No time to draw breath with the fixtures coming thick and fast. The team must be bouncing following our recent results and given our recent results against Exeter.
The Mem will be rammed on Saturday as all away tickets sold out and even talk on their forum about some fans buying tickets on the day to get into our areas of the ground.
A hard test for us but with the recent results, revenge and a packed Mem I am going for a 2-1 win
UTG !!

It will be tough.
Exeter will have had 11 days rest, during which we've played two away games with the travel and tiredness/knocks from playing.
Hopefully the substitutions last night were precautionary and everyone will be fit for Saturday - but our lack of defensive back up is a real worry.
I'd take a point if offered now, 1-1.

I think it will be a tough game BUT with the fans backing the team “more than in recent years” in great numbers and vocal…
I take a 1-0 win from Aaron.
I really think the fans have a Massive part to play this Saturday.
“Keep this train driving forward at pace”😜

To be fair, a point would not be the end of the world - Hopefully Anderton will be fit to play - Elliott Anderson limped off when he came off last night so hope he is fit to play. |

Not entirely sure of the accuracy, but with the promotional email for Saturday, it came with a photo of areas of the ground with availability.
assume terracing is generic, however all seated areas appear to be filling up quite quickly.

Got that email too. Very positive sign.
I can't make it, but after another 3pts last night, 1pt would be good.
Think its going to be tough, with the tiredness, injuries and expectations - but this team show they can deliver.
Need Grant back in contention. The CBs and Hoole to stay fit and maybe Nolan ready to come in for Finley if tiredness/injury/suspension hits.

Let's go for the jugular need another win, 11 days off ain't great preparation for a big match, with a high press continue to make sensible changes rest coutts after 60 mins, and use different strikers second half.
The Gas are coming!

Stupid question but as a first time season holder I assume there’s no danger I’ll rock up and find everywhere’s sold out? Games that are likely to attract a big crowd always make me nervous when there’s a combination of pre-purchasing as well as pay on the day. Never trust clubs to manage numbers properly and not end up with people with tickets locked out (remember it happening to city fans when we played them a number of years back … the night of Beadle’s double I think).

Although IMO it’s hard to know how much of an advantage an 11-day gap with no games really is - as I often think a team that hasn’t played in that long can look a bit rusty/off the pace when they play again. It’s gonna be a case of momentum (us) vs. rested legs (them). |

If we beat Exeter we would, very suddenly, be just 3 points behind them! It’s going to be a fascinating barometer of our progress. Can’t wait

Had a dream last night, turned up at mem, no ticket and couldn't get in, but still somehow watched the game.
We won 1-0,Connelly got sent off, broke someone's leg, compound break
Hopefully 50% plays out

This is a real toughie ,there form even better than ours recently though interestingly if you go further back there form leading up to last 8 was not so good,(nor was ours) on the positive side both Sutton and Mansfield were high up there in form table and we managed them comfortably, draw would not be end of world, win and it would really confirm our credentials! Exeter fixture always reminds me of a 4-4 back at Eastville all those years ago! Trying to remember our G/K, may have been Kite, kept getting caught to far off his line imo!, on the other hand may well have been somebody completely different!

Play like we did for two and a half of the last three matches with the same first XI & nobody in this league will stop us winning a match.
