Re: Exeter City Match Thread
I think I understand why Johno is stuck at this level. He doesn't seem to be able to bring others into play around the box. He takes too many touches and is either easily closed down or fails to get a decent cross in. Compared to Eagles, who doesn't show the same hunger for the ball but will bring others into play and therefore moves the ball faster than defenders can move. We created enough chances in the first half to win the game, and as goals change games......Exeter heads would have dropped and probably lost the game. Funny old game football. I was also surprised, subs weren't made sooner and didn't involve Rommy. I thought Clarke had a good game. We missed the drive and tenacity of Scotty Brown. Our best eleven is no doubt good enough to compete with any team in league 2, but it depends if we can keep them all fit and available to play. Last, Exeter defended well in the first half and would have been happy with a draw. We couldn't break them down and they took the few chances they created in the second half. I think their manager did more than our manager with less on the day. Still we move onto Burnley on Wednesday.......... but I hope we save something for Saturday and the Shrimps.......a more important game in my eyes!
