I know why I look for this teams results its because I saw them a couple of times a year, every year during the Easter holidays from school when my parents used to take us away for Easter to visit my mums side of the family which is enormous, my mother comes from a family of 9 whom most of them were farmers and their children have had children etc and so my family have seemingly populated half of the west Country with the last count nearing 150 relations!! Anyway for my sins I am a closet Exeter City fan, I have not been to watch them play since I was dragged along to those games all those years ago by my cousins and it has to be said that Exeter FC was the very first team I watched in a live game, and yes it was at least a few years before my father took me to see my first game in 1968 against Stoke City. I have a lot of friends in and around Exeter and my elder brother moved to Devon when he was 16 and has lived there ever since also my mother and father did likewise after they had returned from Europe. On the many times I have visited my family since those early days I have met many of my brother friends and shared a few scrumpy's etc and have enjoyed all of the banter of me being an Arsenal fan and them going to watch Exeter on their tractors, I have even mentioned the amount of times I have been to Wembley to see Arsenal play as well which I think is about mid 30's and reminding them that they will go to Wembley but only if they own a greyhound (one for the older Gooners) but it is all good humoured.
