But that's what Fordy wants Rupp to do. If he doesn't spend loads of money (bit of Stavros there) he isn't a good owner.

 

Did you get to yesterday's game mate?

 

A clue in his Avatar name perhaps?

 

Might have been a regular of Eamonn’s at the pub of the same name?

 

That’s very true…..happy days!

 

Good points and didn't we also have quite a few newcomers as well.

Hearing from those who went I also feel its 2 points lost however there is plenty of time to address the decision making aspect over the coming weeks.

All in all its a decent start and at least we got into positions where we could cause danger to Exeter. How many games have we seen over the last 2/3 seasons where we didn't look like we could penetrate a soggy brown paper bag.

Adams is known for his teams creating chances so I agree that inwardly he will be seething we didn't take at least 1 of them yesterday.

 

Again fair points, at this stage of the season the team is getting to know its individual parts but as the season starts to develop I'd expect that performance yesterday to be getting us at least two goals. Ultimately taking gilt edged chances is what gets us out of this league. If you want a positive its that we did create those chances.

 

There’s no doubt that on another day we could have easily won the game.
Stood on the terrace yesterday and looking back at the chances I think Gillead, Sutton and Angol might have done better.
For all his good link up play, I felt Angol was lightweight which is fine if Cook is the hold up man, but means Angol has to be more clinical in front of goal. He missed 2 sitters yesterday

 

Not even our idiot fans will be banking on us winning both games

 

Scared isn’t the right word respectful yes they both have probably a bigger budget and both are managed by good managers.
We can get good results from both but they will be difficult matches

 

Wouldn't call him quality either.

 

tbh I'd be very surprised if Mansfield and Orient have a bigger budget this season than us.

 

Assume this is the purpose of Laverys signing?

 

Threlkeld picked up a calf injury I believe.
Hope it's not a bad one,being assessed today.

 

Yep a kick on the calf, Adams didnt seem too concerned.

 

Eh

 

That's fantastic, how come they're allowed to show so much of the game, is it because it's away?
