Re: Wade Elliott after Exeter defeat

After listening to Wade’s earlier match reports I nicknamed him “Wishy Washy Wade”. He was so indecisive. Yesterday after watching the match at Exeter I hoped he would be factual and straightforward. He wasn’t. He just doesn’t seem to see the matches as the fans witness. But above all yesterday I fe...

DUFFY v ELLIOTT

I watched the match at Portsmouth with total dismay. We were playing a mid table team but we made them look as if they were stars from the Premier League. I also watched the Barnsley match when before the game Duffy was with his players, coaching, kicking the ball about. What a difference between hi...

Match Atmosphere

When we visit other clubs, before the match they play music, songs etc that encourage participation from the crowd. It creates a “bonding” atmosphere. Clubs play fun music when they score. Can we do something similar? Rap music doesn’t inspire togetherness, we need songs like Hey Baby, Silver Lining...

STOP WHINING AND WHINGEING

At the beginning of the season we would never have dreamt of reaching the play offs. Michael Duff has reinvented our team. The display at Northampton was amazing. Bigger and better teams than us have blown out and not reached their goal. With the limited budget he has he has worked miracles. I am lo...

THE REFEREE TODAY

My husband can be very biased and always disagrees with the ref.
But today he was so right, it was one of the most deplorable displays of refereeing I have seen for a long, long time.
It was a good game spoiled by an incompetent referee.
Shame.

No disrespect to the young man, and I hope he does well, BUT he is not experienced and has spent the majority of his career in very low leagues.

Well, we did read in the match day programmes from the beginning of the season onwards that we would not be relying on loan players and only recently Mr Baker said there was money available for Gary in the January transfer window.
So is there money or not ?
