    The unnamed player is Zeli.

    He was fit at the start of the tweet, but broke down before the end.

    Acceptable, honestly.

    Two definite League Two-standard sides in an attacking performance with some clumsy defending on both sides.

    Nowt in it.

    Some of you really need to start understanding the game. Laughing at Bolton because they had a slow start which happens to lots of relegated sides. Bolton will be up there this season

    Exeter are doing well because their squad was settled. Bradford City had 14 contracted players and we currently are near the bottom and failing. Bradford City can't laugh at anyone at this moment.

    Saturday is a big game for us.

    I'll take that TBH. Stopped the rot against a well established team who've been flying.

    It’s a massive game today against tough opposition, but we’re gonna show that we are tougher and kick the sh** out of Exeter on the pitch !!

    We’re gonna go out there and score goal after goal and walk away with all 3 points !!

    Today people is the day we start our climb up the table !! We’re going to win the league and it starts today !

    COME ON CIIIIIITTTTTYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! :brig::brig::brig::D:D:D:D:D:heart:

    I don't think there can be many complaints about this game.

    I've enjoyed it.

    The only conclusion I can come to is he's Clayton's agent.

    Very fair summary. I think he's got a high ceiling. But what he really needs is a slatwart CB next to him. Stick an Andrew Davies or even a Rory type next to him: that's what he needs. That's what POC needs too.

    Pot and kettle, Park.

    You're always looking for any tiny thing that he does to show he's contributing. You don't pick him up on the things that are not going well.

    Last season you said the goals dried up when he got injured. This season he is in the team and not scoring and not even contributing with assists or chances!

    Your standards have slipped. You've gone from him being a goal scoring machine last season to 'good hold up play' this season. How much of that good hold play created chances or goals then?

    I applaud McCall developing and playing the youngsters this season, however, I just think there is too much inexperience collectively in defence at the moment. I would like to see us bringing in an experienced beast of a defender in the mould of Andrew Davies to bolster the back line and nurture the likes of Staunton and POC in the next window.

    I think it's been his best game to be fair.

    Not been offside, but still made runs in behind.

    Agree re the defence but I thought Donaldinho won us some decent free kicks today.

    We're not going to be anywhere near bottom two.

    Even with a few passengers and poor players in our squad, we're nowhere near worst in the division.

    to be fair it wasnt a bad game , I thought we'd collapse when went a goal down

    Chalk and cheese as far as effort goes to first few games and you cant really ask for much more than that from the players

    think well finish mid table then hopefully rebuild for next season both on and off the pitch

    A sublime goal and a lucky goal. That apart we hardly had a chance. Could have conceded many more. Ripped apart in the first half, tightened up in the second. Really should have lost so happy with a point. New blood needed throughout if we're to have a chance of going up but I don't believe we have the stomach for it behind the scenes.
