Exeter Tuesday

[extaffyjim]

Ok, the 'big' game on Tuesday. All the talk about players taking their eye off the league ball because of it has left a slightly sour taste in the mouth. Still, would be nice to win it.

My first trip to a Conference team to see Ricay. Have we ever played at an ex-league stadium before? (not counting Aldershot).

Any prediction, line ups etc? Did Ross play yesterday? He looked a bit fecked when he went off last week.

Should be a good day out whatever happens, but i cant see us winning to be honest. Im sure it wont be for lack of trying though.

I'd be very surprised if Pat doesn't return to the starting XI... Leon hopefully OK after split nose, Forbes was holding his back at regular intervals yesterday after he landed badly trying to keep the ball in. Assume Game still unlikely to play, Johnston not eligible for this one, Nathan cup tied.

Not exactly long on options for this one!

I think a lot depends on the side exeter field. In the last game they rested 6 players that played against man u, so i guess if they are to be at full strength then these 6 will be playing. I just hope we play 100% better than on saturday.

[Andrew Turner]

I have just spoken to the Club Secretary at Exeter at the Weather today has been fine.

 

We will be allowed access to the Centre spot bar at the ground.

 

Advised we would be taking about 100 supporters which she was quite surprised about.

 

The futures bright the futures BLUE and WHITE.

Any news on whether there will be segregation, and if so where we will be?

[extaffyjim]

According to fans on their site it will be segregated, we will have the uncovered terracing, plus a handful of seats. Away capacity 1500 apparently.

[Iron Webbo]

Yep, poor view, cold and, if it rains, obviously wet.

 

Try to get in the stand if you can - bit dear tho'

[extaffyjim]

Nah, standing behind the goal in the driving wind and rain, thats where the action is. Only poofs sit in the stands <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

For some of the younger ricay fans going, the bar staff in the Exeter bar are very hot on ID. I'm 25 and OK I don't look my age but I was asked for ID much to my annoyance when I was there in August.

 

Cardiffbtfc, make sure you have your student ID card because you'll get in for 6 pounds rather than 11.

 

The stand behind the goal is very open, with no covering but if you want to stand you'll have to go there. The stewards are very officious and don't like you standing in the seated areas.

 

Also try the pasties in the club bar. To use Mark Flag's words they're "huge".

 

Good luck.

Cheers Yellow. I carry my student card with me everywhere, never failed to get a discount to an away match yet.

Thanks for the tip off about ID, will bring my drivers license with me

So what odd's on Simon getting a beer with-out the ID Check...Evens?

[GazzaBTFC]

I was wondering that...still, he got in for half price last season when we played St Albans...can't have it both ways

[CANV EFM]

[extaffyjim]

Safe trip to everyone making the long trip down. See you down there!
