Reader, this is a cry for help. Over the last couple of years, I’ve lost count of the times I’ve told myself and others that I, for the want of a better phrase, can’t be arsed. Supporting Plymouth Argyle doesn’t bring me the joy it used to, and I imagine the same can...

In some derby games, both teams come in with confidence. I remember Exeter City coming to Home Park in 2017 on the back of a supreme unbeaten run, before being turned over 3-0 by Derek Adams’ promotion-winning Plymouth Argyle. At other times, both teams are...

First of all, I hope you had an enjoyable international break. I spent mine getting drenched watching England in Latvia, before managing to visit a couple more countries on the way home. And if you’re thinking “has this guy really set up the introduction like this to...

Plymouth Argyle’s record against their former managers hasn’t always been terrific. More recently, their record specifically against Scouse ex-managers has been diabolical. Since their respective departures from Home Park, Argyle have played teams managed by Ryan Lowe...

“I take two steps forward, I take two steps back.” Not my words, Carol, the words of Paula Abdul in her 1989 hit Opposites Attract. And if we’re taking the title as literally as possible, perhaps Ms Abdul has a point. Perhaps that’s why Simon Hallett, a chairman keen...

Have you recovered from last Saturday yet? I’d forgive you if you hadn’t. I can’t say I have, and I imagine that statement applies to most associated with Plymouth Argyle. Last weekend’s trip to Kenilworth Road saw the Greens beat Luton Town in the most remarkable...
