    The number of new players, plus a new manager means that we have little knowledge of how City will fare in a league match. Looking at the pre season, it would suggest we are in a better position than 2020, however Exeter away, is a difficult challenge.
    Reading @Kevin1954@Kevin1954 link, then they have also had a lot of change.
    I think who gets the first goal could be important. Not sure if this is going to be a several goal thriller, a narrow on goal game, or ultra caution and goalless.

    From what I have read a couple of key injuries and the recent sale has left them short but it's the first match and fans are back so it will probably push them on

    Agree. On the BT prediction league I have gone for a win, but that is based on the dreaded pre season form and not really knowing how Exeter will perform on the day.

    I had a bloody dream last night…woke up with the sweats. Not kidding!

    2-0 up
    2-2 half time
    3-2 up
    3-3
    and conceded after 93 mins 3-4!!

    That’s the only 7 goal thriller I need for this weekend!!

    I hate doing this

    I have a feeling we will have far too much up front and in the middle than them!

    Let’s see where we are at h/t?

    My prediction was the team and subs.

    Songo and Lavery are facts.

    That would probably be my guess, maybe with Eisa instead of Angol

    Plenty of forward options available on the bench. Likely defence line up, be interesting to see how they perform as a unit.

    Their forum reports their keeper is 6’ 11”

    That’s a long way to fall?

    Love how the excuses have started. We were flying in pre season. The resulted counted in your eyes and others.

    No excuses. Just agreeing with what you've been saying. I'm right, aren't I?

    @Bronco@Bronco could you oblige with your fisherman gif, please? :)

    I see your understanding of sarcasm is as good as your understanding of football.
