-- Troy Brown resumes full training. I'm a bit worried. His corner taking, free kick taking, long throws, technique, decisions and teamwork ratings are all down. Better than Marking/Tackling being down, etc. Hopefully that recovers. Some people made offers for Brown this month and he's unsettled by all the transfer speculation around him. He's not going anywhere but I can't seem to convince him of that.

Exeter(12-2-14, 11th) @ Ipswich(17-7-4, 2nd)

We're huge 4:6 favorites today, Exeter are 7:2 dogs. We're 3-0-1 lifetime against Exeter, winning 3:0 on the road back in September.

GK: Murphy
D: Kirkland/Fryers/Gudmundsson/McKerr
DMC: Paulo
MC: Donnelly/Bennett
AMC: Mills
ST: Khan/Constantino

Exeter are led by Sanchez Watt with 9 goals and Luke Daley with 6. We're tired, real tired. We attack today, lets get an early lead.

10': Mills with a steal in the midfield while Exeter try to set up an attack, he hits it forward to Constantino quickly, he's charging towards the area out right, draws the only two defenders back, he passes across to a wide open Khan who takes a step into the area and beats the keeper easily! 1-0

11': There's a charge down the right by Donnelly, he tries a cross, its blocked. Paulo picks it up about 25 yards out. He sidesteps a charging defender and shoots from there. Its a rocket that looks like its going wide right but it had an incredible bend on it and it bends into the right corner of the net!!! Incredible shot!!! 2-0

45': Exeter takes their second shot (they had a wild one early). This one is on target, turned over the goal by Murphy. We clear the corner, they push it back in and earn a second corner. This one is headed back for a third corner. Fourth one is headed over by them.

HALF: Two early goals then lots of boredom, sounds ok by me! We shoot 5 times, they shoot 3.

68': Troy Brown in for Gudmundsson, reserve Jack Hughes in for Kirkland at DL.

80': Danny Graham in for Matthew Khan.

84': They have it just past midfield, there's a long cross from the left to the right side of the field, then a long ball ahead into the area, their man Daley runs onto it, our defense is really really slack allowing that one, and Daley puts it into the net easily. Quick strike and very poor defending to allow it. 2-1

92': They have (hopefully) one last attack, a cross into the area, its headed around 3 times before we finally make the clearance.

That is it. Exeter only shot 2 times in the second half, a nice dull win after the early 2 goals.

Ipswich 2 : 1 Exeter

Man of the Match: Paulo (8.3)
Goals: Paulo, Khan (7.1)
Assists: Constantino (6.9). Paulo's goal is unassisted.
Notables: Kirkland (7.4), Gudmundsson (7.3)

Stoke is only able to manage a draw against Swansea today and that allows us to take over first place! We're tied with Huddersfield with 61 points, but we've got the goal differential edge. Stoke is 1 point back in 3rd, QPR 4 points back in 4th.
