We need to foster a ruthless "we're here to batter whoever is in front of us" mentality instead. We should fear nobody in this division.

NML was a player I was desperate for us to sign when we were trying to survive under Rooney, he only ended up at League One level due to personal problems, not footballing ability.

bimmerman Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 3 minutes ago, Crewton said: He gave Exeter at least 3 fks within shooting range for non-fouls, booked NML incorrectly, did the same to Adams after he'd been fouled repeatedly, didn't book any Exeter players until right near the end despite them leaving a boot on a few Derby players, ignored them waving imaginary cards in his face, and basically refereed Exeter far more leniently. Apart from that he was mint 🙄 Again, only seeing it from one side. The 3 fouls were fouls, he didn't give the multiple that Collins should have been done for, did a wrestling move on harper at one point, how he wasn't even booked for doing a stone cold stunner ill never know(he smashed it though, pulled it off flawlessly) . Didn't give the city penalty that was a penalty, he clearly was giving nothing to either team unless it was stonewall which is fair enough. NML got booked for kicking the ball away then dissent afterwards. Cashin should have been off, was the last man, booked him instead. Swings and roundabouts.

So I wouldn’t want to waste a man in a back three, even though I think Bradley has played well recently let him have a rest and play Saturday against a very physical Stevenage front 2. Also want to see CBT be given a chance from the start again with Bird and Hourihane let free behind him with Adams playing. CBT has only started one game against Cheltenham where our midfield 2 was struggling and he couldn’t express himself on the ball as much. Exeter fans have said their 2 wing backs aren’t very good defensively so let’s get NML and CBT going at them with 2 competent full backs behind them and take the game to Exeter. Management can’t be that hard ? MaltRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From assesment, I'd say you've gone native. I can't be arsed to go through every single incident, but if you read back through the thread, you'll see the opinions of those who watched the game on TV, which pretty much accord with how I saw it from the tin shed. hintonsboots, angieram and SKRam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shot. But GK should have saved it to be honest. JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 A good win and welcome 3 points. Had the run of the ball a couple of times which was nice for a change and didn’t get anyone sent off despite the ref looking eager to in the first half. Loved Adams’ little celebration after that goalmouth block. I like him - just what we have needed. COYR 🐏🐏🐏 Crewton and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a 3 Bird can express himself more. Simple as that. Warne doesn't pick Hourihane for his running. !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jourdan Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Exeter gave a really good account of themselves. They played some nice passing football, kept us on the back foot for large spells but never capitalised at any point. They are so very evidently a young side with a lot to learn. A more streetwise team would have run us ragged tonight. All of our added experience shone through in the end. We were calm, collected, and absolutely surgical on the counter attack. Wildsmith, Nelson, Adams, Bird, Mendez Laing, Barkhuizen and Collins all played important roles in differing ways. Mendez-Laing in particular caused all kinds of problems when we got him into areas where he can hurt the opposition. All in all, it won’t have got the purists doing laps of their living room, but going to an in-form side on the up and full of confidence and one who had beaten Peterborough only a week prior and delivering an incredibly mature and professional away performance is honestly something Warne and the players deserve massive credit for.

FlyBritishMidland Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Professional performance last night away to a team in form. 3 excellent goals, all well taken. I agree with Bird being MoM but it could easily been a few others. I think Adam’s has been key to an improved Bird. He’s been that reliable rock in front of the back 3/4 allowing Bird to focus on being further forward in the role Warne wants him to play. Fornah was signed for the same role but it hasn’t quite worked. Hopefully he’s watching and learning from Adam’s.

Archied Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Watched on rtv and really enjoyed what I thought was going to be a tough game , Exeter looked pretty in all but the final third ( were we happy to allow that ?) but it quickly became men against boys , great result from a solid performance and we are right in the mix for top two Caerphilly Ram, FlyBritishMidland and On the Ram Page 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
