Colaton through to semis as Lympets' Cup comes to an end

LYMPSTONE 0-2 COLATON RALEIGH: Two goals at key moments in Lympstone gave the East Devon visitors Colaton Raleigh safe passage from the quarter-finals.

In a cup run that included victories over Upottery and Chulmleigh, this was Lympstone's first challenge against higher tier opposition.

These two sides may well meet again next season with the Lympets aiming for promotion from Division Three of the Devon and Exeter League. The Division Two visitors, who netted twelve goals in the 2nd and 3rd rounds of this year's cup, made the short journey this Sunday afternoon from the...

In-form City go for a Burton away from home

Exeter City’s fantastic undefeated away record came to a disappointing end by a 4-2 scoreline at the hands of in-form Burton Albion at the Pirelli Stadium.

On a freezing afternoon in the Midlands, the travelling Grecians had had very little to cheer in the first period. City trailed 3-0 at the interval, with Michael Symes, Marcus Holness and Jacques Maghoma all finding the net.

The game looked effectively over on 60 minutes when Brewers hit a fourth through Lee Bell, smashing from outside the box.

Guillem Bauza (pictured) and Scot Bennett reduced the...

Chiefs return to winning ways at Sandy Park

Exeter Chiefs returned to winning ways in the Aviva Premiership by turning in a stellar five-star display against visiting London Welsh at Sandy Park.

Hurting following a five-game winless streak, Rob Baxter’s side responded in the best possible fashion as they posted their biggest-ever total in the top flight against the Exiles.

Baxter hopes return to home ground will provide perfect pick-me-up

Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter hopes a return to home surroundings will provide the perfect pick-me-up to get his ailing side back on track in the Aviva Premiership.

With just one league defeat at Sandy Park this season - that came against Northampton Saints back in early January - the Chiefs welcome Premiership newcomers to London Welsh to Devon tomorrow (3pm).

Like the Chiefs, the visitors have also been experiencing some tough times of late and last weekend's narrow home defeat to Sale Sharks has pulled Lyn Jones' team into the division's relegation fight.

Saracens condemn Chiefs to more away-day misery

When the ‘Fat Lady’ or should that be ‘Fat Bloke’ sang with a minute to go, that – I suppose – summed up the ‘Saracens Show’ (Saracens 31 : Chiefs 11).

Friend hat-trick helps Dawlish cruise to victory

DAWLISH UNITED 4-1 CHAGFORD

Three goals from Ben Friend helped Dawlish United cruise to victory in the Devon & Exeter League 2nd Division, keeping first place in close sight.

In a first half in which the hosts forced no less than ten corners, it came as no surprise when Kristain Rabbage capitalised to net his side in front after 22 minutes, shortly after himself and Isaac Reed had shots saved.

As more pressure mounted on the visitors in the seaside sun, Dawlish doubled their lead when Friend headed in from a free-kick in the 39th minute - his first of the...
