Because we so often seem to be easy pickings for lower league teams! Probably not in reality, but that’s how it feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a relatively close game for them, they get to have a go at a Champions side and we have a good chance of progression. Just seems a good match.

Midlands Robin Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 With lower league clubs much more likely to be feeling the pinch due to the Covid restrictions if you are going to be drawn away, a quick hop up and down the M5 would be good for Exeter. Far easier than a 4 hour trip let's say, from Bristol to Ipswich and back. It's a good, competitive opening fixture for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Isn't it 5th September or has that now changed? We played Exeter in 2000. 4-0 and 1-1 wasn't it, JPT. Under the '3 wise men' Fawthrop etc. Well I say JPT, LDV Vans back then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
