Match Thread Away V Exeter City Saturday 6th February 1.00pm (with Poll)

Gameplan is to play on the counter by the looks of it, otherwise I would've expected Donaldson to play. At least we have that option now though with some real pace up there.

 

Bags of pace today.
Lets see how the newbies do remember they are match fit and weather permitting we have a game Tuesday so expect changes again.

 

Well, I don't think any of us could have predicted that starting 11.

 

No Rowe or Cook to replace him is a worry but we have players with pace who should keep their backline on its heels. Wonder if Vernam and crankshaw will interchange positions throughout the game.

 

Probably all got injured on them bloody plastic pitches !

 

Oh dear. All of a sudden I think we’ll lose this.

 

It's whether we'll be able to get it to stick though or if it will just keep coming back at us

 

Just as predicted. Soak up pressure and hit them with pace.
Morecambe did it.
Gives a few a good rest before Tuesday.

 

Looks sunny and dry to me.

 

how many clubs , could cope without Novak , Rowe, Cook , Evans , Clarke ,Ismael.
Lets see if we can. Its a bit gutting to be honest.

 

Weather looks great. A few sandy patches on the pitch but very nice conditions

 

Woah...not looking forward to this now as much as I was an hour ago.. !!

 

Why have people been creaming themselves over the new recruits and now they are added, all confidence is gone!!!

 

Exactly. We've brought these lads in. It's their opprtunity to step up and show us why we've signed them.
A good test for T&S. A few enforced changes. Another challenge for them to prove their credentials.

 

I wonder when we last selected a league team with oldest player at 28 (if my quick check of the website is right). And most of them are under 25.

Step aside Busby Babes, the Trueman Tweenies are in town.

 

Will be interesting to see how we cope with the change of formation and injuries. Real acid test for everybody on the playing side.

A good test, a good barometer of our recruitment and management team, to which I'm intriguing by.

Players out? Any chance Covid?

 

We must have had players told to self isolate? They’d be on bench otherwise.

Can’t see us winning this without a proper forward. Will take a point right now.

 

Thought same. Has to be Covid for all four to not even be in squad

 

Because key players are missing

 

Cook took a knock last week apparently
