Exeter City Football Club ( /ˈɛksɪtə ˈsɪti/) is an English professional football club, based in Exeter, that plays in Football League One. 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.
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 2010–11 season City's home kit is supplied by Carbrini Sportswear and it consists of red and white shirts, black shorts, and black socks.
Exeter City FC was formed from two predecessor clubs, Exeter United F.C. and St Sidwell's United. Exeter United was a football club from Exeter, Devon, that played between 1890 and 1904. In 1904, Exeter United lost 3–1 to local rivals St Sidwell's United and after the match it was agreed that the two clubs should become one. The new team took the name 'Exeter City' and continued to play at Exeter United's ground, St James Park, where Exeter City still play today. Exeter United was formed from the cricket team of the same name and were one of the first football teams with the moniker 'United'. St Sidwell's United (which had also been known as St Sidwell's Wesleyans and St Sidwell's Old Boys) was a club that had formed from the regulars who frequented the Foresters Inn in Sidwell Street, Exeter, although the public house was always known as the Drum and Monkey. The team played in St Sidwell's old colours of green and white.
Exeter (i/ˈɛksɨtər/ EK-si-tər) is a historic city in Devon, England. It lies within the ceremonial county of Devon, of which it is the county town as well as the home of Devon County Council. Currently the administrative area has the status of a non-metropolitan district, and is therefore under the administration of the County Council. The city is on the River Exe, about 37 miles (60 km) northeast of Plymouth, and 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Bristol. According to the 2001 Census, its population in that year was 111,076, while the mid-2010 estimate was 119,600.
Exeter was the most south-westerly Roman fortified settlement in Britain. Its Exeter Cathedral, founded in the early 12th century, became Anglican at the time of the 16th century Reformation.
Exeter has been identified as one of the top ten most profitable locations for a business to be based. The city has good transport links, with Exeter St David's railway station, Exeter Central railway station, the M5 motorway and Exeter International Airport connecting the city both nationally and internationally. Although a popular tourist destination, the city is not dominated by tourism.
Warum ist dieses Leben nur so schwer zu ertragen ?
Warum bin ich gezwungen über alles zu klagen ?
Klopapier und Salami, Fenster und Zigarette
Alle Dinge sind anders, als ich sie gerne hätte
Mal zu kurz, mal zu kalt
Mal zu hoch, zu süß. Zu alt
Ich will meine Extrawurst ?
Gebt mir meine Extrawurst !
Wo ist meine Extrawurst ?
Ich will meine Extrawurst !
Könnten Sie das Spiegelei bitte beidseitig braten ?
Und schön viele Kartoffeln, aber keine Tomaten !
Sagen Sie, ist da Speck drin ? Den vertrag ich nicht, schade !
Dann nur eine Banane, aber eine gerade !
Noch mehr Brot, nicht so scharf !
Zu viel Senf und falls ich darf :
Ich will meine Extrawurst ?
Gebt mir meine Extrawurst !
Wo ist meine Extrawurst ?
Ich will meine Extrawurst !
