  Well that was disappointing, I thought first half we rode our luck and it was no surprise when Exeter took the lead, they could of had another. They used their wingers well and our full backs were left 2 on 1 all the time, their goal was another free header. I didn't really see much of the equaliser in 1st half injury time but quite pleased to go in level. Selles made some half time subs and we were the better team for most of the half, Azeez missed what looked like a sitter and hit the post - he's getting the chances but not putting them away. I thought Elliot looked good and will be a star. Overall though not a bad day out. After…

  It’s always disappointing losing to an injury time winner but no real complaints. They edged it overall but a draw wouldn’t have been unfair. First half was abysmal, much improved in second but we’re still shotshy and wasteful (femi). These results and performances are going to happen with a young team, although a bit older today, it is what it is. My first trip to Exeter, really friendly bunch of supporters and staff. Nice club. Thought their whole terraced stand behind the goal was good when they scored. Traffic down was a bitch.

  Mixed bag of a game. Exeter on top first half but could have been several to either side. Button made some good saves. Savage and Ehib missed some clear chances. Second half we got on top after a bit but never looked like killing it. Exeter then took back control and won it in the death when the defence inexplicably fell apart. Button had no chance Dean - bit more moble than the other senior defenders, but fell apart at the end. Looked a bit lost at times. Azeez - still couldn't finish his dinner, but I think created the first. Some 14 year old in the home end shat his pants everytime Azeez went near the ball, so apparently he's…

  A bit of a gut-wrencher to lose like that right at the end. Either team could have won it and a draw would have been a ‘fair’ result. We started brightly enough but then got over run by Exeter, especially down our left. A couple of decent saves from Button but the goal was inevitable. We were probably fortunate to go in level as our goal was a bit against the run of play tbf. Credit to Selles for taking the necessary action at half time. We were much better second half and pretty much bossed the game for the most part. We had sufficient chances to put the game beyond Exeter but (again) we’re not clinical enough in our finishing.…

  Sounds like there were some positives at least. To turn round a game against a solid side is fairly impressive and a draw would have been very creditable Saw someone mention Azeez and nick Blackman in the same sentence on Twitter and not a bad comparison. Do think if he scored 1 he might just go on a run, but can’t keep missing these chances Anyway on to the next one
