Anthony Scully hopes he can extend his stay at Exeter City after his impressive start to life at the League Two club.

The 27-year-old Irish forward moved to St James Park as a free agent last month on a deal that runs until next summer.

Since the former Shrewsbury Town and Lincoln City player's arrival, Exeter have gone on a five-game unbeaten run in all competitions.

Scully scored on his debut in the 1-0 win over Rotherham United and in Tuesday's 2-0 win over previously unbeaten Crewe Alexandra.

"I want to hopefully stay here for many more years to be honest because I absolutely love it," he told BBC Radio Devon.

"I've only been here a month but, I couldn't be happier."

Having had a tough start to the season where they won just one of their opening eight League Two matches following relegation, Exeter have hit a rich vein of form.

After Scully's debut goal earned a win over Rotherham they have gone on to beat League One side Oxford United on penalties in the Jersey Mike's Trophy and earned a first away win since January against Scully's former side Shrewsbury.

A draw at Colchester United was then followed by Tuesday's impressive win over previously unbeaten Crewe Alexandra.

Scully says those results are due to the positivity he has seen in his short time at the club:

"From what I see each day in training, the way the lads train, how hard the staff work in terms of putting sessions on, the detail that goes into everything, these results aren't a fluke," he added.

"At the end you can only control what you can control, and if we keep keeping our standards high and the detail is there and the application is there, there's no reason why this run can't continue.

"Football changes all the time, so all we can control is how we act every day in training, and since I've come in the standards have been brilliant, really, really high.

"So it's no surprise why we've gone on the run we have."

Off the field Scully also says he feels settled.

His wife and young children have joined him in Devon as he plays for a club his father Tony spent a brief spell at 22 years ago while on loan from Notts County.

"I've loved absolutely everything," he said.

"Whether it be the city itself, whether it be the area, the group, the lads, the staff, the training ground, the fans, the stadium, as a package it's been absolutely amazing and there's not a single fault that I have.

"I've got my wife and kids down now with me, they moved down on Monday so I'm in a great place and there's nothing else that I could want at the minute, everything's going really well."
