Tisdale's side are currently 13th in League One

Exeter boss Paul Tisdale has insisted the club will be able to cope when midfielder Ryan Harley leaves in May.

The 26-year-old, who signed for Swansea in January before being loaned back to the Grecians, scored both their goals in Tuesday's 2-2 draw with Carlisle.

Tisdale told BBC Devon: "It's the case that players take the opportunity Exeter gives and they move on.

"Someone else takes their place so there'll be someone else, I hope, to take Ryan's place."

Tisdale continued: "Ryan's doing very well, he scored two extremely good goals in the first half and had more shots on target."

Harley has been key to Exeter's success this season, scoring 14 goals in 33 appearances for the Devon club.

The midfielder penned a three-and-a-half-year deal with Swansea in January, before immediately returning to St James Park on loan until the end of the current campaign.
