Good save from their keeper after Slew had a good shot from outside the area! :D

Would be a miracle if we came out of this with a point, they're all over us

Attack,attack attack. We seem afraid to push forward! If we leave a couple up on halfway line, their defenders have to stay back. As I write, they score.

Well, can't say it hasn't been coming. We were never going to survive that amount of pressure. Sat back, sat back, sat back... :cry: Forest Green Rovers again.

They have gone up 2 gears, must of been some bollocking at half time. We need to get the ball to Carlos so he can take some pressure off the defence.

If we keep aimlessly hoofing it out of defence, then it will keep coming straight back. How is that obvious... again? Go for a bloody two goal lead rather than defend a one goal :cry: :cry: :cry:

This is so frustrating. We were every bit as good as them in 1at half. Why do we try to defend a 1 goal lead?

Err... yes, I did. If you want to look back through the forum, you'll find I said the same thing back then.

At least Phillips is willing to have a go putting crosses in, the rest of the team are far too slow

Decent first half, terrible second half. Every single player was poor second half, maybe Phillips was the best of a bad bunch.

On the positive side, Exeter are a good side and I'd have taken a point at the start of the match.

Phew! Almost conceded right at the end.

A good point. Hard working side. Draw is fair enough.

38.2% possession according to iFollow's statistics! :shock: :o :shock:

2-2 is the only stat that really matters though. :D 8-) :D

Phew. A really mixed performance but that’s a good point against an Exeter side who are probably the best side we’ve played this season in my opinion.

Good result against a top side.We dug deep in the second half and could've sneaked it near the end. 9th in the league ready to pounce on the play-offs! :D
Don't worry be happy!

Great point against them, and a draw probably a fair result. Carlos and JS, looked cooked early in the second half, understandably so. Maybe fresh legs earlier would have made a difference??? Roll on Sun. COYS.

Thought that was one hell of a game! Some real ups and downs, definitely 'one for the neutral'.

Thought we were the better side in the first half. Barring that free kick in the first min or two, we had pretty much all of the chances. Should really have scored before Carlos got in, but I suppose we made up for it by going ahead with a 'low xG' strike from Hendrie (for those partial to a bit of xG). :lol:

Second half was a similar story for the season - showing zero composure on the ball and getting ourselves pinned in, making an equaliser pretty inevitable and deserved for Exeter who were very good with Nicky Law on. Thought the Diagouraga sub was a good one and swung the game back in our favour for the last 10 mins or so. We weren't lacking defensive cojones or anything like that, just needed more quality on the ball to get ourselves more of a foothold in the game.

Could have maybe sneaked an equaliser at the end, but then they very nearly got in with the final action of the game so can't complain too much!

I think overall a draw was just about a fair enough result. When Exeter switched it on in the second half, thought they were the best side I've seen in L2 this season - they had lots of possession and were super effective with it, attacking in a direct way on the deck.

Overall, pretty happy with a point from that. We've now played every side above us in the table aside from Newport and from that we've won two, drawn one and lost four. We've had a tough start!

Excellent point against a good team but we need to stop conceding 2 goals a game if we are going to remain top 10

17 points from 33 not a bad return though

We are leading now lads so lets sit back for 45 mins and get battered :? Rather than lets take the initiative go out and get another goal then they will need 4 to beat us . :roll:

DA was very vocal in the delight of our first 45 minute performance.

Having read the report by The Doc it would appear that there is a slight difference of opinion.... :lol: but what the hell.....it's another valuable point in this strange season.

Excellent.
