Exeter manager Gary Caldwell said:
“I think in the last few weeks it’s been coming, I think we’ve dominated games, starting creating more chances, and it’s been about being more ruthless and killing teams off,”
“Since I’ve came to club, Josh has been tremendous, and the one thing I think he could add to his game was goals, so to see him score again is brilliant.
"I think we’ve seen James’ quality today, his fitness levels are improving every week, his physicality, the way he held up the ball for the team, and his finishing off both feet is exceptional.
