Argyle down, with lowest points total seen in L2. Everyone else down in the cack with us are managing to put results/team morale together. We are apparently clueless. What does Deehan do?? SFA apparently, that could save us some money, but he'll have a nice contract and pay-of clause.

| I think we'll be back in the mire at the weekend. Although thankfully we're away (to Rov'rum) as 'Carl the inept' doesn't do attacking tactics at Home Park. I thought we may pull away fromthe drop zone (after the Accrington result), but it increasingly looks like we'll be struggling to stay up, up until the last game, due to our woeful home form. |

| Shitty are sinking faster than a fat lass on a pedalo.
Taken from the early morning edition of The Exeter Sun:
The big League 1 club and their massive away following of 347 last night must have made a sorry sight trooping out of the big smoke in their flares and platform shoes. Many already devastated at the news that Alvin Stardust has cancelled his Thursday night gig at the Westpoint due to an embarrassing glove induced skin disorder called "My Coo Ca Choo Syndrome", which had been thought to be a factor in the death of Michael Jackson, hence his non-appearance ever at the Westpoint, this further blow could lead to an upsurge in depression related illnesses in the Exeter area.
The cities largest employer, Macdonalds, has already received 2 calls from members of staff present at the Brentford game last night, informing them that they are not fit for work today. Macdonalds have a contingency plan in place, and have despatched a man with a van to Longleat to collect 4 monkeys to take over supervisory roles, whilst the current management team will concentrate on serving.
A spokesman for Burger King told the Exeter Sun "We don't expect anyone calling in sick. None of our staff are stupid enough to support that bag of shite"
The 2-0 defeat at Brentford saw Shitty plunge into the relegation places, and the defeat was confounded by the sending off of captain David Noble for looking stupid and ugly in a public place, an offence that carries a punishment of 50 lashes. Shitty manager Paul Pissdale said in his post match interview " Bibble bibble bibble blub" before shitting into a bucket and eating it in front of the team to boost morale.
Shitty are now away to MK Dons on Saturday, and the team have been informed that this is actually Milton Keynes and not Macdonalds as was advertised in the Shitty matchday programme last week. The club were worried that the 8 people who bought a programme might try turning up at Marsh Barton on Saturday expecting to see a game of football being played in the kitchen, AND expecting staff discount for their milkshakes.
The Exeter Sun also sought the views of Shitty superfan Uri Geller, who told them to "feck Off do I really support them" before claiming he was responsible for the sinking of the Costa Concordia recently, just for a laugh, and asking if anyone wanted a signed photo of him and the deceased other Shitty superfan Michael Jackson for £7.
In an attempt to raise morale in the small backwater town, Exeter Shitty Council have announced that 70's rockers Sweet have been booked to open a new video store in Cowick Street. The Council spokesman said "Videos are a new invention that play films and stuff in a machine that you strap to your telly".
The new store opens on Saturday and the bands manager Jamie Cureton said "As dear old Brian Connolly left us in 1997, we have enlisted none other than Susan Boyle to replace him". As news takes a while to reach Exeter, Cureton explained that they will not be making the news of Brian's death public, as Subo is so similar looking anyway.
The video store grand opening takes place at 10.00 am, with 50 balloons rumoured to have been ordered. And the name of the new video store? You got it, Exeter Video Hire.
Sweet will be performing a medley of hits including Hell Raiser, Ballroom Blitz and Teenage Rampage, as well as performing I dreamed a dream from Subo's back catalogue.
If this doesn't raise spirits in the town, further gigs by Slade and T-Rex are being lined up for a family festival this summer, headlined by none other than the world famous Gary Glitter, who now has a gap in his world tour schedule following the cancellation of dates in South East Asia. Tickets for this festival go on sale on March 17th, but Gary has kindly offered to donate 10 family tickets to the first lucky children to "like" his Facebook page.
For anyone in the Exeter area still suffering from depression following the demise of the Shitty team, help can be obtained from the MIND helpline 0300 123 3393, and the local office is situated at 42 Cowick St. A spokesman for MIND Exeter said "There is a website too, but to be honest none of the feckin numpties around here even know what the Internet is so I won't confuse matters" The local office can be contacted on 01392 433112, and is open between 04.00-04.30 am every second Tuesday of the month, except at Christmas, Easter, January, February, March, June, July and September due to ECT treatment being carried out on these days.

| No. It was at a small festival in Belgium about 40 years ago. They were booed off stage after two or three numbers - full cans & bottles being thrown at them, spat at. Not at all mundane. I think Tisdale was on drums. |

