BRIEF HISTORY of the EXETER CITY FOOTBALL CLUB
(reproduced from 'Wikipedia' pages)
Exeter City Football Club is an English professional football club, based in Exeter, that
plays in Football League Two, the fourth tier in the English football league system. The
club is owned by the club's supporters through the Exeter City Supporters' Trust. The
club was a member of the Football League from 1920 to 2003. Following five seasons in
the Conference National, Exeter were promoted back to League Two for the 2008–09 season
and immediately achieved automatic promotion to League One for the 2009–10 season. In
the 2011–12 season of League One Exeter City were relegated to League Two, finishing
twenty-third with 48 points.
Exeter City was founded in 1904 and began playing on an old field used for fattening pigs,
St James Park (not to be confused with the homes of Newcastle United or Brackley Town).
Exeter remain at St James Park to this day. The club is nicknamed "The Grecians". For the
2014–15 season City's home kit is supplied by Joma and it consists of red and white shirts,
black shorts, and white socks. City and Brazilian side Fluminense are partner clubs.
