Looking forward to this one. A new team to watch City away at , our 1st ever league meeting, and a few beers in what's a great drinking town. UTC.

So after leaving the house at 06.40 , I got home at this ungodly hour this morning, and all this for a 0.0 draw. Would I do it again .....of course I would !

@OfficialECFC
So it's our last away game of the season , and a promotion party at Northampton is very much the order of the day . This is my 16th away match this season , a record for me , hopefully retirement will see me get a full house of 23.

So it's our last Tuesday night away game of the season. Port Vale away is one of my favourites, and if its good as the trips to Barrow , Crawley , Colchester and Mansfield, it will be 🍺 fuelled fun.

After yesterday's dramatic and emotional events, spare a thought for
@Jacksparkes22
. He's been with us for 14 years , but hardly got a mention post game , due to Jay's hat trick. I'm sure all fellow Grecians wish him and his family the very best for the future.

Would it be possible to reboot your SuperComputer , or do you still think that my team will only amass 1 point in our last 17 games ?

@OfficialECFC
It's going to be a long old trek today. Colchester is not the easiest place to get home from . Looking to extend our 15 game unbeaten league run.

We often get accused of being tinpot for being a well run , Trust based club , but sometimes you just have to ask yourself " would you want it any other way " ?

After South Yorkshire on Saturday , its South East London tonight. Definitely expecting a better choice of Ale than Barnsley , but the day was still a cracker. I love London , I love the Valley , I love beer , what could possibly go wrong. UTC.⚽️

@SkySportsNews
You forgot the shirt tug in the first 10 seconds , on Stirling I believe , which was not given as a yellow. That set the standard for a piss poor night for all 3 officials.
A great catch with
@GabSutton
at the oldest pub in Birmingham , the Old Crown in Digbeth. If you don't follow his content, I can personally recommend it. His knowledge of the EFL is second to none.
An early start and it's -1. But it's an evening game , so an early is a must. Morecambe is normally a happy hunting ground for us , so hopefully
@garycaldwell05
will be the happier Scot tonight.

Feeling pretty emotional right now. This is my last night in this house , my childhood home , the home I returned to after my marriage break up. I'm sure things will turn out well , but its been a stressful few months since Mum passed away.
I'm reading reports , probably for the first time in about 15 years , that we're the dirtiest team in the league. Just over 3 weeks ago this tasty challenge occurred at our place. If fans are going to call stuff out , at least be consistent, or have a better memory

As its Father's Day , here's one of Dad and me putting the new floodlights up at SJP ,back in the 70.s. I did a great apprenticeship with Dad before I joined the railways in 1979.

After walking out of the Mad Stad on NYD , getting soaked and seeing City fall into the bottom 4 , that 3 months later we'd be ,
1. In the top half
2. Sonny would win GOTM
3. Will would be POTM
4. Alex would be our captain....
Incredible times

League Two Manager of the Year, Matt Taylor...
“What I will say is that I am more than happy with where I am at Exeter, my family is settled in Exeter – we have the baby on the way – so sometimes, there are more important things than football as well.”
#ECFC
So we're now on the approach to St Davids , so after leaving the house at 6.15 yesterday morning, this will be another 21 hour day. As I've said before , why do we do it...we do it because its OUR team , and its in our blood. Thanks to everyone for another great day.
I've just had a quick look at the table , and despite struggling for goals since Jevani.s absence , there are only 6 teams who've scored more League 1 goals than us this season.
#ecfc
Just back from a great day in Cornwall, and a great night at
@MouseholeAFC
. It was good to catch up with their Groundsman, Billy Jacka , an old colleague of mine on Wessex Trains. A decent 8.0 win , and it was great to mix with the players post match.
@OfficialECFC
#ecfc
We were the better side for 35 minutes, then under the cosh for the next 10 , so what should you do 2 minutes into stoppage time , you fucking boot it into Row Z . I couldn't care less if he's " one of our own " , that was bloody shocking
#ecfc
@OfficialECFC
Just in after another 16 hours away following my team. Why do we do it ? We do it for days like today , seeing your team play great football , and scoring 4 goals too. Great company , great beer , and many laughs. Thanks as always to
@RussellG61
for the lift back.

And by a strange twist of fate , our last 2 away games are at

This is gonna be a helluva ride. Enjoy you Grecians. UTC.

I've been a Trade Union member for over 43 years , a proud one at that. There have been ups and downs , but in Mick Lynch I think we have finally found a man to lead the movement. I've never been quite so excited for an episode of Question Time !
Really looking forward to the support of 1163 Grecians who are making the journey today to Pride Park in my first game as manager of the club. Incredible commitment by all you!!! 🔴⚪️⚽️

As I'm staying in the 2nd City tonight, it would be rude not to catch up with an old pal.
@GabSutton
knows more about the EFL than most people around , and he's a gent too. Thanks for popping over mate.

Bloody hell, I can't really think what's worse , your ridiculous take , or the last 4 words of your bio, ' and most recently Wrexham '.
Congratulations to Pymy , Hiram , and Sparkys for promotion tonight , and to Joel and Archie for securing a play-off spot ( and winning promotion imo ). This last week has been decent for players , past and present.

@alftufc
Exeter fans are vile. No one wished to see Exeter go bust but when it happened to us and torquay they delighted in it. If they ever find themselves in that situation I'll go out my way to make them feel even worse
Happy Xmas to everyone. I took this one in Cullompton yesterday, not a town known for its beauty, but they've made an effort up there to be fair. Drink responsibly and UTC.
@GabSutton
is that you?
You look like a young Peter Griffin.
Get on the salads lad. You’re only young. Look at the chins on ya. You must be doing some serious scoffing you lad. Pie arse.
It's always a great base for our northern games , so it's an early start for brekkie in Liverpool.
A big match for both sides today.

There were certainly some decent pubs to enjoy in Peterborough yesterday. As against Bolton on Friday we let the opposition have a start ,and couldn't play catch up. Injuries and defensive errors are absolutely killing us at the moment.
If any of our fans have a couple of minutes, maybe have a read of this and see what we're up against. The money at the top end of our league is incredible. Most fans don't expect us to finish in the top half still. Let's just enjoy the ride for now.

After 20 seasons as the face of Exeter City in a variety of roles, today we say goodbye to Receptionist and Shop Assistant, Mike Cooper, who is taking a well-earned retirement.
Thank you, Super Cooper ❤️
