    But pointless the staff all wearing masks outside, agree if the physio is treating an injured player, but otherwise its pointless

    So the LB has the 2 only shots on target :D

    If McCall was watching that he would be thinking how on one earth didn't we finish above them two poor sides. Gary Bowyer- damn awful manager.

    Rahic was to blame for that along with others if you remember Stuart wanted to keep him and others after our Wembley Final.

    Yeah I thought that was a massive mistake mate. Law was a decent player for us and for me would have got into our midfield last season. I think we should maybe consider getting him back. Is he out of contract in the summer?

    No one for getting ex players back but Law knows the league, done well and can help players around him.

    The alert level has today dropped from 4 to 3 which gives the scope for further relaxation

    Yes bringing ex players back is looked at as a negative by many fans but as you say he's been one of Exeters better/consitant players over his time there Stuart knows what he offers and Nicky says McCall has been the biggest influence on him as a player, I just wonder if he has a 12 month extension to his present contract.

    I always found Law to be underrated and a little disrespected in his last spell. He wasn't everyone's cup of tea but some of us did appreciate what he was good at. He's certainly excelled at Exeter by winning 2 POTY awards there since joining and has been much more amongst the goals than he was here. I'm not one to clamour for ex players to return but due to Stuart returning and our lack of midfielders, I would take him back.

    I watched the second half of Northampton v Cheltenham and was surprised that Paul Anderson put in an "appearance" as a sub but Mark Marshall stayed on the bench.

    Championship play off final on August the 4th. (On a Tuesday at 7.45 at Wembley -with no crowd..Rubbish)

    So we must be getting closer to a start date.

    Increasingly confident I will be back in my seat at VP. Originally said October but going to revise that to September ! Probably last week of. Threat level now 3 it will be 2 in August. Everyone knows who the vulnerables are if your one of them like TS's Mike Parry said "you self police". Probably down to a metre on social distancing by then. So its going to be doable for at least 6000 of us to watch a game in VP. Season tickets should be on sale for July including a "mix of options" depending on your status. Looking positive to me. ?

    I'm not sure I'd be quite as optimistic as you with the threat level, but between your end of September and @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler's November date, I don't think you'll be far off for a restart date.

    Oh, and as a "vulnerable" myself, I agree, we need to take some responsibility for ourselves. I only hope that the authorities consider those of us who may be 'unable' to attend at first and offer some sort of iFollow option.

    Not sure it will be level 2 in August. Most people are not back in offices yet and until we can people back at work we won't really know what true level we are at.

    I would say we have around 8k season ticket holders.

    So don't know how the club is going to say which 6k can go? Survey?
