I would be happy with a draw here anything more than that would be fantastic

This is ridiculous now!!!

Trying to purchase a match pass again for Saturday's game (well in advance). Same rubbish as Tuesday. 

Logged into both of my accounts. Tried to subscribe, and won't do anything but divert me to my profile information page. I've got my card, email address and address on both accounts. I've even added my PayPal account to both. Still no luck whatsoever.

Had no problems at all for the Scunthorpe and Tranmere games following the exact same method. Tried on two different phones, an iPad and through the standard internet mobile browser, Google Chrome, Safari and Microsoft Edge. Same end result on them all. Clearly something wrong here.

We may well be sporting a new colour on Saturday I believe...

Something a little bit different than usual so I've been told

 

Let's just keep in mind that we'll lose games this season, and there won't be too many more difficult games than Exeter away, so let's not lose our minds if we get beat. This season will largely be about how react to defeats. I really don't see any side having it easy against us though if we turn up. If we're behind in games we have a bench to be able to change things around. It's the strongest bench we've had since the last century, in my opinion.

I wouldn’t go that far on the bench... we’ve spend a far few seasons in league 1 and done well so it was obviously much stronger then. 

Agree RE the match. It’s a tough game, one of the toughest and I would take a point now no question. If we are looking to go up this year we do need to be picking points up in games such as this. 

I’d make 1 change with montano in at left back as not been overly impressed with Fitzpatrick as of it. Expect askey to keep the winning 11 though. 

1-1 Rodney to score

So I’ve heard.

I’ve seen it. It’s a nice colour (a new one for us though I think) with what looks like a more subtle shaded pattern on the sleeves and front.  Reminds of the what they used to do with kits in the 80s. We’ve got 3 decent kits this year, especially the away ones. I wonder if the reveal will be today then?

We've had a better 11 as obviously we were in League One for a time, but still don't recall us ever having such a strong squad or subs bench.

I feel quite confident going into this game. I fancy us for a 1-0 win.

They were taking pictures of it yesterday with the players so it won't be long before we all get to see it

Assume will be worn tomorrow as Exeter’s shorts and socks clash with both our kits.

Looking forward to seeing this kit.

Tomorrow's game is a tough ask and they don't come much more difficult, I agree, at our level. They're an experienced and good, very well organised team. I'd take a point gladly.

I wonder what XI we'll go for? Is Oyleke fit enough yet to play a role? Who will play left back? It seems as if McKirdy needs a few more games.

The kit is being revealed at 5pm according to the club shop website

 

It's a shame that Randal Williams didn't go to Hull City a few days ago, and so might feature tomorrow. He's a good player for them and one of the better players in the league. Though they obviously have a number of other good players too, the likes of Bowman, Jay and Randall. They play 4-4-2 so hopefully we can get some decent possession in the middle of the park with our extra body there. If he's good to play for 60-65 minutes then I'd start with Oyeleke over Burgess.
