My apologies if this is a bit early, but thought I will have a go at the match day thread.
I'll be 1 of the roughly 1200 gasheads making the the short trip down the M5 and I'm quietly optimistic about this game.
Head to head
Games won: 31 Games drawn: 32 Games lost: 31
I'm predicting a spicy affair after Bartons comments in the pre match presser, which I feel is just him creating mind games. I also feel this is a game Barton really doesn't want to lose and will have the lads fired up! I expect 1 or 2 suprise inclusions in the starting line up.
They've had some good results, but also some questionable results so they are beatable.
I'm going 3-2 to the gas!

Absolutely zero confidence in the team right now tbh.
Exeter are at least as good as last season, we’re worse atm. Would be delighted with a point.

I shall be heading off from Bournemouth after my lucky cereal of Marmite on toast and a strong coffee
Scarf hanging out the back window, my lucky gas top hidden under several layers as I’ll be sat in the home end
Always an interesting affair when you can’t shout or show any emotion WHEN you score.
I haven’t been to the ground since I was about 10 (40 years ago!) so looking forward to it. They were the best side I saw at the Mem last campaign, played good football, well organised.
Nothing to fear. Except going down 4-0 after 20 minutes.
We can’t be that bad again. Can we?
I’m going for a battling 2-2 draw.
UTG

UTG The home end isn't too bad (behind the goal) was in there about 3 years ago. Company I worked for looked after their ticket machines and scanners so we used to get free tickets, travel and beer. I still wouldn't belt out Irene though 😂

Last 24 seasons.
At St. James Park.
Exeter City victories - 7.
Draws - 4.
Bristol Rovers victories - 1.
Looks like an undeserved smash and grab 1 -0.
Or the usual drubbing.
On the day.

Just can’t see us getting anything from this one. Our defence is way too leaky to keep Exeter out. And no matter how hard Collins, Loft etc try they can’t keep up with the rate we concede. I’m going for 3-1 Exeter.

If we can defend, we have a chance
Odds are that in reality that means us coming home empty handed
Priority for the club right now is to build a proper defence and system that makes us solid at the back. That then gives the rest of the team licence to play with confidence.

The score will be what it will be .
Joe talked about getting the ball in their half quickly so a top heavy line up i suspect.
Loft.

Come on you bottle jobs, it’s going to be tough but we shouldn’t fear anyone. Saying that I’m going with a 3-1 defeat.
Setting off around 10, I’ll see you all in the boozer behind the away end!

Na, No chance! Burton beat Exeter 2 - 0 we beat Burton 4 - 0, so logic says gas win 0 - 6 UTG!

I think we are going to get battered.

Think Exeter will dismantle us with ease.
That said, for that reason, this is just the sort of game we'd actually win ironically.
Despite that, in theory I think they should heat us by at least 2 goals and probably 3+.

Stuck at an in-laws wedding all day and night. Hoping for something from the gas to lift the gloom COYB
