Plymouth Argyle (a)

[Dr Feelgood]

Another nail im afraid

[Manwork04]

Inevitable.

[guest1269]

Zonal marking or just s***e marking - either way it will put us down

[1HorshamCobbler]

Pity, we have made a game of it second half. More encouraging raging than recent performances, 2 big games coming up though

[NTFC Nut]

As long as we keep conceding 2+ goals every game, there's only one way we're going. It's not like we're being done by worldies, either. We're actually lucky Nouble hasn't has two or three himself.

[Shoemaker]

It’s a shame but inevitable.
We couldn’t sign the players needed to compete at league one level
We have to face facts that under the current ownership we will only ever be a league two side masquerading in league one.
No point getting rid of Keith as he will be ok next season.

Into the Bottom Four ......for the duration

Bolger is an absolute bloody clogger, isn't he?

Inclined to agree with this but my god, Keith frustrates me sometimes. If we'd been getting the ball into Hoskins and Korboa's feet in the first half like we have done in the second, we had a chance today, and you could see that was what we needed to do after 15 mins.

[1HorshamCobbler]

Frustrated more than anything, we really should hVe had something from that game but we managed to lose it. Arnold partly at fault for the 2nd but we left the player unmarked too!

[wazzacobbler]

Absolutely agree Nut.

Some positives this week for me in the way we played for around 15 minutes in the 2nd half. We need more of that if we are to ever win a game again though.

Defence and goalkeeper at fault for both goals which is so poor.

[Manwork04]

Plymouth had nearly 70% of the ball, you can’t give another team that much opportunity week in week out and expect to win.
What’s more shocking is Curle has no clue what his best team is, how can he leave our best two players on the bench in Adams and Marshall.

[sxcobbler]

As much as we have been clamouring to see matches....it's definitely a blessing that we are missing this season.

We look like breaking our normal record of only  getting relegated in our second L1 season.

You have to question our recruiting policy over the transfer window.

[Welly Cobb]

I think it's on the record on the Chron to say we didn't land our top targets.

And we got more shots on target today than the last 3 games combined.

[wazzacobbler]

I think it's on the record on the Chron to say we didn't land our top targets.

To me this says that we were either looking at the wrong players or we weren't prepared to pay enough to land those targets.

[Welly Cobb]

I dunno about that maybe, I think we probably should be looking at players that attracting interest from other clubs really, but I imagine we won't offer a lot because our wage budget is at a minimum substancially enough below £2.5m wage cap. If you look at crowd sizes, it's no longer like League two where we up there, there's a LOT of clubs that absolutely dwarf us at this level, or are sugar daddied.

[sixfields starling]

I actually thought that was our best performance of the season so far the league and we were unlucky to lose, at least deserved a point. It was nice to see us playing out from the back, for a change, rather than hoofball and passed the ball around nice at times. Ultimately, two defensive mistakes cost us dear and we are nowhere near the standard of last years solid unit. Still ,some glimmer that things could soon improve results wise, hopefully starting Tuesday.

At least a definite improvement on previous games apart from Shrewsbury. Korboa had a so-so 1st half but much better 2nd; scored a good goal. Hoskins did well driving thru midfield. Midfield ok Watson battle hard and Sowerby offered some quality. Based on 2nd half both Benny and Chuck seemed to offer more so might as well play both next Tuesday. We do miss a dominant striker and half back.  Pity that McW went off
as he did ok - Racic out of position at RWB -would play him at as defensive Mid Field? Underlying impression I got was that the team was a little unlucky to concede a 2nd and deserved a point overall.

For the life of me, I couldn't understand why at least one of these didn't come on.

It beggars belief mate, I just don’t get Curles team selections
