Nugent is running his socks off but mostly chasing loose balls. Seems wrong to me. Still very winnable but we need to get behind their defence and test the keeper. The game started brightly but ended up as a scrappy affair after their equaliser.

Too many of them after over 50 years!
The good news is Newport and Carlisle lost and Bolton and FGR are losing. A point is better than none but I think Lloyd will come on and facilitate a 2-1 win. Need to keep the ball on the ground and get away from head tennis and long balls.

The commentary is very poor again, Higgy moaning his way through the game as per. The quality is low, not helped by a very poor pitch, but I think we have worked hard and done OK.

Though I agree with Dave Higgins re Exeter looking more dangerous and measured in attack, whereas Nugent is very isolated and we've played the ball too much in the air. The enforced substitution to Ray probably means that Keith will have to delay any changes in personnel, but scope for a tactical adjustment at h/t.

We had the best chance in the first half other than the goals.

We are looking tired and probably need to freshen things.

Lloyd and Lewis set to come on. My guess is for Nugent and possibly OConnor

Surprised Morris has gone off as thought he’d done ok. Nugent apart from the penalty has been a passenger

He's had no service the ball is constantly launched forward, we are playing poorly again.

Well Keith was 100% pleased with a point at Grimsby so he might be with a game such as this .....

yes to be fair you are right. We’re not exactly fizzing cross after cross into the box....

Generally one way traffic so far this half. Hope I’m wrong but an away goal looks inevitable sooner or later.

Pass the ball around instead launching it upto Lewis who if he wins it flicks it on to nobody tactics are awful
