| Most of those 630 appearances were in the non league/ kids football. At least when city go for the conference title next season, you're now signing players used to playing at that level |

Do remember that these volunteers actually own part of the club, so incomparably different.
What's happening to your ground anyway, wasn't it supposed to be finished years ago? Seems to be an absolute shambles at the mo. Yeah its staggering along but should look decent when finished. Could have been worse, we could have bough a cut and shut off Barnet or pushed the boat and built something shit that doesn't even cover half the pitch |

Well... 10 years on nearly and it's still an absolute dive and unfit for use. What happened with all that temporary stuff harry potter bought for your one big game? Now that was tragic. |

| I see I was bang on the money with Ajose. May as well hand us the title now. Our midfield, forwards and keepers are good enough to compete at the top end of league 1. A bit of a mediocre defence, but when we're up against sides like yours we don't really need a decent defence. |

Stupid place to put a football ground then isn't it. The location is pretty good with how close it is to the city centre, but yes - A problematic location on the logistics of the structure. |

Pre-Beeching - pre privatisation it was an eminently sensible place to put a football ground, since it has its own station. Until South Western Trains, now part owned by GWR realise that there's money to be made by stopping trains from/to Axminster and Honiton at SJP it will be an underused facility. There are plans to extend the up platform at SJP because of the massive increase in passenger numbers using the station. Anyway, as Geezer observes it's also usefully near the City centre and the bus hubs. The fun really starts on the railway when Chiefs and City are both at home.... |

I went a couple of years ago and it was about 10-12k and was near capacity- don't know if they've expanded since? |

Don't hold me to it Ali but I think a new hotel at Sandy Park is first up. https://www.exeterchiefs.co.uk/news/sandy-park-hotels-vision-of-the-future Nothing has happened regarding the ground enlargement for a while now so I imagine that will follow only when the hotel is finished. https://www.exeterchiefs.co.uk/news/2012/stadium-plans-revealed A couple of years ago ?? I thought you and some greenie chums called in a fortnight ago ? https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/9359373/travellers-exeter-chiefs-car-park-demand-money-leave/ |

| Ha. Your fans laughing at us on social media because we couldn't score against Truro in our goalless draw, yet you couldn't score against them either, you also conceded. Fantastic start for Lowe! |

You really expect match comments from ATD greenies ? Far too busy with their favourite pastime of jabbing pins into Ian Newell dolls. |

| Whilst last night's result was disappointing, its not the end of the world. Lowe is trying to implement a new style and it will take time to adapt. It's encouraging that Lowe wants to use our youth players more, as Adams seemed quite reluctant. We do need 3 - 5 signings, and it would be good if we could move on some of the offal we signed last summer. Last season we did our transfer business early and 90% of the signings were shit, so maybe the patient approach might be better for us.
Exeter are ahead of us in preparation for the season as Taylor has been in the job a year (despite the losses of Pym, Boateng and Brown). I think city have signed taller players to give a bit of backbone to a team that tailed off in the second half of last season. Although I did take the piss about the Warren signing, he's been signed partly for his leadership qualities. Argyle have signed Joe Edwards who has captained several of his previous clubs, but we probably need a few more leaders. |

| The reality is that our squad is so shite and the club has been literally run into the ground on the footballing side over the last few years and that improvement isn't going to happen over night. My advice would be not crowing at the city scum because we will be lucky to match them this season without a major cash injection that we obviously haven't got. Your average green is feckin deluded. |
