This could be a rugby score. At least that would allow us to put one over the bar for 3 points

And Collins misses again! He offers nothing to the team at all. Poor man's Nicholls

Have we actually got any fans down there? They deserve a refund if there are.

How do you support a Club like BRFC - Exeter's bitch.

How do you support a Club like BRFC - Exeter's bitch. Our seniors, U23’s and U18’s have all taken a bit of a beating from them now. They’re just a lot better run than us at the moment.

I think this is already our worst ever result in this competition (EFL Trophy) assuming no 2nd half fight back?

I really hate this competition and would always be happy to be down 5-0 at half time.
However when you’re actually 5-0 down at half it’s suddenly not that desirable

Who honestly gives a f**k about going out of this waste of time cup? Who gives a f**k? I guess those on here who were thrilled to bits after we beat Cheltenham's kids in the first group game. Personally, I'm not fussed about this competition. I would say though that I am disappointed that we haven't learnt a single thing from the league game. They like making fast starts so you would think we would stay strong early in this game. Yet we found ourselves 3-0 after around 13 minutes this evening. No idea what the tactics were for this game but it's all wrong.

Poor man's Nicholls Can't be bothered searching old threads but when we signed him I said he was playing well for FGR as was given a free role behind the strikers. Probably due to the fact that he couldn't - as some FGR supporters have told me - hit a barn door. Tom Nichols wasn't a bad player he just wasn't a striker, Aaron is the same. Tried it before, we just haven't learnt. Play him where he has shown he is a decent player

I don’t know why anybody is surprised with this especially when the line up was announced

21 changes for both teams by the way. Both teams significantly weakened.
I don’t care about this competition at all but this is unacceptable

Imagine being on the periphery of the squad, getting a chance to prove yourself to the manager, and putting in a performance like this.

Think we have problems than anyone thought, really can’t believe most of these guys are professional footballers, just said that Zain Walker first played 3 years ago , he unbelievably is got worse, Hargreaves another, they are just stealing a living. Rovers should do the right thing for them and pay them off, so they can carry on with their lives

I’m watching the game on I’follow and enough is enough it’s total crap throughout the side. We are NOT competing and JB needs to take a long look at the way our club is represented at every level as this is a shocking example of his mismanagement.
No excuses ! As Exeter have a low strength side out of youngsters ( the goalkeeper is only 16 for example)
As for the rest of our coaching staff they should be ashamed
Either way UTG …..but I really can’t wait until this management team and so called coaching brigade we currently have, leave the club - if this is all they can produce and deliver its a complete shambles. They had months to sort this out !!!

Last time Rovers were 5 down at half time was on 27 November 1937 at Queen's Park Rangers in an FA cup tie. Rovers were thrashed 8-1.

I just hope now we have enough sense not to bring on Nicholson, Evans, Finley or Anderson. Just can’t risk losing any of them to injury on a game that was lost after 5 minutes.
