FFS 1-1 Despite all our pressure, we do not seem to be able to dominate sides..... extremely frustrating.

COYY

Listening to the TUFC commentary. Is it just me or is the co-chair Mark Bowes-Cavanagh really irritating as a co-commentator? Constantly talking over Ian who is describing the game for us who can't see the action. He thinks he is in the pub by constantly making remarks when Ian is talking.

P45 for Carson?

He's come on and made terrible attempts to stop crosses on his wings that have resulted in goals

Hopefully we haven't picked up any knocks, a lot of players needed treatment

That should be a huge wake up call to the owners, we look 5 or so players short

2 pts dropped

Ian with all his ums and ahs is hardly a good commentator. His comment, you can see xyz...no we bloody can not, it is radio not TV. Ditch Ian and have Dominic and owner do the next away match at Chippenham.

We needed a minimum of six points from the two away matches and got only two. We have been knocked off the top of the table. Hopefully we can get back to winning on Saturday at Plainmoor.

Just as long as we are top at the end of April, I will be pleased......
We do not want to be in the playoffs, they are a total lottery.

As soon as Fulston went off, the writing was on the wall. Carson is no LB. His positional awareness needs work. Cannot believe Moxey couldn't have done a better job for the last 30 mins. Hasani looked poor and the boo boys will be after Hamon for their equaliser. A lack of strength in depth is obvious; CF, LB and maybe another defender needed, to make us real title contenders.

You must be joking , this is not a team that's going to win the league. Very poor second half , how does Mussa get 90 minutes - useless - luxury player
Carson dreadful defending - stop the bloody cross !!

Did anyone really think we’re good enough to win the league..ive just not seen it this season. Way too many points dropped away from home.

Hopefully get 2nd or 3rd for easier time in play offs

We started off really well and after some comical Sunday pub defending by Davies, their player manager, we strolled into a one goal lead. We get the second it’s our game.
Game changed when Cooke came off. Moose and Young playing up top should have, but didn’t work. Looked like 5 at the back with a thin looking three in midfield. Both goals came from our left. Carson had no cover, Lirak didn’t know where to be it seemed and didn’t give him much cover. Deano came on and should have gone to left back with Carson in front of him to stop their tricky right sided players. We needed a Paul Wotton type on the pitch. We looked very disorganised with nobody talking. Just trying to listen to the ranting from the bench which was coming at them every 2 seconds. Very disappointing after a good start.

I have it on good authority a forward is coming home to Devon from a league 2 side.
Should be in team for Saturday.

Not a minute too soon. Poor old Cooke is running himself in to the ground.

Few people referencing Matt Jay from Colchester yes

Attacking midfielder, however he played up top for Exeter during their promotion season and notched 20 (give or take). Would be happy with this. Harry Kite is another potential. Neither have played much football for over a year though.

Champions would have found a way to win at least one of the last two games. I thought the late Moxey effort might have showed that but our non champions level showed itself in the last seconds. We’re not there yet, I think we are 2 or 3 players short for that but the team is evolving and certainly better than the one that started the season. Others are improving too though.
