Has anyone worked up some version of “Oliver’s Army” to sing from the stands? Seems like it could be a good one...

How much would Exeter's annual budget be? Have we propped them up for another year while also paying for half of Brentford's new stadium? I hope they remember this altruism if we draw either of them in the cups.


Exeter City FC posted a loss of more than £700,000 for the year ending June 30, 2019, the club’s annual accounts have revealed.

Turnover for the period was £4,079,870, down 2.5 per cent on the prior year, which the club have put down to the involvement that the Grecians had in the play-offs the previous season.

So £4.2m will be very welcome to them.

Cheers. Incredible then, exceeds a year of revenue.

Has he done the "delighted to be joining a massive club and I've always respected the gaffer and I want to show the fans what I'm capable of" interview yet?

Yes, pretty much word for word!

Has any player, for any club, ever given an interview on signing similar to the Mourinho arrival at Chelsea? As in "I'm special, I'll work hard, but you're lucky to have me"?

I'd love to see something like that!


The current Albion manager (whose name currently escapes me) did something similar when he was appointed. I'm obviously paraphrasing, but I remember something along of "yes, I'm lucky to be coming to such a great club. In truth, they're also lucky to have me."

That must be a record even for here. Two lines that cover world football, European football, songs, the FA Cup, Brexit and Covid-19.

If he's toking on a shirt I can't imagine he'll be feeling marvelous.
