Yes he was and Mbete is cover for that side. By emergency I meant an injury to Jones or Bradley on the other side, assuming Jones would go to wing back if Bradley was injured.

Yes it’s a long one but just think if it was Plymouth which is another hour or so away. I am probably only 2 hours drive away but going on the train tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderlust Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Should be an interesting team selection, perhaps with a few of the cup tied players getting involved. Team that played on Sunday was well suited to the wide spaces of Wembley, but Exeter is a much smaller pitch - that may be ideal for someone like Shoretire.

Horrendous journey for Good Friday with people heading for Cornwall etc. 6AM for us. Sacked off the train & now staying over.

jayjayoghani Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Echo the comments about Good Friday traffic. We once drove north on the M5 on GF and all southbound was a complete car park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We once drove north on the M5 on GF and all southbound was a complete car park and vice versa we had Morecambe away on GF in 2016. Half fans got there around HT and some coaches gave up at Manchester and came back. Be careful what time hitting Bristol as Cribbs Causeway will be busy around 9.

Wullie Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Leave a 6am guys, get there early, do some sunbathing outside the pub (don't occupy the boating lake ), have a few drinks, get to the ground easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted April 6, 2023 Members Share Posted April 6, 2023 Interested to see how this one plays out. Two options - we are either caught cold with celebrations having taken too great a toll or we are so brimming with confidence that we pull off a memorable win. Hopefully the latter.

Hopefully the latter. 3rd option - its just another game, unaffected either way by the previous match 😊 Can already see the headlines if we lose - "Wembley hangover" etc - but we could have played Exeter away at any time this season and lost (or won, or drawn), they're a decent team and our away form is iffy.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 6, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted April 6, 2023 At least Exeter play football which gives us a decent chance. Wouldn't have fancied going to Burton 1st game back after Wembley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do lose here we are then on an awful league run. 7 games - 5 points is relegation form. We simply must get something & I think we will.
