There’s currently much wailing and gnashing of teeth among the Argyle faithful, following Saturday’s dismal performance at home to Ipswich. A combination of comedy defending and lacklustre movement in the midfield, aided by a refereeing performance of startling incompetence has brought all the doom-merchants out of the woodwork, along with the vicious scapegoaters. [...]

In the end, I suppose, the result was more important than the performance. Two games into a crazy, crazy period of five games in fourteen days (including a double trip to Sheffield - did the FA think we were going to *stay up there?), Argyle needed to bounce back from their undeserved defeat at [...]

Amid all the strangely new-found concern about indebtedness and clubs being used as cash-cows by overseas investors, who should be there popping up in the background but Premiership Chief Executive Richard Scudamore. As well as denying that indebtedness was a problem (his bizarre argument was that as long as the level of your debt [...]

There’s a definite sense that Sturrock is at last getting this Argyle side how he wants it. His uncompromising stance over some of the bigger egos in the squad, coupled with his insistence on “honesty” from his matchday eleven is starting to show dividends: and this third win on the bounce bore all the [...]

It’s irresistible force meets immovable post time tomorrow at HP - something’s gotta give. Argyle’s home form has been abysmal thus far, with only a point from the opening day 2-2 with Wolves to show from the three games, while Forest’s away form is even worse: played three, lost three, three goals scored, ten [...]

Thanks to holiday, and now a dose of pleurisy, coupled with a torn inter-costal muscle, I have missed Argyle’s last two home games. Apparently they have been our worst performances for some time. We now sit ignominiously at the foot of the CCC and our rivals are rubbing their hands in glee as [...]

Following our humiliation in front of a teatime nation a fortnight ago, coupled with the news that striker Jermaine Easter had unspecified personal problems which could only be resolved by leaving Argyle and leaving Plymouth, it’s fair to say that even the cheeriest of Argyle supporters was in low spirits. It’s never nice to [...]

I hate the South East. I mean, I *really hate it. From the moment one of the infamous Reading FC stewards yelled “Oi! No cameras allowed!” while I was taking pictures (through the stupid extra netting they put up at the MadStad) of the flipping warm-up, you could sense that the afternoon was [...]

For reasons too complicated to go into here, I have failed to provide a full preview for tomorrow’s game at the Madjeski. Argyle’s creditable performance at home to Wolves on Saturday has been - at least in part- undone by their capitulation at the Kennel. It will be very interesting to see how [...]

Seven years ago, Luton came down to Home Park for a game that, some would say, was the catalyst for all the success the club has enjoyed in that period. Luton were expecting to take the division by storm and had set a cracking pace: Argyle had recovered after a shaky start and were [...]
