Bloody Luton. I saw both league matches that year, which we lost 5-2 at home and 7-4 at their plastic-pitched hell hole (just days before the semi-final as I recall). In both games we were flattered by the (utterly horrific) scorelines - at their place Luton could have had 15. Away fans were banned,...

Quite a few players will still be with the club, although they will have been told to start looking for new employers if they can.

I'd imagine Duffy, Burgess and Gilly will be in this list, with us looking for a fee of sorts for the first two.

I'm pleasantly surpised that little 3-4 minute features that pop up once a month News 24, BBC south today, and the BBC website can be described as &quotlimelight&quot. I don't think News 24 has ever warranted such a prestigious accolade.

Sadly not for a number of reasons. 1) The bosses weren't ever that sold on the idea. Doing it again? No chance, unless the club pays me! 2) We're not sure about how Setanta's TV deal will work, but it's unlikely there will be the grey areas that allowed us to film at matches this year. 3) It didn't ...

Re:

&quotbut the end product has more often than not been disappointing.&quot Whaoh! I think that's really harsh. 12 goals in 26 starts compares with any striker we've had over the last 10 seasons. In terms of assists, I bet he's leading the club by a distance too. Yep, he'll miss chances, but w...

Yeah great news about Yemi, not least because he's one of only two or three players who we could ask any sort of fee for. I think he's a real talent, and he's proved he's willing to learn. Remember at the start of last season, Smith tried to unload him, now he's our top player (this says a bit about...

I am led to believe our salary scale starts at £15k, going up to the top earner on £52k per year.

I have that on good authority.

I was cheering on Kiddie. Stevenage will be one of our main rivals next season, this win will have boosted their confidence massively and their bank balance by 250k according to Sky. Stevenage were also quite simply the rudest and most unpleasant club we visited all season too. I haven't a bad word ...

Smith had a chance to lead us away from the danger at the bottom of the table last season. He didn't. Smith had the chance to keep us up on the last day. He didn't. Smith has had his chance to get us back in the league. He didn't. It's with regret that I say the greatest manager in the history of ou...

If Exeter win 2-1, don't they go through on away goals? Unless: UE: referee decides he wants drama of penalties and overlooks away goals rule. In fury, Exeter miss all five penalties. Nick Merry pushes aside Quinn to fire home winning spot kick with gammy knee. Cartlidge flies out, blinding Paul Tis...

I don't think I was this nervous before the Orient match.

So much depends on this and then next Sunday.

Gulp.

Great performace but I'm still as nervous as it's possible to be. I've been plagued by thoughts of three previous two-legged matches involving us: Fulham (won 1-0 away, lost 5-3 at home) Luton (won 3-2 away, lost 3-1 at home) Wolves (won 1-0 away, lost 3-1 at home) The job is so not done yet. I'm te...
