Report: Northampton 1 Exeter City 2

John O’Flynn scored a stoppage-time winner for the Grecians as they triumphed 2-1 at Sixfields against Northampton Town.

The home side had started on the front-foot, with Leicester loanee Jacob Blyth slotting in after just six minutes.

It could have been two when his strike-partner Clive Platt was unlucky to hit the bar with a thunderous strike.

But Scot Bennett drew level before the break as he got on the end of a corner – and City sub John O’Flynn was on hand in the three added minutes to head home a cross and send the...

Today (Friday 13 September 2013) marks the 10th anniversary, to the day, of the Supporters' Trust purchasing the majority shareholding of Exeter City FC .

Ten years ago today Dr David Treharne and Martin Ellicott, on behalf of the relatively newly formed Supporters' Trust stepped out of Ivor Doble’s jewellery shop pinching themselves that they had just bought their football club!

The Club had been in turmoil for months since the arrest of fraudulent John Russell and Mike Lewis. Members of the Supporters' Trust had been trying to keep the Club in existence, and all summer...

Devon business helps Olympic Legacy live on

Just over one year on from the Olympics, Aspects Pools, a local swimming pool provider, is doing their bit to carry on the Olympic legacy. The Devon-based outfit has just completed an innovative competition for the British Water Polo Community.

The competition challenged water polo teams to reach out to their local communities, and raise awareness of the sport. Teams had to encourage local people to nominate them to win a £1500 contribution – paid in full by Aspect Pools – to their British National League entry fees: there were over 1500 entries, and British Water polo League...

Chiefs need to get back on track says Whitten

Irishman Ian Whitten insists Exeter Chiefs can ill afford another slow start when they play host to London Wasps in their first Aviva Premiership home game of the season on Saturday (3pm). With hopes high in the Devon camp ahead of their opening day trip to Northampton, the Chiefs were swept aside by the Saints during a powerful first half display that saw Jim Mallinder's men race into a 31-6 half time lead. Although the visitors improved significantly during the second half, eventually losing the game 38-11, the damage had already been done and Whitten is adamant there can be no repeat...

Exeter City under 18's fight back against Man City

Exeter City’s under-18 side came from two goals down to earn an excellent 2-2 draw against their counterparts from Man City.

548 fans were in St James Park to witness a great fightback and a thoroughly entertaining spectacle, which will have alerted many to the talent in the City Academy.

The visitors were a goal up at the interval as Connor Riley-Lowe was unlucky to deflect a corner into his own net. Dom McHale doubled the lead in the second half with a neat finish from a tight angle.

But two goals within a minute from Charlie Madden and Joe Charles put the...

England take point in Ukraine to leave them top of qualifying group

Ukraine 0

England 0

FIFA World Cup 2014 Qualifier, Tuesday 10 September 2013, Olympic Stadium, Kiev

England's World Cup destiny remains in their own hands after a somewhat drab goaless affair in Kiev.

With England one point clear at the top of group H, victory in their remaining home games against Montenegro and Poland on 11 and 15 October respectively, would see them qualify for Brazil 2014 as group winners.

With few chances for either side, a 0-0 scoreline seemed a fair outcome. England offered little in the way of attacking flair - an early...
