Was going to try and traverse the M5 traffic from Exmouth and make the game. In the end thought better of it. Just as well judging by most fans comments on the game.

Where are you based, old fruit? I confess that I went walking on Dartmoor rather than use my ST today.
Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
We had two golden chances but missed them and thought the ref had a shocker in the 2nd half particularly - thought we did okay today for a side playing for little against a side playing for everything
Didn't cause us much trouble at all apart from the goal.
We appear a work in progress and I for one am quite excited about next season - can't wait
Just watching the WBA forest game and two players one from each side got booked and gave away free kicks for similar tackles on Davies both of which we got nothing and the first of which led to the goal

He tried to keep Vaulks away from the long throw-ins until desperation took hold.

No we wouldn't. We'd be 18th, Peterborough and Barnsley would be virtually relegated and we'd have a game in hand over Hull and Birmingham below us with us still being above Reading and Bristol City.

Just a holiday old bean. Looks like you made the right decision.

So just 4 points above third bottom Birmingham then, who we play in our final home game.....that's looking over your shoulder big time.

I think that is an excellent analogy.
But SM has to be given the summer to shift out players and bring players in and get a decent pre-season.
Jury is still out on SM, but he can hardly be blamed for the 'scraps' that are on the pitch having inherited an extremely unbalanced and limited squad caused by successive managers stripping out pace and flair.

What game were you watching ? It wasn't Cardiff v Luton that's for sure.
Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
I've said it before and ill say it again,if we dont get a ball winner and a playmaker in midfield we are going nowhere. As far as im concerned Doyle has been ok but never a Whittingham and Vaulks is a liability. How he has not been sent off this season i dont know. We just do not create enough chances,even at home. Defence need sorting too. Hugill has done ok but not the answer. Come to think of it we need a new team.

The first half was pathetic and the second half got slightly better.
