I made it to Exeter from Cornwall thanks partly due to a daughter and granddaughter wanting to shop! This was my first live league match since covid and it was well worth it. Only two things to add to Paul’s account. First, while I thought City were good after the first 10 minutes, I thought Exeter were very poor indeed – a view supported by the Exeter fans surrounding me who said that they had been much better against Lincoln in midweek. So how much of our dominance was down to their inability to compete? I honestly don’t know but it certainly made for a fairly easy time of it in the second half. Secondly I can add to the doubt about our final goal result in from an offside. I was seated in the stand on the other side of the field almost immediately opposite where Chris Willock received the ball in the lead up. While he looked offside to the fans around me and actually myself too what was definite was that the assistant referee below us was yards behind the play for some reason. The shouts of the Exeter fans around me were drowned out by the noise of our brilliant fans behind the goal. I didn’t have a level view of whether Robison was offside. The general view of the Exeter fans was that we were a different class so upwards and onwards with two home games next.
