Exeter City earn a creditable draw

Report: Newport 1 Exeter City 1

Exeter City earned a creditable draw from their trip to South Wales as their trip to Newport County AFC ended 1-1.

City had gone ahead shortly after the interval when Exiles defender Harry Worley turned Tom Nichols’ cross into his own net, but Lee Minshull forced the ball over the line from a corner just a minute later.

And ultimately a toughly-contested battle ended honours-even as all other chances went begging before the referee sounded the final whistle.

Manager Paul Tisdale made three City changes for the visit to Rodney...

Chiefs name side to face Saints in LV= Cup Final

Home turf, capacity crowd and the hopes of a rugby-mad region right behind them - it seems Exeter Chiefs have all the ingredients to serve up a real treat in Sunday's LV= Cup final at Sandy Park (1pm).

Standing in the way of silverware for Rob Baxter and his team, however, are Premiership rivals Northampton Saints, themselves no strangers to the big occasion and indeed former winners of the competition in 2010.

Sat at the summit of English rugby's top division, the Saints have certainly been the team that have set the benchmark this season. Jim Mallinder's men - even...

Mumm sets sights on LV= final

It may not have been pretty - at times it was downright ugly - but last Sunday's LV= Cup victory over Bath Rugby was all that mattered to Exeter Chiefs skipper Dean Mumm come the final whistle.

At the 12th attempt since their promotion into the top flight in 2010, Rob Baxter's side were finally able to overcome their Westcountry rivals in a competitive first-team fixture.

For Aussie international Mumm, the 22-19 win at The Recreation Ground not only ended the so-called 'Bath hoodoo' - but at the same time ensured the Chiefs advanced to this weekend's LV= Cup Final for the...

Another home disappointment for Exeter City

It was another home disappointment for Exeter City as they went down 1-0 at St James Park to fellow strugglers Northampton Town.

Chris Wilder’s side scored the game’s only goal in the second half through a well-taken finish by substitute Ian Morris, the Irishman’s first touch since coming on.

Exeter City manager Paul Tisdale named a completely unchanged starting line-up to face Chris Wilder’s Northampton Town tonight at St James Park.

Both the Grecians’ starting XI and the bench looked the same as they were for Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge, and...

Bicton Arena has announced Eric Winter will be the venue’s new course designer for novice and intermediate cross country courses.

We will also give Matt Lynch, who is the equivalent of a clerk of the course, more responsibility. He is already a bronze level builder but he will be...

Chiefs secure LV= Cup Final place with away victory

Bath 19 Chiefs 22

If at first you don’t succeed – try, try and try again. Well, in the case of the Exeter Chiefs it’s taken 12 attempts, but at last the Bath curse has been finally broken.

Rob Baxter’s side booked themselves a home date with Northampton Saints in next Sunday’s LV= Cup Final with a hard-fought 22-19 win against their Westcountry rivals.

Having come so close on numerous other occasions since 2010, this was finally the day when Devon’s finest rose to the occasion.

Indeed, not since 1978 had the Chiefs tasted success against their nearest and...

Exeter City come from behind to earn a much needed point

Report: Exeter City 2 Dag & Red 2

A goal deep, deep into stoppage time by Eliot Richards earned Exeter City a 2-2 draw at home against Dagenham & Redbridge.

The Grecians had gone ahead in the first half through Tom Nichols, but a fine strike by Luke Norris got the visitors on terms in the second period.

Dagenham went ahead through what appeared to be a soft penalty, as Medy Elito slotted in after Brian Saah was judged to have been fouled, by Richards rescued a point with virtually the last kick of the game.

After impressing in midweek for the under-...
