Hi... I'll either be in a pub in Exmouth or at home with a slab of beer...

There's some good Cov lads in Exmouth. After the league 2 game at Exeter had a good drink with them down Sidwell Street

I used to know a couple but I've been living abroad for the last 5 years so have lost touch...
The wife would probably prefer I went out...

Travelling up on saturday in the back of a cattle trailer, staying Saturday night in a nice field outside Nuneaton to binge on grass and mushrooms, then down to the game on Sunday for a 3-0 win. Probably be sick on the way back, over 200 miles.

There is no grass in Nuneaton. Only litter and despair

Just drove past a random bloke in a cov tshirt down here in Torquay. I gave him the obligatory Blue Army fist salute of which he replied with one back.
Getting excited

That really pisses me off, it's Sky Blue Army not Blue Army, Blue Army is someone like Leicester.

Dawlish reporting in!

On the way back from the first leg I bumped into a couple more SW fans at the services. A chap from Teignmouth and another guy with his 2 sons went up from the Lizard. Then while walking around Dawlish walking the dog that evening I saw someone else wearing a city shirt. More of us around here than I realised, love it!

I’m just over the border in Dorset. I run Weymouth parkrun in my City shirt every week (not this Saturday as I’ve got something on).

Met 3 other city fans this weekend at parkrun, all are going to Wembley. We’re everywhere.

Brilliant. Think there's a few in Dawlish, was chatting to a lad on the train home from Exeter a few weeks back said his family are ex Banbury now all in Dawlish. We've been down there since 2015

Nice one. My brother in law is a City fan in Weymouth, does Kayak hires on the beach. Was in Minehead at the weekend for a boys weekend with Cov mates, seen a fair few other lads in Cov tops walking round Butlins. Took my trainers to do the Parkrun on the prom but didn't get up in time

We should have a supporters group! I had no idea there was so many of us down here in amongst all the rugby lads!

I'm in Exeter but will be watching in north Devon (Combe Martin) with the old man as he can't make games anymore. We should arrange all Devon sky blues to meet up and watch a match that's on TV next season!

Yes definitely. Someone central like Exeter or Newton would be great. I used to deliver to Combe Martin, burnt a clutch out on the hills near there

Yes mate, there's enough pubs in Exeter that show sport, and we should be on Sky a lot more next year being in the premier League and everything


Additional: yeah the roads in combe Martin are a nightmare, especially in the winter. Used to get snow/iced in all the time!

Brilliant. Maybe the admin on here can add a Devon or SW supporters group section. I see Nuneaton and NW has one

FB is a good starting point. A Dorset Supporters group was set up this way a few years back, it has 120 plus members now. They arrange meet ups in pubs to watch matches that are on Sky etc.
