  • I'd be surprised if it wasn't the same formation as Saturday with Blooms and Thompson CDM, Freeman RWB and Mehmeti and Kaikai replacing McLeary and Horgan.

  • 3-4-3 I think.

  • We are obviously not taking this seriously then. Nice to see Tommo having a runout though.

  • For those that are interested the away terrace is the same one that used to be at the North End of Barnet’s Hive ground. When they built their new all-seat away end they sold the terrace to Exeter City.

    What makes you say that?

  • 9 of the starting 11 have championship experience @Blue_since_1990. I

  • Mehmeti and KaiKai sounds exciting already

  • Commentary is on BBC 3 counties 98 FM

  • JJ just hit the post from a corner

  • Anyone there able to confirm the formation? Burley as central CB with Freeman wingback or something else?

  • Poor Peterborough getting a footballing lesson from the mighty... checks notes... Plymouth in the cup. Wonder if they've considered Sunday League. Might suit them better.

  • We expect a full breakdown of the ‘match day experience’ @DevC

    (Not that you can go far wrong in Exeter…)

  • Sounds like Bloomfield got injured. Anyone know how serious?

    Not sure, but no prizes for guessing which body part he injured.

  • Yes Burley plating in the middle of the back three and Freeman playing right wing-back.

    Both doing pretty well so far.

  • Any ideas why Mccarthy and Thompson have come off too?

    I am showing McCarthy on for Obita and Horgan on for Thompson. Looks like attacking changes. Cue Horgan scoring in the next ten?

    Interesting with Burley.
    We've brought in the ex Chelsea guy, and have 4 others competing for centre back, with the Morecambe guy rumoured to be on his way in too.

    Wakely (the ex-Chelsea guy) has a knock.

  • Vokes on for JJ and McCarthy off injured already so we're down to 10.

  • Hard to keep track of who’s playing where! The back three is Grimmer, Burley and?

  • Freeman playing left sided central defender!!!

  • Making 4 subs by 60 mins not v Gaz - were they all forced?

  • Bloomfield, JJ and McCarthy all went off injured, I think Obita and Thompson were deliberately just given 45 mins but I’m only guessing.

  • @kiscokid Blooms, JJ and McCarthy all injured apparently.

  • JJ and McCarthy are pretty disastrous if serious injuries. Might necessitate a switch back to a 4-3-3 with Grimmer, Stewart, Obita and......? Burley?

  • Makes sense we wouldn’t take any chances with JJ when we had a sub in the bank. Taking off McCarthy and going down to 10 suggests it’s a bad one.

  • Was Blooms a concussion sub, or are we allowed four in the League Cup?

  • Concussion sub.
