As the players left the pitch following their warm up, our senior steward gave some instruction / advice to Tommy.

Just before K.O, Tommy spoke with Shez as they walked down the steps to the pitch, and I’m pretty sure he was sharing the stewards comments with him.

Tommy always hangs out at the top of the steps, but regularly commutes between pitch side and the tunnel, up and down, up and down, and so on, all game. 

Today was different, as he had clearly been told to observe from elsewhere. 
He spent most of the game seated with the supporters on the Chaddy side of the main stand lower.

Anyone know what was that all about?

Plenty argy bargy to be expected.

Why? Is Anthony Gerrard coming back just for this one?

Stretching this to managers.

Poor Lee Johnson. Sunderland lost today and he's looking more and more like the fifth telly tubby. Not so much Tinky Winky as Twatty Fatty.

Twatty Fatty Jnr

Curtis Main released by Shrewsbury...

Now he was a real grafter!

Surely, we must have enough material for a new thread - ‘Ex staff and that’?

Vera is now an ex player.

Eagles is here quite rightly to feather his own nest but I can’t for the life of me understand why he’s had so little game time.

Surely he’s already proved to have more quality than most of the 15 midfielders we have so why is he a permanent fixture on the perch? Sorry, bench.

Anyway, who is the latest to get their p45?

I saw him just after half time front row but I did look to see where he was towards the end so I could judge Not bumping into him on the carpark.

 

Interesting. 

He and his entourage left the North Stand early, I glance at the clock, 84’, and thought it was a bit odd.

Dear all

 

We are now "sold out" with regards to tickets for tomorrow's event....well done and thanks

 

We are asking if anyone has booked tickets and are unable to attend now,  that you cancel your tickets so others can attend

 

To do this, please go back into the Eventbrite site and cancel

 

Thanks and see you all tomorrow

 

 

How many tickets did we "sell"? 

"Gummigan Done" offers an alternative perspective.

All the best Cammy, I liked you when you were playing for us.

It doesn't half wind me up when tho opposition score at BP and then huddle and cuddle for what seems an age before returning to their own half for us to KO.

However, tonight, we took that to another level and absolutely milked it big time x 4.

It kind of put the referee's totally inept performance overall into perspective really in that on each occasion, he didn't even bother to chivvy us back to our own half.

Having said that, I think I would prefer for him not to ref us again at all this season, or at least until he learns how to use his whistle; but more so his yellow and his red cards correctly.

It'll be 9 then 'cos me and Mrs Moustache are going. I get to very few games these days due to work, so (in a slightly masochistic way) I'm looking forward to this.

How about putting it in a slightly different Moustachistic way?.....

You are ‘growing’ fond of the idea, looking to make a ‘shaving’ at the turnstile, and hoping for a ‘fantashtic’ result?

Probably just wearing it to start a convo with a bloke or two. I know a girl who does this, great way of attracting length apparently. 

I could understand you logic if she wasn’t wearing one....

Interested to know if Billy Q still follows us home and / or away now he's not employed by the club.

No malice at all,  just genuinely interested.

Thanks all.

Feel free to bury your head in the sand if you want...

One would have thought that Shez, Wellens and Bunn will  talk to their “colleagues” if asked.

Exeter have only won 2 in 10 and are 22nd in the 6 game form table, we are lying 4th in the form table so I'm expecting nothing more than a home win, set the bench mark with the effort and intensity last week and no reason to expect anything less this weekend, added bonus of going above them with a win.

Momentum should be with us if we start unchanged.

Expecting a stronger bench as well.

I hope its cold and pi$$ing down again on Saturday.

COYB!

Voted MOTM for Missile even with a hat trick for O’Grady. 

 

All played really well but special mentions for Maouche, O’Grady, Nepo. 

You saw it as I did! 

In every respect!

Missilou - again - was excellent.

Im a big fan of Maouche - does the simple things right.

Ive slagged COGba off all season - happy he’s put me in my place now.

Nepo has been superb recently.

 

And credit to Bunn. Again, I’ve frequently criticised him, but he’s proving me wrong week after week.

Bang on this.

Everyone put in a big shift today, but for me, Missilou was beyond fantastic.

Clarkey was carrying a knock at the end...

Same 11 to start next Saturday please.

Instead of posting on a messageboard why not ring OACT up and discuss with them?

 

A quick search gives their number as 0161 785 5176. As OACT and OAFC are different companies the problem might lie there.

I get that there are two different companies here, but having been told that I could pay at the ticket office, I don’t feel compelled to ring someone to discuss why they couldn’t provide me with £11 change.

I posted this on the messageboard to:

1. Advertise the event on behalf of the club as I’m not sure it has already been mentioned on this forum. I’m happy to be corrected though.

2. To warn any mums and dads etc that if they do intend to call at the ticket office to pay, then they need to take the correct change with them so as to avoid the wasted trip which I had.

To be held on Monday 17th December, 6 - 8pm - Ten Pin Bowling, Sandbrook Park, Rochdale.

Ages 5-13

Members £9

Non Members £11

Refreshments included.

So, as advised, I arrived at the ticket office to pay for my son.

I was turned away as I only had a £20 note, and asked to return later with the correct money.

I jest not!

Should we appeal that red?

Otherwise I think the team will go down to Maidstone on a minibus rather than a coach.

Just 1 win (11 v 10!) in the last 8 league games.

Notts Co on Tuesday - will it be win or bust for Bunn?

Wednesday 24th October 24th - Monday 26th November.

Almost 5 weeks will pass with just 1 home league fixture plus Everton u21 in the Checkatrade.

That' includes 3 consecutive Saturday away days.

Given the alleged October payday fiasco, I dread to think how such a distinct lack of cash flow will have on Lemsagem's ability to pay November's wages on time, or even at all.

Will a hand out from TV broadcasting rights keep us alive for another month or is it just another nail in the coffin if we are overlooked?
