ECFC 1994/95


Squad photo from the 1994/95 season in which Exeter finished last in Division 3, placing 22nd. The Grecians exited the FA Cup in the Second Round, and the League Cup in the First Round.

The Grecians, who almost went out of business in mid-season, finished bottom of Division Three but kept their league status because Conference champions Macclesfield Town were unable to meet the league's stadium capacity requirements.
