in our away end at HP whilst we have your poo hole at yours.
Secondly, "if we don't go up next season"! Already looking forward to more disappointment it seems. And you already know how much of Watkins, Wheeler and Ampadu's fee will be used to pay off Tisdale, Perryman and Tagg from their lucrative employment fees.

Thought there was a huge difference in the quality of the play offs this season and last season. No doubt there was drama, but last season 4 very good teams were competing, whilst this season, 4 very inconsistent, arguably poorer teams were competing. Big gulf between the top 3 this season and the rest of the league which I don't think was the case last season, the points difference suggests that as well.
Ah, silly me. I had completely overlooked the fact that £500k extra for being in League One was better than £500k extra plus a £60k from an Exeter home game against a Blackpool home game!!Shm":mozsm0j0 said:
