Despite their win over Aldershot, Exeter City remain in next to bottom position in the Third Division South it seems hardly fair to criticise after a clear cut win, but City have played much better this season and lost and Aldershot were by far and away the worst side seen this season. In one early spell Aldershot played some delightful to watch football, but it was football without punch and the result was that Hunter had his quietest game of the season, The shambling, mistake laden manner in which City move forward would have made little impression on a defence any better than Aldershot's jumblers. against this pitifully poor collection City should have gone a long way towards squaring their goal average, Corner after corner, scramble after scramble in the Aldershot goalmouth but keeping pace was error after error of the City forwards, It should have been 6-0 but City managed only three, Harvey scored the first with a 24th minute penalty. Atkinson headed the second in the 53rd minute and Currie two minutes from the end scored with a 20 yard drive, On this form City will not pull away from the bottom.