A couple of moderately humorous lines in a bit of a diatribe imho, attempts to pile poo on us by suggesting the thriving City of Exeter is in some way more chavvy and backward than the urban decay champions of Europe are a bit rich tbh, especially as last night still leaves you a full league below us. Unfortunately the winds of change are far too evident to be ignored, the simple fact that you can win away from home is enough to stir the seeds of envy. Four of the last six years have been great though, the last three super enhanced by the goings on down the A38, in the world of a City supporter of getting on for 50 years those kind of feelings will not just disappear overnight just because we are having a bad 'un, plus you are still just a point off the bottom of the whole football league, that alone is enough to bring the trace of a smile to the lips. |

| Well I guess you have had a year or so now to gloat at our demise and your meteoric rise up the Leagues, but now your bubble has burst because you are nailed on for relegation this season, whereas Argyle under administration and with the poorest squad ever seen at Home Park, and possibly one of the poorest manager's, have a fighting chance of survival now. Even in a division above us your crowds are half of ours, and for a relatively close away game like Brentford you muster around 350? Argyle a whole League below you travel on the same night to roughly the same destination and the official away attendance was 701 but with the away end allocation sold out, you can be sure that there were lots more in the home end. After year after year of being the poor relation in the pecking order you did extremely well to rise out of the BSP and then onto League One, but that is as far as you will ever go and your little fairytale is now over. So after a period of sustained piss-taking, I'm glad that you handle banter back in the way you have, "It's not funny". Well it wouldn't be funny when the subject is yourselves would it? I would brace yourselves for a whole lot more guys after the amount you have dished out. Remember it's just a game though and that you are on Argyle Talk Democratic, because your own forum Exeweb is now in the clutches of Porkus |

Let them enjoy their day in the sun. They are harmless, mostly articulate and humerous. It can't be easy supporting a tiny club that has never even looked like climbing out of the lower leagues. |

Nah, it just wasn't funny and apparently you boys can't count either. For all the brave face you put on things you can't kid a kidder, you are slightly less crap than you were, big it up all you like but the best you can hope for is the worst we can get. |

| I read in the WMN earlier (at a customer's) that Tisdale isn't happy with Noble ban not being overturned. Looks like a certain defeat on Saturday (away to MK Dons) and with City playing a game more than the 4 or 5 teams above them, looks like they could plunge further into the mire. Gloomy Saturday for both Argyle and Exeter I think. |

You weren't wrong and a good win for Dagenham Tuesday could make it even better. If it makes you feel any better we were truly dire today and I would estimate that our chances of avoiding the drop would be 20% at best. |

There you go being over generous again, take those rose tints off, and sniff, bring in a good lung full of air via the nostrils, now smell it, yep it's coffee!!! Let's say 50 points is what's needed to stay up, could be more this season with those around & even below us starting to pick up points, where as we are not!! so 34 - 50 = 16 points needed, 5 wins and a draw from the last 10 games, something we have fallen well short of, in any given 10 consecutive game sequence, all season. My prediction somewhere on these boards, of the next 4 games, was of 1 point gained for a draw v Stevenage, the 4th game is v Preston, I then went on to say the following 2 fixtures (H to Wycombe A to Tranmere) after that, would see whether we went down with a wimper or with a fight!! Results for those around us since then however, brings it down to this simple equation - It's all down now to whether we finish, 21st, 22nd, 23rd or 24th. I would therefore say our chances of survival are 6.7356894 % and falling |

| To an extent you are spot on Sandy, I just cling to the possibility that we get a bit of a run going, score well out of them six pointers and keep our home record intact then fifth bottom is a realistic hope.
I hope. |

I hope. You carry on, Red Star summed our season up, we were relegated this season, the moment we lost to Torquay in the pre season friendly. Any one with any common could see how far off a league 1 side, we were then. Nothing has changed that opinion for me this season, I've been resigned since November to the fact we are going back to our natural level in May... straight back up? Don't be stupid, we'll be in the bottom half, if this lot survive this season, they'll even finish above us, that's how far we've come since May 2011, we may even flirt with a return to that blue square thing... If our club really wanted to push on & go places, we would have moved heaven & earth to keep Hamer, Taylor, & Cureton in the summer, then added a bit more quality to the midfield, and front line... I'm now looking forward to our next promotion push in 15-20 years time, unless of course we go down again, then it may come a little sooner |
