Going to be a really tight game, can see a draw myself but you never know. Just hope we don’t get to complacent after our win today. Monday will be a tough test concidering they have a good home record and thumped Wednesday 5-1 in their last home match.

Hope you're right but I suspect not.
Tough old game on Monday against a side who are very good at home but are pretty awful away - a real contrast. In some ways, while Tisdale is an excellant coach, I think he tends to over-egg the pudding and try to change their playing style too much between home and away. They have a couple of very good midfielders who pull the strings - keep tight on Harley and Sercombe and stop them running and passing and they are a much less effective side.

Saints at home recently: beat Peterborough 4-1, drew with the Albion, lost 2-0 to Brentford, beat Huddersfield 4-1, beat Exeter 4-0, so they are pretty formidable there at the moment.

Exeter are very good at home though, as has been mentioned. I think I read in today’s programme that Logan and Cureton both had 8 goals in 13 and 11 games respectively. Harley (free scoring midfielder) and Matt Taylor (inspirational captain) are now also both back in their starting line up.

What a ridiculous thread. Exeter at home are good and its going to be a very difficult game. I'll take a scrappy 1 nil all day long

They played some good passing football today, lots of movement off the ball and closing down very well. Don't underestimate them.

I'd like to think this is a fishing post, as I don't know anyone who thinks we're just going to turn up and anihilate Exeter.

They have done well this season at home. What I would say is we maybe play a different style of game to many others in this league and maybe some teams will play better than usual against us because of it and some much worse. Also some will change the way they play (maybe parking the bus) and others will stick to their system. Unless you're some expert on Exeter I wouldn't go predicting anything that extreme just based on our situation and half of the story. Still here's hoping you're right :cheers:
