Steenson signs new deal at Chiefs

Gareth Steenson has spoken of his delight after putting pen to paper on a new two-year deal with the Exeter Chiefs.

The club’s record points-scorer is to extend his stay at Sandy Park until at least the end of 2019/20 season and is the first indication from Director of Rugby Rob Baxter that he is keen to keep hold of a number of his frontline stars moving forward.

Signed by the Chiefs back in the summer of 2010 from the Cornish Pirates, the 33-year-old fly-half has played an integral part in the recent rise of Exeter out of the Championship and into one of the leading rugby...

City 1 Coventry City 0

Exeter City recorded a hard-earned three points against Coventry City with a 1-0 win at St James Park.

Ryan Harley's early strike was enough to win it for the home side who defended well to keep out a dangerous Coventry attack.

Match report sponosred by Speedy Freight

Paul Tisdale made two changes to the side that were beaten in the FA Cup by West Bromwich Albion last weekend, as Lee Holmes and Lloyd James came into the City starting XI.

It was the perfect start for the Grecians when they went ahead in the eighth minute with their first attempt at goal....

Exeter Chiefs 41 Montpellier 10

If there are ever thoughts of another tunnel being dug beneath the English Channel, then the Exeter Chiefs pack could well put in a tender for the role.

Rob Baxter's juggernaut set of forwards have become past masters in the art of digging deep to extract rich rewards.

Against visiting Montpellier, the English champions were ruthless in their execution of duty, delivering a six-try victory that kept alive their hopes of qualification in this season's European Champions Cup.

Having led just 7-0 at the break thanks to a converted try from Dave Ewers, Devon's finest...

Chiefs side to face Montpellier

Rob Baxter insists his side will “fight for everything” ahead of tomorrow’s crunch European Champions Cup encounter with Montpellier at Sandy Park (3:15pm). In what is effectively a ‘do-or-die’ encounter for both sides in a hugely competitive Pool 3, the English champions know victory is imperative if they are to stand any chance of advancing into the latter stages of the competition. Back-to-back defeats against runaway pool leaders Leinster have seen the Chiefs slip to third in the standings, four points adrift of their French rivals, who themselves have put themselves back in the...

Football: It’s a family affair!

By Lee Alexander, Coventry & Exeter supporter.

I fell in love with football at an early age; standing on a wooden stool, supported by my Dad, watching Coventry City at home in the “covered end” at Highfield Road, or away on the asphalt banks of Fellows Park, Walsall.

It was a family thing; not just my family but being part of the football club “family”.

I was lucky enough to be at Wembley in 1987, to witness “one of the best FA Cup Finals ever” (quote: John Motson); I was with my Dad and both of my brothers and a “family” of friends. So, where’s this leading to...

Exeter City sign Kane Wilson on loan

West Bromwich Albion defender Kane Wilson says he is looking forward to ‘kicking-on’ and ‘progressing further’ having agreed a loan deal with Exeter City until the end of the season, subject to Football League approval.

Kane, 17, made eight appearances for the Grecians in the first half of the season having joined the club on transfer deadline day in August.

However, following his performance against Barnet on December 30 – where he scored his first goal in senior football – the highly-rated full-back returned to his parent club following the end of his initial loan deal...

Tisdale eyes Edwards return

Exeter manager Paul Tisdale wants Kyle Edwards to follow the lead of West Brom team-mate Kane Wilson and extend his loan spell with the Grecians.

Wilson was given the green light from the Baggies to remain in the South West for the remainder of the campaign after his initial five-month period had elapsed.

The 17-year-old made eight appearances in his first spell while 19-year-old Edwards has enjoyed ten outings in League Two and 14 in total, scoring one goal to date.

Having come up through the West Brom academy, Edwards was an unused substitute in a League Cup match...

Grand National History

The Grand National is one of the most famous steeplechases in the world and has come a long was since that first race back in 1839. The spectators that enjoyed that first race probably would not believe that it would still be enjoyed almost 180 years into the future. That first race was along a four mile course that included jumps over fences, walls and brooks. Part of the course also required horse to race over a field that had just been ploughed. The course has not altered that much over the years as there are still jumps and difficult terrain to negotiate.

The first official...
