We have the fitness levels the best they've been in a long time.
To me what was lacking was cohesion, they're not playing as a team just yet, but that should come as more games are played.
IMO we were easily a match for Exeter in individual skills & fitness. The difference was they played as a unit, our lads are still learning how to blend.
Keep the faith, patience and time will reap rewards I'm sure. Ever the optimist gives me a better ride than rushing to judge too early.

Sorry vanish but I don’t agree we had the skills that Exeter showed. Our first touch was no where near theirs and they moved off the ball. Football isn’t just about what you do with the ball at your feet and they were leagues ahead at that. Their only fault was to overestimate us in the first 20 minutes, once they got over that they never looked back. The wind was our friend yesterday and without it we would have got a good tonking

I agree they moved off the ball well, and especially passes were made into spaces for them to run on to, but isn't that all part of teamwork?
Knowing who will be where and using overlaps and runners is something that comes with time ...

One things for sure Spanish, we have to stick with a manager for a while, we cant keep changing.

Spanishstag - Why do you always refer to people as 'tactical geniuses' in that condescending tone if they merely offer an opinion?
Surely the whole point of this website is to offer an opinion about football!
Yes, we were beaten by a better team - and there are tactical reasons that can explain why.

It’s the response of someone who can’t muster an opinion. The whole joy of football is analysing the game and offering an opinion. How boring it must be if you just accept each result for what it is. ‘We were the worst team so we lost’, ‘we were the better team so we won’
