Exeter friendly

[Moodybluebird]

Shocking goal to concede from a corner conceded after some fluent football by Exeter of a type we're incapable of.

Bob, you may remember a pre-season friendly against Newcastle which we won 4-1. Think it may have been the season we got promoted to the PL for the first time.

Now that was a wonderful exhibition of fluent football, which left me full of anticipation and excitement for the season ahead.

Judging by your post you probably feel the opposite of this and who can blame you. I'm not at all concerned by the result but our inability to impose ourselves (going by comments on here) on lower league opposition does not bode well for what lies ahead.

Yes. we were excellent that day against Newcastle and they were a little lucky to just lose by three. By contrast, every time I've seen us this season, it looks like we're playing our first pre season match, there's little sign of a progression from us and we don't deserve more than a draw from this match at the moment.
