    According to Adams Andy Cook is the only definite player who won't be available come Saturday, obviously Angol won't be available with his 2 yellows but it sounded like the knocks players took on Tuesday night won't keep them out of the squad.

    I imagine Robinson will the lone man up top tomorrow. Perhaps Vernham plays just off him. I expect to see Rideleigh back in the squad. Perhaps Songo will be moved into midfield. Also may see a change of system an Eisa deployed if Adams thinks hes fit enough to start

    I'm down for this match, my last one at Valley Parade in 2021.
    Hope that Canavan wins the toss and City play towards the Kop in the second half.
    Exeter are hoping their yellow cards from Tuesday wil be expunged.
    If they are, I think City could argue that Angol is eligible to play as his were 2 yellows not a straight red.
    I notice that the Northampton manager complained that the referee at Exeter had been at fault in their match at Bristol last week. He kicked the ball to a Bristol player who took a quick free kick which led to a Rovers goal.

    How many subs are we allowed on Saturday?

    Let's start with the important questions.

    I don't get the benefit of a dropped ball if it hits the referee what was wrong with the old rule where a referee was part of play being on the pitch.

    What do we expect from this game?

    “we dominated the game, if we had taken our chances we could have won”

    same old broken record?

    So the cordwainers in town this weekend!

    Going to be a tough game, but starting to get to that time of the season where we must win our matches at home.

    Although l may have a different view to @Fordy117@Fordy117 in respect of winning away, we must start winning at home.

    Points not ‘what ifs’ are required.

    Draws which we should have won are nevertheless two points dropped.

    Hope we come out of the blocks like a 100 metre sprinter. Get them on the ropes.

    To give us some comfort zone we need two clear goals and then at the least controlled game management.

    I do believe the team do go out with that intention, but if you don't stick your chances away we let the opposition off the hook, I think we'll get all 3 come Saturday.
