Mark I think it’s a big comment on how thin the squad is that we only had those 2 that were viable to free the money.

We really probably only need 2 points to stay up (though not guaranteed even then). We seem very unlikely to score, so probably the best approach to get those points is to go ultra defensive and play for 0-0 in every game, of course the flaw in that plan is that we have so many defenders missing as well, but it’s the best we can do. All in all we have gone from thinking we were nearly safe in mid table to real relegation worries in the course of a fortnight or so. Overall this is just down to a combination of us being unlucky with injuries and having had a thin squad in the first place, due to our financial constraints

Reeves is fit so he has to play, experience is key at this stage and he won’t win with a bunch of kids

Thought the team gave up the ghost after Luton's first goal yesterday. Poor show really.

Are we allowed to get any emergency loans in given the number of injuries we have? I think if Browne was fit, we’d be fine - I still fancy us to win at either Burton or Wigan…

Any reason the club didn't have resale for yesterday's game? We ended up with one spare ticket and one empty seat.

Lurker - just reading back - apologies for not answering yesterday. I get that, the bleak reality is what you’re saying is that the opportunity cost of Tilley is Hardbottle. It just reaffirms the sorry state of play and finances are in as I guess that neither are that expensive in the scheme of things in league 1

Sandy - I was astonished we didn't make one or two subs at half time and was astonished at the unprofessionalism of Bugiel and our bench in not getting him off with theother two as he was obviously injured 5 mins before the subs were made.

“Hopefully, there's a little bit of good news in that regard with a few of the lads that have been out that perhaps might be available to us and assess the lads from today - Joe, Pat and Omar, whether they can play any part. But it’s unlikely, when you've come off on a Monday through injury, to be able to go again on Saturday. That's a quick turnaround. So, I don't know. I don't know the answer to that.”

Time to start the journey back to Cornwall…

I wonder if we've got any decent under 12 CBs at the club...

Bit unfortunate that the three subs "windows" don't account for genuine injuries like ours yesterday, but I guess if this sort of thing was introduced there would be scope for abusing it.

Just read JJ's interview on the OS. All sounds a bit bleak!

Anyone seen the Elephant man on the far left of the OTD game at Yeovil?

I could see Oxford if they drop to League 1 putting JJ on their list of replacements for Matt Bloomfield, not so sure if Pompey would do the same though

OI - Tony has a soft spot for us as a club, and been to many games at KM and Plough Lane. Was even at one of the Play Off Finals too doing his media bit, but with a large bias in our direction.

Ardley is available ;)

Genuinely not sure who we’d have available to us.

dont see what has changed in Nolan’s life or ours in the last 7 years that he’d suddenly want the job.

Kevin Nolan available

6 games ago we were sitting pretty, then 1 point and 4 of the 6 games without a goal, 8 players injured., going to be tough to get anymore points.. Exeter might get a draw at Plymouth, (local derby's anything can happen) point at Burton and will probably beat Bradford home last game as Bradford will have confirmed a play off place and will be resting players.

Steve Mac how was your jersey game?

Nutter but admirable [Link]

“Interesting” thing about our squad. In league one you can have a maximum of 22 outfield players aged 21 and over. We’ve only had 17. And one of those is recovering from a heart attack. At the start of yesterday’s game (and for a while now), we could just fill a first team starting 11 from the 21s and over. By the end, even if we played both keepers (one outfield), we can’t field a first team from 21&+ players.

Plus, in theory, Exeter only need four points to overtake us due to the six-goal swing in GD yesterday. Thank Luton for having mercy on us and turning the last 10 minutes into a training exercise.
