VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM

Exeter manager Paul Tisdale told BBC Radio Devon:

"We gave them a two goal start which was a lot to hang onto and it was too much for us to come back into it.

"I'm accountable for the performance as it's my team out there, but the players are responsible for their performances.

"Things will settle down - it always takes a couple of months for me to see the pattern in this team
